Ridder RB50EPLUS User Manual

Running mes and rest mes
A roller screen can be controlled at dierent intervals. The method of control will have an eect on
the operaon and the lifespan of the tube motor.
• Most systems have a maximum running me of the tube motor not more than approximately 4
minutes in one direcon (side-wall screen-height: 2.5m). This makes it possible to open, close
and set a screen system without a thermally stopped tube motor. In operaon the RB50Eᵖˡᵘˢ
usually has a permied duty cycle of 10 minutes and the tube motor is thermally stopped aer
approximately 15 minutes.
• If the roller-screen system is operated one or two mes a day, there is sucient me for the tube
motor to decrease in temperature. The lifespan will not decrease because of this.
• If a roller-screen system is operated too many mes a day, possibly the tube motor temperature
cannot decrease suciently before it is operated again. Because of this the tube motor possibly
operates at a too high temperature and can be thermally stopped. The lifespan will decrease if
the tube motor connuously operates at high temperatures.
6.2 Operaon
• An RB50Eᵖˡᵘˢ tube motor can be operated by a Ridder MotorControl
RMC50 control unit.
• The primary use of Ridder RB50Eᵖˡᵘˢ tube motors will be in automated
roller-screen systems. An RMC50 control unit is compable with an
Automac Control System (ACS) to make operaon together possible.
Refer to the Ridder catalogue or website www.ridder.com for more
informaon. Always refer to the manual(s) of the control components used.
