    FOREWORD Thank you for choosing Dura Access Control Equipment (DACE). We welcome you to the ever growing community of happy DACE product owners. The advanced engineering and high-quality construc on of each DACE product we build is something of which we are proud. The Ul ma gate operator is packed with features to bring you more convenience and to enhance your security.
  • Page 4: Specifica Ons

    INTRODUCTION & RECOMMENDATIONS DACE is a proven leader in the manufacturing of automa c gate & garage operators and strives to manufacture high quality products using the latest technology. We are constantly working on upgrading our products to bring you, our clients, products of the finest quality. We strongly recommended using the services of an experienced gate installer to install your gate opera- tor but if you intend installing the operator yourself, the manual must be read carefully before any installa on begins.

    CABLE RECOMMENDATIONS Two op ons for power supply: 1. Op on 1 (Recommended): Low voltage supply 14-24V AC via transformer placed in the house, max 50m from operator with 3 core 1.5mm (Live, Neutral & Earth). 2. Op on 2: High voltage mains supply connected to a 220V/240V AC Double Pole Isolator switch, mounted within 1.5m of the operator connected to the transformer inside the operator.
