1. INTRODUCTION TO THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL

This manual provides the correct procedures and requirements for installing 746 E R and maintaining it in a safe condition.

When drafting the manual, the results of the risk assessment conducted by FAAC S.p.A. on the entire product life cycle have been taken into account in order to implement effective risk reduction measures.

The following stages of the life cycle of the product have been considered:

Delivery/handling

Assembly and installation

Set-up and commissioning

Operation

Maintenance/troubleshooting

Disposal at the end of the product’s life cycle

Risks arising from installation and using the product have been taken into consideration; these include:

Risks for the installation/maintenance technician (technical personnel)

Risks for the user of the automation system

Risks to product integrity (damage)

In Europe, the automation of a gate falls under the Machinery Directive

2006/42/EC and the corresponding harmonised standards. Anyone automating a gate (new or existing) is classified as the Manufacturer of the Machine. They are therefore required by law, among other things, to carry out a risk analysis of the machine (automatic gate in its entirety) and take protective measures to fulfil the essential safety requirements specified in Annex I of the Machinery Directive.

FAAC S.p.A. recommends that you always comply with the EN 12453 standard and in particular that you adopt the safety criteria and devices indicated, without exception, including the dead-man function.

This manual also contains general information and guidelines, which are purely illustrative and not exhaustive, in order to facilitate the activities carried out by the Manufacturer of the Machine in all respects with regard to carrying out the risk analysis and drafting the instructions for use and maintenance of the machine. It should be clearly understood that FAAC S.p.A. accepts no liability for the reliability and/ or completeness of the above instructions. As such, the manufacturer of the machine must carry out all the activities required by the Machinery Directive and the corresponding harmonised standards on the basis of the actual condition of the locations and structures where the product 746 E R will be installed, prior to commissioning the machine.

These activities include the analysis of all the risks associated with the machine and subsequent implementation of all safety measures intended to fulfil the essential safety requirements.

This manual contains references to European standards. The automation of a gate must fully comply with any laws, standards and regulations applicable in the country where installation will take place.

 

Unless otherwise specified, the measurements provided in the instructions are in mm.

4.1 MECHANICAL REQUIREMENTS

If the area of installation gives rise to the risk of impact by vehicles, provide an appropriate protective structure to protect the gearmotor.

The mechanical structural components must comply with the requirements of EN 12604. Before installing the automation, the suitability of the mechanical requirements must be established and any work that is necessary in order to meet them carried out.

The essential mechanical requirements are as follows: !

Solid ground to support the weight of the gate, the structures present and the gearmotor. Flat, horizontal paving in the area of movement of the leaf. There must be no chance of water accumulating in the installation area.

The structure (columns, guides, mechanical stops, leaf and counterweights) must be solid and there must be no risk of detachment or collapse (considering the weight of the leaf and the forces applied by the gearmotor and wind action). Perform structural calculations where necessary.

The structure must show no signs of corrosion or cracking.

The leaf must remain vertical throughout the entire length of travel, with a regular, smooth and uniform movement. The path along which the leaf slides must be perfectly horizontal (the leaf must not have a tendency to open or close spontaneously when it is released).

Appropriate devices must be installed to prevent the leaf from falling.

There should be a solid surface on the leaf sufficiently large to attach the rack to.

The sliding guides must be in good condition; they must be straight and not deformed, they must be fastened securely and there must be no obstacles along their entire length. The diameter of the guide wheels must be appropriate for the weight and length of the leaf and their profile section must coincide with that of the sliding guide. The number and position of the wheels must ensure an adequate and constant distribution of the weight.

A solid guide system for the suspended leaf in the case of a cantilever gate.

Presence of upper containing guide to prevent vertical oscillation of the leaf. The leaf must not under any circumstances come out from its guides and fall. Wheels, rollers and bearings in good condition, lubricated and free from play or friction.

Presence of external mechanical limit stops to limit the travel of the leaf when opening and closing. The stops must be suitably sized and solidly fastened so that they resist any impact of the leaf in the event of improper use (leaf pushed and left to slide freely). The mechanical limit stops must be positioned at 50 mm beyond the stop position of the leaf, and must ensure that the leaf remains inside its sliding guides.

The thresholds and protrusions of the paving must be appropriately shaped in order to prevent the risk of sliding or slipping.

For the creation of detection loops, refer to the specific instructions.

Presence of a safety area between the wall (or other fixed element) and the furthest protruding part of the open leaf, to protect against the risk of persons becoming trapped/crushed. Alternatively, check that the opening force required falls within the maximum permissible limits according to applicable standards and legislation.

Presence of safety areas between the fixed and moving parts, to protect against the risk of hands being trapped. Alternatively, apply protective elements that prevent fingers from being introduced.

Presence of a safety area between the paving and lower edge of the leaf, along its entire path, providing protection from the risk of feet becoming caught in and crushed beneath the wheels. Alternatively, apply protective elements preventing the introduction of feet.

No sharp edges or protruding parts should be present to ensure there are no cutting, hooking or perforation hazards. Alternatively, eliminate or protect any sharp edges and protruding parts.

No slots or openings should be present on the sliding leaf or the fencing to prevent the creation of a shearing hazard. Alternatively, apply protective mesh to any such openings. The mesh should be sufficiently fine to prevent introduction of body parts requiring protection, in relation to the distance between the fixed and moving parts.

For the minimum dimensions to prevent crushing/shearing of body parts, refer to EN 349. For the safety distances required to prevent danger zones being reached, refer to ISO 13857.

4.2 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Always shut off the power supply before performing any work. If the disconnect switch is not in view, apply a warning sign stating “WARNING -

Maintenance in Progress”.

The electrical system must comply with applicable legislation in the country of installation.

Use components and materials with CE marking which are compliant with the

Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.

The power supply line for the automation must be fitted with a multi-pole circuit breaker, with a suitable tripping threshold, a contact opening distance of at least 3 mm and a breaking capacity that complies with current regulations.

The power supply for the automation must be fitted with a 30 mA differential switch.

The metal parts of the structure must be earthed.

Check that the protective earthing system complies with applicable regulations in the country of installation.

The electrical cables of the automation system must be of a size and insulation class that is compliant with current legislation and laid in appropriate rigid or flexible conduits, either above or below ground.

Use separate conduits for the power supply and the 12-24 V control devices

/ accessories cables.

Check buried cable plans to ensure that there are no other electrical cables in proximity to the planned digging/drilling locations to prevent the risk of electrocution.

Check that there are no pipes in the vicinity as well.

The conduit fittings and the cable glands must prevent the entry of moisture, insects and small animals.

Protect extension connections using junction boxes with an IP 67 protection rating or higher.

It is recommended to install a flashing light in a visible position to indicate when it is moving.

For the creation of detection loops, refer to the relative instructions.

The control accessories must be positioned in areas that are always accessible and not dangerous for the user. It is recommended to position the control accessories within the field of view of the automation. This is mandatory in the case of hold-to-run controls.

If an emergency stop button has been installed, it must be EN13850 compliant.

Comply with the following heights from the ground:

- control accessories = minimum 150 cm

- emergency buttons = maximum 120 cm

If the manual controls are intended to be used by disabled or infirm persons, highlight them with suitable pictograms and make sure that these users are able to access them.

RISKS

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

Install the board cover before switching on the power supply.

During operation there is a risk of fingers and hands being trapped between the rack, pinion and cover.

Under certain conditions, as a result of prolonged continuous operation, the body of the gearmotor can reach high temperatures. Avoid touching it.

SET-UP PROCEDURE

Carry out the steps, referring to the relative paragraphs and § 10 for the accessories.

1. With the gearmotor released, move the leaf manually to the halfway position.

2. Turn the power supply on and check the status of the LEDs (§ Diagnostics).

3. Install the limit switches on the rack .

4. Set the opening direction : function d I in basic programming.

 

The opening direction is established by looking at the 746 E R from the release device side.

5. Program the pre-limit switch decelerations : function r P

in advanced programming.

The pre-limit switch deceleration reduces the inertia of the gate, allowing the impact forces to fall within the limits indicated in the standard.

 

The deceleration is carried out only after a complete cycle has taken place from one limit switch to the other.

Each time the power is turned on/restored, the cycles carried out before the complete movement take place at normal or slow speed according to parameter

S r

in advanced programming.

6. Adjust the stop positions :

Adjust the position of the limit switches on the rack

Set the post-limit switch deceleration and the braking so that the gate stops in the correct positions: functions r A

and b r

in advanced programming. The leaf must stop a few centimetres before reaching the mechanical stop.

The post-limit switch deceleration is carried out as soon as a limit switch on the gate engages the sensor (the corresponding LED on the board turns off). Braking takes place after the deceleration.

Set the values so that a stop position is obtained in which the sensor is not released by the limit switch. Excessive braking causes the leaf to move backwards after it has stopped.

7. Set the time-out : function t

in advanced programming.

The time-out prevents the motor from overheating if the limit switch fails to engage: set a time of approximately 10 s longer than the travel time measured between one limit switch and the other.

8. Adjust the anti-crushing system (§ 8.4) .

9. Complete the basic / advanced programming , according to the required operating characteristics.

10. Memorise the radio controls , if used, following the specific instructions.

11. Make sure that the automation is working properly with all the devices installed.

12. Install the cover .

746 E R 30 732099 - Rev.D

The anti-crushing system is realised by a combination of the limitation of static force exerted by the operator in the event of impact and the reverse movement following the detection of the obstacle.

We suggest:

start by setting the electronic force to the maximum (function

F O

in Basic Programming)

limit the static force to a value lower than 150 N

set the sensitivity of the obstacle detection system so that obstacles are not detected by mistake

make sure that the anti-crushing system has been adjusted correctly by using an impact force tester in accordance with standard EN 12453

Refine the adjustments if necessary. Reduce the electronic force, if necessary: function

F 0

in basic programming.

LIMITING THE STATIC FORCE

The static force is limited by adjusting the mechanical clutch.

The clutch must be adjusted with the power supply disconnected.

The 746 E R is supplied with the clutch adjusted for maximum thrust force.

1. Turn off the power supply and remove the protective cover from the board.

2. Hold the drive shaft in position using a spanner and adjust the screw of the clutch using a screwdriver (

45

 (+) turn clockwise to increase the force



( –) turn anti-clockwise to decrease the force

3. Put back the protective cover on the board and turn the power back on.

OBSTACLE DETECTION

The electronic board determines the position of the leaf and the speed of movement via the encoder and detects the presence of an obstacle in the event of impact.

If an obstacle is detected during opening or closing, the gate reverses for 1 s and then the automation stops.

Adjust the sensitivity of the detection system (if it is too sensitive, it can lead to obstacles to be detected by mistake): function

E C

in advanced programming.

Do not disable the obstacle detection system.

CHECKS

Make sure it has been adjusted correctly by using an impact force tester in accordance with standard EN 12453.

If the impact force limits indicated in the standard have been met using the pre-limit switch deceleration, slow movement has to be enabled every time power is turned on / restored: function

S r

in advanced programming.

With

S r

, every time power is turned on / restored, the leaf moves at a slow speed until it has travelled completely between one limit switch and the other.

For non-EU countries, if there are no specific local regulations, the static force must be less than 150 N.
