4. Mechanical Installation
The PY300DC will handle gate weighting up to 300Kg and up to 8m if the proper installation procedures
have been followed.
The PY300DC gate operator operates by forcing a drive rack by a drive gear. The entire configuration is
shown in the diagram below. The gate operator must be installed on the inside of the gate.
Fig.1
Gate preparation
Be sure the gate is properly installed and slides smoothly before installing the PY300DC sliding gate
operator. The gate must be plumb, level, and move freely.
Conduit
In order to protect the wires, use PVC conduit for low voltage power cable and control wires. Conduit
must be preset into the concrete when it is poured. Wires within the conduit shall be located or protected
so that no damage can result from contact with any rough or sharp part.
Concrete pad
The base unit of the gate operator requires a concrete pad in order to maintain proper stability. The
concrete pad should be approximately 400mm x 250mm x 200mm deep in order to provide for adequate
weight and structure to insure proper stable installation.
Anchors (see Fig.2)
You can use anchor bolts, anchors, washers and nuts. These anchors must be set into the concrete when
it is poured or you can use wedge anchors to fasten the operator.
