5.0 ORIENTATIONS The following orientations are possible:- The factory default is Orientation 2 for single barriers. See section 7.3 for details of converting to other orientations. If barriers are to be paired, (e.g. in a wide entrance of say 6 metres, which requires 2 x 3metre booms, then the pairs must be selected as Orientation 1 &...

6.0 CABLING REQUIREMENTS 6.1 SIMPLEX (Domestic) (Typical Application) IMPORTANT : Before doing any cabling, check which operational mode is required for the barrier. (See Section 4.1) NOTE: 1. Guard controls operation of barrier using GUARD pushbutton inside guardhut. 220V AC INPUT INFRARED BEAM (OR LOOP)

7.2.2 ALTERNATIVE 2 - Before pouring the concrete ensure that the mounting plate is positioned correctly. - The plate is not symmetrical. The two nuts closest to the plate edge face towards the door of boom enclosure. - Tighten top and bottom nut to aid in positioning the plate when the concrete is poured.

7.5 BOOM ASSEMBLY If the boom pole has not been supplied pre-drilled, use the external clamping piece as a template, mark and drill the 10.5 mm holes in the boom pole. In order for the end cap to fit correctly, there must be a clearance, the thickness (A) of the end cap, between the end of the boom pole and the clamping...
8.0 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ( See section 13 for wiring diagram ) The instructions are broken down into two sections: - SIMPLEX type boom logic (Section 8.1) - COMPLEX type boom logic (Section 8.2) Connections are made to the mains isolator and 16 way terminal strip mounted on the chassis plate fitted to the door, (old version prior Nov.

9.0 COMMISSIONING 9.1 - Before any commissioning is done it is important to make sure that the counter balancing spring is providing a force to balance the weight of the arm. Adjust the spring tension to suit the length of of arm. This can be done by loosening the nuts on the spring tensioner and adjusting the length.

COMMISSIONING (Continued ) 9.7 - If arm is not horizontal when the crank arm is at the correct T.D.C. point then loosen cap screw as shown and adjust until the arm is correct. ROTATE THIS SHAFT TO GET ARM HORIZONTAL 9.8 - AUTO - CLOSE (SIMPLEX MODE ONLY ) Ensure that the auto - close link is fitted onto the pins provided.

12.0 MAINTENANCE The Centurion boom requires a minimum of maintenance. The following checks should be done periodically: - Ensure all terminals are tight and that no nuts and bolts are loose. - Check the chain tension, and adjust if necessary.
Access door Lockable, hinged. Surface coating as per main enclosure. CONTROLLER Type Centurion CP88. Trigger inputs Memory input for pushbutton, keyswitch, radio control, card reader, keypad and any device with potential free N/O output. Non memory input for ticket vendor or cash register.
