    Be aware of the international, federal, and local codes in your area and how best to handle hazardous waste materials. The pump pack fluid, found in all hydraulic HySecurity operators, can be recycled. Gear oil, found in HySecurity electromechanical gate operators, can also be recycled. If the fluids are mixed or contaminated with any solvents or other chemicals, they become hazardous waste.

    Code (NEC) - Article 250 requires a separate earth ground in addition to the required equipment ground. HySecurity recommends grounding the operator with a separate earth ground rod (or a similar device in the case of crash products) to shield the operator against electromagnetism and other electrical signals that may cause, erratic operation with, or damage to, the Smart Touch Controller and other electrical parts.

    HySecurity recommends that vehicle detectors be used for free exit and obstruction sensing logic only. The exception is in parking or barrier arm applications where detectors may also be used to close the gate. In applications employing our swing, vertical lift, or sliding gate operators, closing logic cannot be used except when the anti-tailgate logic is employed.

    The Smart Touch Controller provides an interface for up to four different vehicle detector functions. Standard box type 11 pin (24 VDC or 24 VAC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner, but HySecurity HY-5A mini-detector modules plug directly into the Smart Touch Controller, making field installation much faster and enhancing performance. The detector communicates with the Smart Touch Controller microprocessor to achieve the following benefits: • Loop frequency is automatically set and monitored by the Smart Touch Controller.

    Attempting to slow gate speed by changing a valve setting will cause inefficiency and increased heating of the hydraulic system, which will degrade system performance and also may result in premature system failure. NOTE: If the gate speed must be changed, contact your HySecurity distributor or HySecurity Tech Support. Extremely cold weather is unlikely to seriously affect the gate speed because HySecurity employs a special grade of hydraulic fluid (Uniflow), which maintains a linear viscosity over a broad temperature range. This high quality...

    If the power is three-phase, verify counter-clockwise electric motor rotation. To reverse rotational direction, switch any two AC lines. NOTE: The VFD motor Controller displays trip and fault codes. Check to see if any error codes appear on the VFD display. most VFD issues are resolved through the STC software and modbus interface. 1. Check the hydraulic fluid level by removing the plug in the pump reservoir. If necessary, add fluid at this location until the level is about ½ inch below the filler hole. 2. Unplug the hydraulic hoses and run the pump; if the pressure is low, adjust the Pressure Relief Valve. 3. If the Pressure Gauge does not respond to adjustment of the Pressure Relief Valve, you may need to completely remove the valve, depress the plunger at the nose end with a blunt tool (e.g., a hex key) and blow on it to remove any debris. Contact HySecurity Technical Support first (see page 2) before performing this procedure. PROBLEM 3: The gate only opens or only closes. 1. Verify that no external device is commanding the gate to open or close by watching the LEDs associated with each input. 2. If the gate only opens, the Open Valve is probably stuck and needs to be checked for debris and cleared. 3. If the gate only closes, the Solenoid Coil may not be energizing or it may be defective. 4.
