Forematic F550 Manuals

F550/F560 doc. B05 P1 doc. B05 iss V1.1 F550/F560 PICO installation manual Description The F550 & F560 sets are based around the PICO 24Vdc sliding gate motors. The F550 is for domestic gates. The F560 is for light industrial gate applications such as an office development. A toothed rack fixed to the gate engages with a pinion on the motor. Drive is delivered through a worm drive gearbox. The gate cannot be moved while the gearbox is engaged. A key override disengages the motor from the drive pinion. Used in exceptional circumstances, like power failure. Two double button rolling code remotes are included. Buttons can be programmed to open fully for vehicles or partial opening for pedestrians. The 2nd button can open another gate. Up to 16 remotes can be registered. A safety photo beam is included to detect vehicles. Further safety devices may be added. Operation On an input from a remote or an external control, the gate will open fully or partially. The closed and fully open positions are determined by limit switches acting on ‘skis’ fitted to the rack. If the remote is activated while the gate is running, it will stop. The next remote activation will re-start in the other direction. For safety, the gate slows at ends of travel. If the automatic close function is enabled, the gate will re-close after a delay. If the photo beam is interrupted during closing, the gate stops then re-opens. The gate will stay open while the beam is interrupted. The motor has a stall sensor to detect physical blocks in the gates path. If an obstacle is detected in either direction, the gate will stop and reverse direction. Specifications Supply 220-240Vac 50Hz 2.5A Pinion Mod.4 15 teeth Speed 16mm/sec Duty cycle 25% 20 times/hr Gate size F550 – 600kg F560 – 900kg Motor power F550 – 110W F560 – 150W Temp O/L 120°C Temp’ -20°C to 50°C Protection IP44 Physical Protection Gates must be of a robust construction to be automated without attendance. Wheels on which the gate roll must be free running & well maintained on clean level ground tracks. Support rollers must be adjusted and maintained for smooth running. Gates must have physical stops at both extremes to prevent derailment hazards. Cables must be sufficiently protected against abrasion that could lead to a hazard due to exposure of electrical conductors. Electrical supplies must be protected by an earth leakage device. There must a disconnect switch outside the gate area. ‘Automatic gate’ signs are required on both sides of the gate warning against risk of contact injury. A pedestrian side gate is preferred for regular pedestrian access. User Instructions It is the site owner or manager’s responsibility to ensure that only trained people operate the gate, and ensure all operators are aware of gate hazards. Operators must take responsibility for the safety of any person within the hazard area. Never let children play near gates in motion. Keep the gate area clear of objects. Examine the gate for imbalance or signs of wear. Have gate properly maintained and repaired by qualified personnel when necessary. Manufacturers are not responsible for injury resulting from failure to meet the requirements in this manual. An adequate clearance must be provided around the gate to prevent entrapment. Photobeam Remotes Safety warnings Automatic gates can be hazardous. It is the responsibility of the home owner to be aware of the risks and provide, adequate warning of hazards. Users should be given instruction on the safe use of the automatic gate. This manual is written for engineers aware of construction criteria for automatic gates and accident prevention criteria in force in the automation industry. Only qualified persons may do installation or maintain work on this barrier that may change its risk assessment. Turn off the power before working on the gate. We recommended signage to warn users and members of the public of risk of injury to pedestrians. Do not permit public access to the gate area. Do not use remotes when out of sight of the gate. Do not let children or untrained people use remotes. Do not let unsupervised children near the gate.  Description 1  User notices  Safety warnings  Warranty  Site preparation 2  Alignment  Motor & rack  Ducts & Cabling  Setup 3  Quick setup  Connections  DIP switches  Adjustment  Remotes  Wiring 4  Universal wiring  Examples  Certificate of conformity  Warranty
