How the SW200i works

The swing door operator SW200i uses a DC motor which is connected to the output shaft by
a combination of a bevel gear and spur gears. The arm system that is connected to the output
shaft opens the door in a wall mounted application.
There is also an adjustable spring mechanism connected to the output shaft. During opening
of the door, the clock spring is tensioned by the rotation of the output shaft. During the closing
cycle, the accumulated spring force is acting in the closing direction. The spring force can be
adjusted so there is appropriate force to close the door when it is operated manually or in case
of a power failure.
To activate the operator you can use a manual activator (elbow switch) or an automatic activator
(radar device). It is also possible – where local standards allow – to activate the operator by
just pushing the door, if Push & Go is selected.
After the door has been activated it will open and stay open for a specified Hold Open Time
(HOT). When the HOT has elapsed the door will close.
The SW200i can be set in three or four different modes, depending on programme selector
type, see table below.
In fully manual use (or in case of a power failure) the SW200i acts as a normal door closer.
Position Function
OFF The door is closed. The door cannot be opened with inner and outer activation
units. The door is locked if an electromechanical locking device has been
fitted. The door can be opened with a key switch (if fitted).
EXIT Passage from inside only. The door is normally locked if an electromechan-
ical locking device has been fitted. The door can only be opened with the
inner activation unit and with a key switch (if fitted).
AUTO The door can be opened with the inner and outer manual and/or automatic
Normal activators. The electric strike, if fitted, is open.
position
OPEN The door is held permanently open by the motor.
