Installation - tau DC20 Installation Manual

WARNINGS
This manual has been especially written for use by qualified installers. No information given in this
manual can be considered as being of interest to end users. This manual is enclosed with control
unit DC20 and may therefore not be used for different products!
Important information:
Disconnect the panel from the power supply before opening it.
The DC20 control unit has been designed to control an electromechanical gear motor for automat-
ing gates and doors of all kinds.
Any other use is considered improper and is consequently forbidden by current laws.
Please note that the automation system you are going to install is classified as "machine construc-
tion" and therefore is included in the application of European directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Di-
rective). This directive includes the following prescriptions:
- Only trained and qualified personnel should install the equipment;
- the installer must first make a "risk analysis" of the machine;
- the equipment must be installed in a correct and workmanlike manner in compliance with all the
standards concerned;
- after installation, the machine owner must be given the "declaration of conformity".
This product may only be installed and serviced by qualified personnel in compliance with current,
laws, regulations and directives.
When designing its products, TAU observes all applicable standards (please see the attached decla-
ration of conformity) but it is of paramount importance that installers strictly observe the same
stand- ards when installing the system.
Unqualified personnel or those who are unaware of the standards applicable to the "automatic
gates and doors" category may not install systems under any circumstances.
Whoever ignores such standards shall be held responsible for any damage caused by the sys-
tem!
Do not install the unit before you have read all the instructions.

INSTALLATION

Before proceeding, make sure the mechanical components work correctly. Also check that
the gear motor assembly has been installed according to the instructions. Then make sure
that the power consumption of the gear motor is not greater than 3A (otherwise the control
panel may not work properly).
THE EQUIPMENT MUST BE INSTALLED "EXPERTLY" BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL AS REQUIRED BY LAW.
Note: it is compulsory to earth the system and to observe the safety regulations that are in
force in each country.
IF THESE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED IT COULD PREJUDICE THE PROPER WORK-
ING ORDER OF THE EQUIPMENT AND CREATE HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS FOR PEO- PLE. FOR THIS
REASON THE "MANUFACTURER" DECLINES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY MALFUNCTIONING AND
DAMAGES THUS RESULTING.
