IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Important Safety Instructions

• WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR

DEATH:

• READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

• Never let children operate or play with the gate controls. Keep remote controls away from children.

• Always keep people and objects away from the gate.

NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING GATE.

• Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or when an object activates a non-contact sensor. If necessary, adjust the force or the limit of travel and then retest the gate operator. Failure to properly adjust and retest the gate operator can increase the risk of injury or death.

• Use the manual release mechanism only when the gate is not moving.

• KEEP GATE PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware.

• The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use a separate entrance.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Important Installation Instructions

1. Install the gate operator only when the following conditions have been met:

• The operator is appropriate for the type and usage class of the gate.

• All openings of a horizontal slide gate have been guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.25 m) above the ground to prevent a 2.25 inch (55 mm) diameter sphere from passing through openings anywhere in the gate or through that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers when in the open position.

• All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.

• Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.

2. The operator is intended for installation on gates used by vehicles only. Pedestrians must be provided with a separate access opening.

3. To reduce the risk of entrapment when opening and closing, the gate must be installed in a location that allows adequate clearance between the gate and adjacent structures. Swinging gates shall not open outward into public access areas.

4. Before installing the gate operator, ensure that the gate has been properly installed and that it swings freely in both directions. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.

5. User controls must be installed at least 6 feet (1.83 m) away from any moving part of the gate and located where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls.

Controls located outdoors or those that are easily accessible shall have security features to prevent unauthorized use.

6. The Stop and/or Reset buttons must be located within line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.

3

7. All warning signs and placards must be installed and easily seen within visible proximity of the gate. A minimum of one warning sign shall be installed on each side of the gate.

8. For gate operators that utilize a non-contact sensor (photo beam or the like):

• See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each type of application.

• Exercise care to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.

• Locate one or more non-contact sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the reachable perimeter of a moving gate or barrier.

• Use only FAAC “Photobeam” photoelectric eyes to comply with UL325.

9. For gate operators that utilize a contact sensor (edge sensor or similar):

• Locate one or more contact sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate

• Locate one or more contact sensors at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.

• Locate one or more contact sensors at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm).

• Locate one or more contact sensors at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.

• Locate hard-wired contact sensors and wiring so that communication between sensor and gate operator is not subjected to mechanical damage.

• Locate wireless contact sensors, such as those that transmit radio frequency (RF) signals, where the transmission of signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar hindrances. Wireless contact sensors shall function under their intended end-use conditions.

• Use only FAAC MSE MO, CN60 or M60 edge sensors.

400 OPERATOR

1.1 DIMENSIONS 1 DESCRIPTION AND TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The FAAC Model 400 Swing Gate Operator consists of an electric pump and a hydraulic piston which transmits drive to the gate leaf.

Models with hydraulic locking do not require the installation of electric locks, as they provide mechanical locking of the leaf when the motor is not operating.

Models without hydraulic locking require the installation of electric locks to ensure that the leaf is mechanically locked.

FAAC 400 Operators were designed and built to automate swing leaf gates. Do not use for any other purpose.

2 INSTALLATION

2.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS

To ensure a correctly operating automated system, the structure of the gate must satisfy the following requirements:

• Leaf length should not exceed “Max Leaf Length” dimensions in Table 1.

• The gate should have a strong and rigid leaf structure.

• The gate leaves should have a smooth, uniform movement during the entire length of travel without any irregular friction.

• Existing hinges should be in good condition.

• Travel limit mechanical stops must be provided.

• The condition of the structure directly influences the reliability and safety of the automated system.

• The gate must swing level

2.2 INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS

Figure 4

2.3 GENERAL RULES

If the dimensions indicated in table A or B cannot be achieved, the following must be considered in order to calculate different measurements:

• To obtain 90° opening of the leaf: a + b = c .

• To obtain over 90° opening of the leaf: a + b < c .

• Lower a and b dimensions will result in higher speeds.

• Limit the difference between a and b to within 1.5 inches.

Higher differences will considerably vary gate opening and closing speed.

• The minimum Z dimension is 2 inches (Fig. 4);

• If the pillar dimensions or the position of the hinge

(dimension d ) do not make it possible to keep dimension a at the required size, a niche must be made in the pillar as shown in Fig. 5.

• Dimension a must always be larger than dimension E .

For installations that open outward, refer to Section 6.

2.4 INSTALLING THE OPERATOR

Attention : To avoid compromising operator functionality, use measurements and dimensions indicated.

1.) Fasten the rear attachment to a pillar or column support. Follow the measurements indicated in Tables

A / B. If necessary, modify the length of the supplied attachment.

• For iron pillars, weld the rear attachment (Fig. 6,

Ref. 2) directly to the pillars.

• For masonry pillars, select one of the following solutions:

A.) Install an appropriate wall plate and then accurately weld the rear attachment.

OR

B.) Use screws and expansion plugs to secure the rear attachment plate (Fig. 6, Ref. a) to the pillar.

Then weld the rear attachment to the plate as shown in Figure 6.

2.) Secure the operator to the rear attachment with the supplied screws (Fig. 6).

3.) Screw, halfway down, the front attachment onto the rod (Fig. 8, Ref.1). Tighten with the supplied nut.

4.) Release the operator ( see Section 5 ).

5.) Fully extend the rod out to its stopping point, then push it back approximately 1/4 inch (Fig. 7).

Figure 6

Figure 8

Figure 7

12.) Grease all securing pins of the attachments.

13.) Prepare the protective housing and fit it on the operator as shown in Fig. 11. Fit the electric cable strain relief (Fig. 12, Ref. 3).

14.) Re-lock the operator and make electrical connections to the electronic control unit following the instructions in the 455D section.

Figure 9

1/4 Inch

6.) Relock the operator ( see Section 5.1

).

7.) Fit the front bracket onto the rod (Fig. 8, Ref. 2)

8.) Close the gate leaf and, while keeping the operator perfectly horizontal, identify and mark the location of the front bracket on the leaf (Fig. 9).

9.) Temporarily fasten the front bracket to the leaf with two weld spots (protect rod from welding slag).

If the gate structure does not permit the bracket to be firmly fastened, modify the structure to create a solid support base.

10.) Release the operator and manually check that the gate can freely and completely open. Ensure that it stops via the travel limit mechanical stops and that leaf movement is good and frictionless.

11.) Temporarily release the operator from the bracket and then permanently weld the bracket to the leaf.

Prevent welding slag from damaging the rod.

(Fig.10). If welding is not feasible, secure the front and rear attachment plates with screws.

15.) Connect the power cable to the operator and fasten the screws (Figure 14A).

2.5 BY-PASS VALVES ADJUSTMENT

The Model 400 has an anti-crushing safety device which limits the operator’s force when an obstacle is encountered while the gate is moving. Follow these steps to adjust the intervention threshold of the anti-crushing system:

• Lift the protective cap (Fig. 13, Ref.1) and insert the supplied key (Fig. 13, Ref. 2).

• Turn the key 90°clockwise to open the cover.

• Lift the cover (Fig. 14).

• Remove the screw (Fig. 14, Ref. 3) which secures the knob and then remove the knob (Fig. 14, Ref. 4).

• Locate the force adjustment screws (By-Pass) on the operator (Fig. 14, Ref. 5 and 6) .

• OPEN pressure screw (green wording): gate opening direction.

• CLOSE pressure screw (red wording): gate closing direction.

• To reduce torque, turn screws counter-clockwise.

• To increase torque, turn screws clockwise.

• Test the bypass adjustment by physically obstructing the gate during its travel and make corrections as appropriate

• When you have finished making adjustments, re-position the knob (Fig. 14, Ref. 4) and tighten the screw (Fig. 14, Ref. 3).

• Close the cover and lock it by turning the key counterclockwise.

WARNING: Do not overtighten the screws to compensate for a damaged gate.

8.1 OIL LEVEL CHECK

Make sure the operator is perfectly level, powered off and that the piston is fully retracted (gate in the open position).

• Unlock the manual release cover and hinge it open

• Remove the red knob after removing the screw (Figure 18)

• The remove the 3 T20 security screws that are below the red knob (Figure 18)

• Grab the manual release from both ends and gently rock it while pulling up.

• Make sure to remove the o-ring that fits between the manual release and the body of the operator

• Set the parts on a clean towel/location

• Next remove the 3 extensions grabbing them with plyers and pulling straight up (Figure 19)

• Now rotate the collar (silver in color) clockwise by hand and then lift straight up (Figure 20). It’s very important to not use tools or pry on this piece

• Now look into the body of the machine and to the left, the fluid should be up to the center of the tie rod (top for

400 standard or center for 400 EG when the piston is fully retracted)

• The fluid should be 5/16” to 3/8” from the top of the valve body as shown in Figure 21

• If the unit is low pour fluid in here until it reaches the target level. If you overfill the unit it will come out the breather hole in the rear flange.

• USE ONLY FAAC HP OIL

• Re-assembly the parts in reverse order making sure the o-rings and surfaces are clear of debri

Any pulse generator (push-button, detector, etc.) which, by closing a contact, commands opening and/or closing of both gate leaves. To install several full opening pulse generators, connect the N.O. contacts in parallel.

OPEN B - “Partial Opening” Command (N.O.) / Closing:

Any pulse generator (push-button, detector, etc.) which, by closing a contact, commands opening and/or closing of the leaf driven by motor M1. In the B and C logics, it always commands closing of both leaves. To install several partial opening pulse generators, connect the N.O. contacts in parallel. See logic chart for exact operation.

STP - STOP Contact (N.C.):

Any device (e.g. a push-button) which, by opening a contact, is able to stop gate movement. To install several STOP devices, connect the N.C. contacts in series.

NB: If STOP devices are not used, connect a jumper between the STP terminals and .

CL FSW - Closing Safety Contact (N.C.):

The closing safety input is used to protect the leaf movement area during closing. While closing, an activation of the the safety device connected to this input will reverse the movement of the gate leaves. This input is inactive during the opening cycle. To be compliant with the UL325 standard at least one monitored safety device must be connected to this input . See the next paragraph on how to connect a monitored device. If this input is active when the gate is open it will prevent the leaf closing movement.

Opening/Closing Safety Devices:

They operate during the gate opening and closing movements and are suitable to protect the opening and closing areas against the risk of impact. Typically these photocells work in combination with other monitored photocell protecting closing or opening entrapment zones. In that case they can’t be monitored so they can only protect against potential impact on vehicles.

7. Operating Logics

This is a brief description of the main operating logics of the system. For a complete description please refer to Table 3

• A (automatic): The gate opens on command and automatically closes after a pause phase. A second command while opening is ignored; a second command during the pause phase interrupts the pause time; a second command during closing reopens the gate. A maintained open command will hold the gate open.

• S (security): The security mode is like A logic except that a second command during opening immediately closes the gate. A maintained open command will not hold the gate open.

• E (semi-automatic): This mode requires a command to open and a command to close. A second command during opening stops the gate. A second command during closing reopens the gate.

• EP (semi-automatic, step by step): This mode requires a command to open and a command to close. A second command during opening or closing causes the gate to stop. A third command then reverses the previous motion of the gate.

• B (manned, pulsed): This mode is designed for guard station use and requires a three button switch (pulsed) to open, close, and stop the gate.

• C (manned and constant): This mode requires constant pressure switches. One to open and one to close.

No pressure on a switch stops the gate.

8. Programming

To program the 455D Control Board, you have to access

“ PROGRAMMING ” mode. Programming is split into two parts:

BASIC and ADVANCED .

Basic Programming:

To access BASIC PROGRAMMING, press key F :

• Press and hold F , the unit will display the name of the first function / parameter.

• When you release the key, the unit will display the parameter’s current value.

• Value can be modified with keys + and - .

• Press and hold F again, the unit will display the name of the next function / parameter.

• When you reach the last function, press F to exit the program, the display resumes monitoring input status.

• IMPORTANT: Make sure to exit programming mode otherwise the changes will not be saved.

If reversing occurs, and if the leaf does not reach its end contact point, you can activate this function to increase work time.

= Active = Disabled

Exit from programming and return to inputs status monitoring.

9. Start-up

LED Indicators:

The board has a two-digit display. When not in

“PROGRAMMING” mode, this display is used to indicate the status of inputs. The figure below shows how the LED segments are mapped to the corresponding the inputs.

The status of the LEDs while the gate is closed at rest are shown in bold.

Rotation direction and force check:

1. Program the functions of the 455 D control board according to need, as previously shown.

2. Cut power to the electronic control equipment.

3. Release the operators and manually move the gate to the mid-point of the opening angle.

4. Re-lock the operators.

5. Restore power.

6. Send an opening command on the OPEN A input and verify that the gate leaves start moving towards the open position

Note: If the first OPEN A pulse starts a closing movement, cut power and reverse the phases of the electric motor

(red and black wires) on the 455 D control board.

7. Check force setting of the motors, modify if necessary.

Note: For hydraulic operators, like the 400, force should be programmed to maximum level (50)

8. Stop leaf movement with a STOP command.

9. Release the operators, close the leaves and re-lock the operators.

Opening/closing time is established by a time learning procedure which can be accomplished in “simple” or “complete” modes. The simple mode doesn’t allow a slow down phase in the operator, while the complete mode does.

The slow down can be useful to reduce the mechanical stress on the gate, but it can create problems in high wind conditions.

10. Learning Operating Times

Make sure travel limit mechanical stops are present.

WARNING : During the learning procedure, safety devices are disabled! Avoid crossing the leaf movement area when this operation is carried out.

This is the normal status of the display with all the safety inputs clear and no activation signal present

A8

- SIMPLE LEARNING (Without Slow Down):

Check that the leaves are closed. Enter “ BASIC

PROGRAMMING, ” select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the + push-button for 1 second . The display begins flashing and the leaves begin to open.

As soon as the leaves reach the opening contact point, provide an OPEN A pulse (with the key operated push-button or with the radio control) to stop the movement. The leaves stop and the display stops flashing.

Press push-button F to exit and save the programming. The procedure is complete and the gate is ready to operate.

- COMPLETE LEARNING (With Slow Down):

Check that the leaves are closed. Enter “ BASIC

PROGRAMMING, ” select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the + push-button for more than 3 seconds .

The display begins flashing and leaf 1 begins to open. The following functions can be performed by sending OPEN A pulses (by key push-button or radio control).

A total of 8 OPEN A commands required:

1. Slow down at opening of leaf 1

2. Leaf 1 stops at opening and leaf 2 begins its opening movement

3. Slow down at opening of leaf 2

4. Leaf 2 stops at opening and immediately begins its closing movement

5. Slow down at closing of leaf 2

6. Leaf 2 stops at closing and leaf 1 begins its closing movement

7. Slow down at closing of leaf 1

8. Leaf 1 stops at closing

When the display stops flashing, press push-button F to exit and save the programming. The procedure is complete and the gate is ready to operate.

Notes:

• If you wish to eliminate deceleration in certain stages, wait for the leaf to reach its stop-limit and supply 2 consecutive Open pulses (by 1 second).

• If only one leaf is present, the entire sequence must nevertheless be completed. When the leaf has finished opening, supply 5 Open pulses until the leaf begins to close, and then resume normal operation.

11. Final Tests

Once programming is complete and the proper operating times are stored in the board’s memory perform a complete test the system. Verify that the operator(s) run properly and, most importantly, check that force is adequately adjusted and that safety devices are operating correctly.

After simple or complete learning the board will add 3 sec. to the programmed time so the operators will run against the stops.

Monitored safety test:

IMPORTANT : To make sure that the safety photocells protecting entrapment zones are monitored properly install a temporary jumper on the N.C. output of the photocell and give an OPEN A command. The gate must not move, otherwise check the wiring of the photcells and make sure that FAIl SAFE is enabled in Advanced Programming

AC Power Wiring Guidelines

1. Check local wiring codes in all cases and follow all local building codes. Wiring and hookup should be performed by qualified electricians/installers only.

2. AC power should be supplied from a circuit breaker panel and must have its own dedicated circuit breaker.
