22. ning arrangment also allows the power transformer to be away from the gate and Low Voltage Power Cable only run to the gate This is because any current that is too high for the low voltage cable is taken up by the battery Solar Powered Run from the Battery during normal use which is charged from a solar panel They need at least a 100Ah battery to run for up to 300 operations per day for 10 days straight with no charge The solar panel needs to be large enough to recharge the battery in full sun in three days or longer if cloudy A 24V 80Watt solar panel will do this This also requires a larger charge regulator a 24V 6A or larger is required ENVIRONMENT SUITABLE FOR OPERATOR The CSD series is suitable for outdoor use so long as it is NOT exposed for long periods to saltly air or other corrosive substance or contaminents that may cause fouling of the gate gate operator any of the gate operators components or accessores that may be connected to the operator 2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONSIDERING THE GENERAL PUBLIC When Installing an Automatic Gate that will be entered from a public road way make sure the Gate is placed far enough from the road to prevent traffic congestion The Gate must be installed in a location that provides adequate clearance between it and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce risk of entrapment Swing gates must not open into public access areas Install the Gate Operator on the i
23. nside of the property and fence line DO NOT install an opener on the outside of the gate where the public has access to it The Gate and Gate Operator must comply with any applicable local council regulations CONSIDERING THE USERS Industrial Gate Operators must use Point to Point Safety Photocells to help prevent the gate closing on any vehicle using the gate It is also recommended that a seperate small side gate is used for pedestrians particularly if there will be children disabled or elderly people using the gate If push buttons key switches or Digital Keypads are installed they should be within sight of the gate but not placed so the user will be tempted to reach through the gate to activate the gate operator USER AWARENESS It is important to make sure everyone that will be using the gate is aware of the following dangers associated with automatic Gates do not contact any part of the gate or walk in the path of the gate while it is moving Never let children play with the gate controls Do not attempt to beat the gate while it is closing This is extremely dangerous In the event you sell the property make sure the new owners have a copy of these instructions If you lose the instructions they can be downloaded from www grantsautomation com au TOOLS AND HARDWARE REQUIRED THE TOOLS YOU LL NEED INCLUDE A basic set of hand tools will be needed including side cutters pliers wire strippers a range of philli
