Technologically Advanced Sensors - Assa Abloy SL500 Owner's Manual

Technologically advanced sensors

The ASSA ABLOY sensors have been tested and approved by the ASSA ABLOY test
laboratory for use on ASSA ABLOY's automatic sliding doors. These presence sensors
further improve the already high obstruction detection obtained with the built in self-
monitored reverse upon obstruction force limitation.
Monitored sensors have built-in monitoring for error detection. However, all sensors, inner
and outer as well as side presence (if fitted), shall be checked at least once a week by the
owner of the building, see below. These tests shall be documented, signed and traceable (e.g.
in the service book).
Note: If you have a problem you cannot correct, turn off the automatic door immediately and
call your ASSA ABLOY service representative for assistance.
How to check your inner and outer combined motion and presence
detection sensors
Combined sensors are used when you want both a motion sensor and a presence sensor
integrated into the same unit.
When walking towards the door opening at moderate speed, the door should start opening when
you are about 5 ft (1.5 meter) from the door. It shall slide open smoothly and stop in the fully
open position. Repeat the same procedure from the other side of the door opening. Move
slowly through the door (about 6"/s (15cm/s)). The door shall remain open.
If your door is set up for one-way traffic, the sensor on the side not intended for use shall reopen
the closing door if an object is detected at a minimum of 8" (20 cm) from the door at floor
level.
Step out of the detection field. After a short time delay the door shall slide closed smoothly.
Walk parallel to the inner door face (about 31.5" (80 cm) from the door face) to check that
your motion is detected during at least the complete door opening width. Repeat the same
procedure on the outer door face.
