11.1 Speed limit curve
The speed limit curve is the characteristic curve which defines the maximum permissible door
speed V
max as a function of the total door panel weight.
According to EN 81, the maximum kinetic energy of the door in the closing direction must
not exceed 10 joules. W
KIN = 1/2 m ∙ v² = 10 J.
Example from the following speed limit curve:
Total door panel weight m = 120 kg => Vmax = 0.4 m/s.

Note
The speed can be adjusted between 0 (corresponds to 0.10
m/s) and 100% (corresponds to
