INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR INSTALLATION
•
Before commencing installation read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS chapter carefully.
•
The PROFESSIONAL FITTER who installs the control unit is responsible for performing risk analysis and regulating the automation’s safety devices consequentially.
•
Before commencing installation, check whether further devices or materials are needed to complete the automation in order to suit the specifi c situation in which it will be used.
•
The Fitter must check that the temperature range declared on the operator (see Technical Data Chap.) is suited to the place in which the device is installed.
•
The operator cannot be fi tted on gates with separate pedestrian access, unless operator function is prevented when the door is open.
•
Before installing the operator, ensure that the gate is in good mechanical conditions, correctly balanced and that it opens and closes correctly.
•
Ensure that there is no risk of entrapment between the open gate and surrounding parts following the opening movement.
•
A
ny normally open/off buttons installed for the activation of the operator must be positioned so that they are within view of the gate but distant from moving parts. Unless said commands
operate using keys, they must be positioned at a minimum height of 1.5m and not accessible to unauthorised persons.
•
Once the automation has been installed, ensure that it is correctly adjusted and that the protection systems and release work properly.
•
It is strictly forbidden to motorise a gate that is not already effi cient and secure as the automation cannot resolve faults caused by incorrect installation or poor maintenance of the gate.
•
During installation, make constant reference to harmonised standards EN 12453 and EN12445.
•
E
nsure that the individual devices to be installed are compatible with
GE UNI R
control unit, paying careful attention to the points raised in the TECHNICAL DATA chapter. Do not proceed if even just
one device is unsuitable for the intended use.
•
Ensure that the place of installation of the central unit is not prone to fl ooding, does not contain sources of heat or naked fl ames, fi res or hazard situations in general.
•
During installation, protect control unit components in order to prevent liquids (e.g. rain) and/or foreign bodies (earth, gravel, etc) penetrating inside.
•
Connect the control unit to a power supply line created in compliance with current regulations and earthed and fi tted with a power supply sectioning switch.
•
The control unit may be fi tted with a pair of buffer batteries (optional); the installation, maintenance and replacement of buffer batteries must be performed by a PROFESSIONAL FITTER.
•
Wrapping materials must be disposed of in compliance with local regulations.
•
Wear protective goggles when making holes for clamping.
•
I
n the event of work at heights of over 2m from the ground, for example for the installation of the indicator lamp or aerial, fi tters must be equipped with ladders, safety harnesses, protective helmet,
