Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION The operator instructions shall list the maximum number of open and close entrapment protection devices capable of being connected to the operator. WARNING - to reduce the risk of severe injury or death: b) The operator is intended for installation only on gates used READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS For gate operators that utilize a contact sensor (edge sensor or similar): One or more contact sensors shall be located where Gate Construction the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at Vehicular gates should be constructed and installed in the leading edge, trailing edge, and postmounted both accordance with ASTM F2200: Standard Specification for inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.
Installing the Warning Signs This FAAC swing gate operator is supplied with two warning signs to alert people that a possible hazard exists and that appropriate actions should be taken to avoid the hazard or to reduce exposure to it.
Fig. 2 reservoir. The standard model of the 422 operator (CBAC) comes with hydraulic locks in both open and close positions. The optional SB version doesn’t have any locks. The hydraulic lock is a service device rather than a security de- vice.
Outward swinging gate, top view Fig. 4b 2.4. INSTALLATION OF THE OPERATOR Installing the model 422 operator consists of the following steps: 1. Attach the rear mounting bracket 2. Attach the operator to the rear mounting bracket 3. Attach the front mounting bracket to the operator Opening 4.

Attach the rear mounting bracket Attach the rear mounting bracket according to the dimensions Attach the front swivel joint to the operator’s rod. Push the in Figure 4a or 4b. front pin through the front mounting bracket then the piston WARNING! You must achieve the A and B dimensions as specified rod to temporarily attach them together.

Attach the operator to the gate Re-attach the operator to the mounting brackets. Once the Fig. 10 operator is mounted and level, remove the vent screw from the bottom of the valve body (Fig. 11, ref a). Use a 3mm hex wrench.
2.5. BY-PASS VALVES ADJUSTMENT Unscrew the screw that secures the knob (Fig. 15, ref ), and The 422 operator has an anti-crushing safety device which pull out the knob (Fig. 14, ref limits the operator’s force if an obstacle is encountered while Turn the pressure adjustment screws (By-Pass) (Fig.
Periodically check the correct the adjustment of the anti-crushing safety device (BY-PASS) and the efficiency of the release system to allow manual operation. The safety devices installed on the system must be checked every 6 months. Fig. 18 3/16 REPAIRS For any repairs, contact FAAC’s authorised Repair Centers.

7. Operating Logics The following table displays the sequence of functions This is a brief description of the main operating logics of the accessible in BASIC PROGRAMMING: system. For a complete description please refer to Table 3 • E (semi-automatic): This mode requires a command to BASIC PROGRAMMING press open and a command to close.

11. Final Tests 10. Learning Operating Times Once programming is complete and the proper operating WARNING: During the learning procedure, safety times are stored in the board’s memory perform a devices are disabled! Avoid crossing the leaf complete test the system. Verify that the operator(s) run properly and, most importantly, check that force is movement area when this operation is carried out.
12. Operating Modes Detailed Description (1) If maintained, it prolongs the pause until disabled by the command (timer function) (2) If a new pulse occurs within 2 seconds after reversing, it immediately stops operation. (3) During the partial opening cycle, an OPEN A pulse causes total opening. NB.: Effects on other active pulse inputs in brackets.

230 V AC Power Wiring Guidelines 115 V Check local wiring codes in all cases and follow all local building codes. Wiring and hookup should be performed by qualified electricians/installers only. AC power should be supplied from a circuit breaker panel and must have its own dedicated circuit breaker.
