3.1 - CHECKING SUITABILITY OF GATE TO BE AUTO-
MATED AND RELATIVE ENVIRONMENT

national standards and that it is suitable for automation. For this check,

•
Ensure that the gate leafs move regularly and smoothly
, by performing
the following test: manually move the leafs in both dir
ections and ensure
that movement is free of friction throughout all points of travel (there
must be no points requiring a different level of force).
• Ensure that the gate leafs are perfectly balanced, by performing the
following test: manually move the leafs to any position; take away the
hands and ensure that the leafs remain stationary.

complete arm rotation and therefore the maximum leaf opening angle.
For this check, refer to point 5 of paragraph 3.2.

3.2 - CHECKING THE PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITS
1 - Suitability of the product for gate automation. For this check,
refer to Graph 1 as follows:
a) - measur
e the width of the gate leaf and determine its weight.
b)
- note these two values in Graph 1 and check the point at which
the two values intersect:
• if the point is located within ar
ea “A” = the gate can be auto-
mated using standard length arms (supplied as standard) or short
arms (the length of the arm is established during the phase prior to
installation - paragraph 3.4);
• if the point is located within ar
ea “B” = the gate can be auto-
mated using standard length arms (supplied as standard);
• if the point is located within ar
ea “C” = this pr
oduct cannot be
used to automate the gate.

- Maximum leaf height. The “ALTO” system can automate leafs with
a height of up to 200 cm.
3 - Maximum leaf width. The “ALTO” system can automate leafs with a
width of up to 160 cm (see Graph 1).
 Maximum leaf weight. The maximum weight of the leaf depends
on its length. To calculate the maximum admissible weight with the
“ALTO” system, proceed as follows:
a) - measur
e the width of the gate leaf and note the value in Graph 1
.
Starting from this value, trace a vertical line until it intersects with the
two traced lines.
b)

maximum admissible weights ar
e shown (depending on the length of
the arm used to install the gearmotor: with standard length arms, the
weight may vary from 110 to 180 kg; with short arms, the weight may
vary fr
om 100 to 150 kg).
5 - Gearmotor overall dimensions. On the basis of the overall dimen-
sions stated in ƄJBGDBJSG@SSGDQDHRRTEjBHDMSRO@BDNMSGDKD@E

following:
• the width of the post must be gr
eater than 80 mm (ƄJ). Caution!
– any lower widths would pr
event installation of the gearmotor.
• the distance between the edge of the post (the side closest to the

greater than 120 mm (ƄJ). Caution! – any lower widths would
prevent installation of the gearmotor.
6 - Gearmotor positioning. Never install the gearmotor upside down
(see ƄJ).
7 - Maximum leaf opening angle. If the gearmotor is installed with a
standard length arm (supplied as standard) a leaf opening angle of
110° is possible. Otherwise, if the short arm is used, the leaf opening
angle is reduced to 90°. The length of the arm is established during
the phase prior to installation - see paragraph 3.4.
8 - Mechanical stops. The gearmotors in the “ALTO” system do not
implement mechanical systems to limit leaf travel on closing or open-
ing. Therefore, to enable installation of the “ALTO” system, some
