C - INSTALLATION
Safety edge 2 of post 1 is necessary if the post and the low wall (or fence) are not aligned (like in the
diagram) thereby creating a crush zone between the edge of the post and a gate bar. The safety edges
used must have sufficient deformation between the trigger and the position where the gate stops
(around 6 cm) (residual travel according to the EN 12978 standard).
Note: A safety edge is an emergency stop part with normally closed contact output. It must be
connected to the STOP input of the electronic card.
2.5. Confinement area
To avoid any risk of confinement in the gate clearance zone, it is recommended that you observe the
safety distances given in the diagram below.
post
• If distance T is below 100 mm, distance P must be above 200 mm
• If distance T is below 100 mm, distance P must be above 500 mm
2.6. Preventing other hazards
The body of a switch without a lock must be located in direct view of the driven part but away from
moving parts. Unless it operates with a key, it must be installed at a minimum height of 1.5 m and must
not be accessible to the public.
After installation, ensure that the components of the gate do not hang over a footpath or public access
road.
3. INSTALLATION
Installation must be done by qualified staff and observe all the indications given in this manual, in
particular "analysing hazards" and "eliminating hazards".
Before starting installation, ensure that:
• The desired use has been correctly defined.
• The gate complies with the specifications given in the Chapter "Specifications of the gate to motorise".
• T he risks have been reduced following the recommendations of the "Analysing hazards" and
"Eliminating hazards" chapter.
