SLIDING GATE OPENER DESIGNED FOR RESIDENTIAL APPLICATION KIT PL600/PL1000 The strongest solution SLIDING GATE OPENERS for sliding gates PL600/PL1000 electro-mechanical sliding gate openers are designed for residential application. Stylish appearance of the gear motors with innovative design of motor release by the key in case of power failure.
This manual is exclusively for qualified installation Do not try to manually open or close the gates before you personnel. Powertech Electronics Inc. is not responsible for release the gear motor. improper installation and failure to comply with local electrical and building regulations.
2) Product Description and Applications 2.1 Applications PL600/PL1000 is applied for residential automation of sliding gates. PL600/PL1000 has to be operated with electricity and it’s forbidden to be operated by back-up batteries for normal use. Back-up batteries (optional) are only allowed for emergent operation when there is a power failure, and the gearmotor can be released by the key to move the gate manually.
2.3.1 PL600/ PL1000 Electromechanical Gearmotor PL600/PL1000 consists of an electronic control unit and Figure 3 connector for the optional radio control receiver. The gearmotor could be released manually by special release keys when there is power failure. Besides, it has a back-up battery (optional) which can be used during Fuse knob the power failure as well.
Figure 5 2.3.3 PH-1 Photocells The pair of PH-1 photocells has to be installed on the wall and connected to the control panel. The function of the photocells is to detect the obstacles found on the optical axis between the transmitter (TX) and the receiver (RX).
3.1.2 Motors, Components and Its Installation in Illustration The installation procedure of PL600/PL1000 may be changed due to various accessories and quantities installed. No wiring cables for accessories are supplied with KIT PL600/PL1000. 3.2 Power Connection The users are advised to read the installation manual carefully before going for it. After getting to know all accessories and their positions, suggest starting from cable conduit arrangement to prevent the cables from being broken or damaged.
3.3 Preparation for Motor Installation PL600/PL1000 is not applicable to a gate which is inefficient or unsafe, neither to solve the defects due to incorrect installation nor poor maintenance. Check the following items before going for installation: 1). Make sure the weight and dimensions of the gate conform to the operation range of PL600/PL1000. Don’t use PL600/PL1000 if the gate specifications do not meet the requirements.

Gate with rack: the distances indicated in Figure 13. Figure 13 50mm 50mm 10) To install the limit switch brackets, the rack must project from the axis of the pinion by distances indicated in Figure 14 (Left opening) and Figure 15 (Right opening). Figure 14 (Left opening) 170mm 200mm...
3.3.1 Installation of the Gearmotor The PL600/PL1000 can be installed in two situations: 1). Installing on gates without rack; in this condition must be installed first, followed by PRK-1 rack. 2). Installing on a gate with rack; in this condition must be connected to the existing rack. 3.3.1.1 Installing on Gates without Rack 1).

11). Release the gearmotor by using the release key if necessary. 12). Fully open the gate and place the first piece of the rack on the pinion so that it projects from the axis of the pinion by distance followed as Figure 14 or Figure 15, which means, the space reserved for the limit switch brackets. 13).
3.3.1.2 Installing on Gates with Rack 1). Dig the foundations based on “Preparation for Motor Installation” and please notice the distances indicated in Figure 12. 2). Lay the conduits for the power cables and leave 30-50 cm longer as Figure 24. 3).
12). Keep 1~2 mm space as Figure 29 between the rack and pinion so that the gate does not weigh on the gearmotor. Continually install the other pieces of the rack until the racks are sufficient for work. 13). Release the gearmotor by using the release key if necessary. 14).
3). Wiring connection: TX: Connect the (1) and (2) terminals on the transmitter with the terminals GND and PH+ on the PL600/ 1000 PCB. RX: Connect the (1), (2) and NC terminals on the receiver with the terminals GND、PH+ and PH1 on the PCB600/1000 PCB.
5). Connect the four wires of the light and the antenna to the PCB terminals and place the wires into the conduit if necessary. See Figure 3.3.3 (5). 6). Tighten the four screws back on the light base. Figure 3.3.3 (6) 7).
5). Breach the three holes at the bottom and mark the points by the holes as reference. 6). Drill the holes in the wall and fix the bottom to the wall by three screws. See Figure 3.3.4 (5). 7). Connect the electric wires to the terminals as shown in Figure 3.3.4(6), and it’s not required to distinguish any polarity.
