INSTALLATION MANUAL
ENGLISH
1) GENERAL INFORMATION
The SP3500 operator consists of a strong gearmotor.
The self-braking motor and irreversible gearbox allow the gate to stop quickly,
avoiding uncontrolled sliding of the gate due to the eect of inertia.
The gearmotor is coupled to the gate by means of a rack. The control panel is
built in and comprises: start relay, three-phase motor protector, control unit.
The operating logic provides for various congurations so that use of the automa-
ted device can be tailored to the user’s needs (e.g.: automatic closing, controlled
closing, photocells active during closing etc.). To edit settings, call in qualied
personnel (installer).
The irreversible gearmotor keeps the gate locked closed, meaning there is no
need to use solenoid locks.
A manual release system allows the gate to be opened manually in the event of
a mains power outage or malfunctioning.
In deadman mode, check the gate stopping distance: if it exceeds 50mm, cover
the closing edge with a rubber prole whose deformation is greater than the
stopping distance and results in less than 150N of static force being generated
on a test body measuring 80mm in diameter.

WIRING
WARNING! For connection to the mains power supply, use: a multicore cable with
a cross-sectional area of at least 5x1.5mm
2
or 4x1.5mm
2
when dealing with three-
phase power supplies or 3x1.5mm
2
for single-phase supplies (by way of example,
type H05 VV-F cable can be used with a cross-sectional area of 4x1.5mm
2
). To con-
nect auxiliary equipment, use wires with a cross-sectional area of at least 0.5 mm
2
.
- Only use pushbuttons with a capacity of 10A-250V or more.
- Wires must be secured with additional fastening near the terminals (for example,
using cable clamps) in order to keep live parts well separated from safety extra
low voltage parts.
- During installation, the power cable must be stripped to allow the earth wire
to be connected to the relevant terminal, while leaving the live wires as short
as possible. The earth wire must be the last to be pulled taut in the event the
cable’s fastening device comes loose.
WARNING! safety extra low voltage wires must be kept physically separate from
low voltage wires.
Only qualied personnel (professional installer) should be allowed to access
live parts.
CHECKING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM AND MAINTENANCE
Before the automated system is nally put into operation, and during maintenance
work, perform the following checks meticulously:
- Make sure all components are fastened securely.
- Check starting and stopping operations in the case of manual control.
- Check the logic for normal or personalized operation.
- For sliding gates only: check that the rack and pinion mesh correctly with 2 mm
of play along the full length of the rack; keep the track the gate slides on clean
and free of debris at all times.
- For sliding gates and doors only: make sure the gate’s running track is straight
and horizontal and that the wheels are strong enough to take the weight of the
gate.
- For cantilever sliding gates only: make sure there is no dipping or swinging
during operation.
- For swing gates only: make sure the leaves’ axis of rotation is perfectly vertical.
-For barriers only: before opening the door, the spring must be decompressed
(vertical boom).
- Check that all safety devices (photocells, safety edges, etc.) are working properly
and that the anti-crush safety device is set correctly, making sure that the force
of impact measured at the points provided for by standard EN 12445 is lower
than the value laid down by standard EN 12453.
- Impact forces can be reduced by using deformable edges.
- Make sure that the emergency operation works, where this feature is provided.
- Check opening and closing operations with the control devices applied.
- Check that electrical connections and cabling are intact, making extra sure that
insulating sheaths and cable glands are undamaged.
- While performing maintenance, clean the photocells’ optics.
- When the automated system is out of service for any length of time, activate the
emergency release (see “EMERGENCY OPERATION” section) so that the operated
part is made idle, thus allowing the gate to be opened and closed manually.
-
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or their
technical assistance department or other such qualied person to avoid any risk .
- If “D” type devices are installed (as dened by EN12453), connect in unveried
mode, foresee mandatory maintenance at least every six months
- The maintenance described above must be repeated at least once yearly or at
shorter intervals where site or installation conditions make this necessary.
