EKKO
PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
The leaf must be fixed firmily on the hinges to the pillars, must not be
flexible during the movement and must move without frictions.
Before the installation of EKKO 350A / EKKO 500A, verify all
dimensions etc.
There’s no need for any modification, if the gate is like that shown
in Fig. 1.
Gate features must be uniformed with the standards and laws in
force. The gate can be automated only if it is in a good condition and
its conditions comply with the EN 12604 norm.
- The gate leaf does not have to have a pedestrian opening. In the
opposite case it is necessary to take the appropriate steps, in
accordance with EN 12453 norm (for instance; by preventing the
operation of the motor when the pedestrian opening is opened, by
installing a safety microswitch connected with the control panel).
- No mechanical stop shall be on top of the gate, since mechanical
stops are not safe enough.
FIXING THE ACTUATOR ATTACHMENT TO THE COLUMN
To obtain a correct movement of the leaf gate it is necessary to respect
the measures (to see the TABLES of the measures).
COLUMN ATTACHMENT FOR EKKO 350A OPERATOR
If the column is in iron, the attack can be screwed directly using four
metric screws M8.
If the column is in concrete, the attack can be fixed with four expansion
screws Ø 8 mm (Fig. 2-3).
In the case you have a wall parallel with the open gate, you must
provide a niche in which to place the operator.
EKKO 500A OPERATOR CONNECTION COLUMN
If the column is made of iron its connection can be directly welded.
If the column is made of concrete, use the plate as shown in Fig. 5 and
fix it with four 8 mm Ø expansion screws.
Another possible intervention is to wall up the connection in the column
by welding a clamp to the base as shown in Fig. 6.
Continuing with the installation, the gate pulling connection must be
welded on the leaf, complying with the required dimensions (Fig. 7).
If the wall is parallel to the open gate, it may be necessary to prepare a
niche to provide a seat to the operator.
