DESCRIPTION
The EKOSWING automated system for swing gates is an electro-mechanical non-
reversing actuator that transmits motion to the leaf via a worm screw system.
The actuator is available in 12V DC and 230V AC versions.
The non-reversing system ensures the leaf is mechanically locked when the motor is
not operating. A convenient and safe release system with customised key makes it
possible to manually move the leaf in the event of a malfunction or of a power failure.

The correct operation and the declared specifications only apply if
TAU accessories and safety devices are used.
In the absence of a mechanical clutch, the use of a control unit with an
adjustable electronic clutch, or the installation of a sensitive edge, is
required in order to ensure crush-proof safety.
The EKOSWING automated system was designed and built for con-
trolling vehicle access. Avoid any other use whatever.

USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
For The installation of blank swing gates,
functioning cannot be guaranteed in the
presence of wind.
Preliminary checks
Prior to installing the automation, make all structural modifications in order to ensure
safety distances and protect and segregate areas in which people may be exposed to
the risk of crushing, shearing, dragging or similar dangers.
• Make sure the existing structure is sufficiently sturdy and stable;
• the mechanical parts must conform to the provisions of current Safety Standards;
• leaf length in compliance with the actuator specifications;
• regular and uniform movement of the leaves, without any friction and dragging
during their entire travel;
• stiff hinges in good conditions;
• presence of both opening and closing mechanical limit stops;
• presence of an efficient earthing for electrical connection of the actuator.
Perform any necessary metalwork job before installing the automated system.
The condition of the gate structure directly affects the reliability and safety of
the automated system.
Installation dimensions (pict.4)
Determine the fitting position of the actuator with reference to pict.4.
Check with care if the distance between the open leaf and any obstacles (walls, fenc-
es etc.) is higher than the actuator dimensions.

When measurement "C" is greater/smaller than 20 mm, increase/diminish measure-
ment "B" by the difference (e.g.: if C= 25mm, increase "B" by 5mm), making sure that
it does not exceed the limits shown in the table.
If the pillar dimensions or the hinge position do not allow the installation of the actua-
tor, a niche on the pillar, as shown in pict. 5, should be created in order to maintain
the A dimension as determined. The niche should be dimensioned in such a way to
enable easy installation, actuator rotation and operation of the release device.
