PATRIOT Series AUTOMATIC GATE OPERATORS
The Patriot Gate Operator is intended to be installed on vehicular Class I, II, III or IV gates as dened
by UL 325, (the standard that regulates gate operator safety, as established and made effective
March 14, 2003, by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.). Maximum gate load not to exceed 650 pounds
and 16 feet in length.
The Patriot control board was designed with a current sense safety feature. We strongly recommend
other safety devices such as photo eyes, contact sensors etc… to make each particular installation as
safe as possible and reduce the risk of personal injury and/or property damage.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THE SAFETY SECTION OF THIS MANUAL.
The Patriot system design and the accessories recommended are all Solar Friendly meaning that
they require the least amount of energy possible to perform the job they were designed to do. The
solar option allows you to install the gate operator in remote areas or in applications where you prefer
to be solar charged. Solar charging provides additional isolation from lightning that might damage the
unit via the AC power needed for the transformer.
BATTERY REQUIRED FOR OPERATION (Battery not included)
Recommended battery type:
Battery 12-volt, Group U-1; sealed (maintenance free); 30 amp hour minimum.
Using a smaller amp hour battery may cause damage to the charging system.
The wiring harness has two 1/4” ring terminals to connect to battery posts.
CAUTION: Do not install wet cell battery into control box; this type of battery
usually has removable caps used for service and will vent into control box.
The battery is charged using the 120V AC Powered Transformer (PN #520004) OR the Patriot Solar
Panel kit (PN 520025). Typically only one panel will be required. The Patriot gate operator is capable
of a high number of cycles per day. For information on what you can expect from a solar charged
system see the solar charging section of this manual. (page 64) Accessories that are added to your
gate operator must be solar friendly accessories and they will be identied as such.
