5 How the Besam SW300/SW150 works
The swing door operator Besam SW300/SW150 uses a DC motor which is connected to the output
shaft by a combination of a worm gear and spur gears. The push- or pull arm system that is connected
to the output shaft opens the door in a surface mounted application.
There are two versions of the operator:
• Besam SW300 for fire door installations which will have an adjustable mechanical spring.
• Besam SW150 without the mechanical spring that is possible to use for non-fire door installations.
No extension units are installed in this version.
In Besam SW300, there is an adjustable spring mechanism, consisting of a helical compression
spring combined with a linkage system including a pressure roller that acts on a cam curve that is
attached to the output shaft. During opening of the door, the compression spring is tensioned by
the rotation of the output shaft. During the closing cycle, the accumulated spring force is transferred
to the output shaft by means of the cam curve and the pressure roller. The transferred spring force
is acting in the closing direction.
The spring force can be adjusted so that there is appropriate force to close the door when it is
manually operated or if there is a power failure.
It is possible to increase the closing force by using the motor in combination with the spring and
thereby increase the door closing force (powered close).
The mechanism consist of:
