GATE ARM:

 
The arm will consist of aluminium rectangular tubes 50 mm x 100 mm x 4.8 mm thick with aluminium round tubes 25 mm diameter x 3.8 mm thick of wall, vertically welded at 150 mm centre to centre at the top and at the bottom. The vertical and horizontal posts in the middle of the arm are square tubes 50 mm x 50 mm x 4.8 mm thick. The arm is available up to 4876 mm long. The height of the arm is 1524 mm at both ends and the dimensions at the centre vary depending on the model.

An aluminium flat bar 19 mm x 4.8 mm is welded onto the vertical tubes of the arm for the arch finishing, depending on the chosen model.

COUNTERBALANCING:

 
The counterbalancing 2458 mm (or proportional to the length of the gate) long will consist of aluminium rectangular tubes 50 mm x 100 mm x 4.8 mm locked by 50 mm x 50 mm aluminium square tubes in a cross pattern, solidly welded.

 
FINISH:

 
The aluminium is mill finish or painted white, brown, black or green.

 
SUPPORTING POSTS:

 
The hot dipped galvanized steel supporting posts will be 100 mm in diameter x 4.8 mm thick driven into the 25 mPa cement pillars at a minimum depth of 1524 mm. The supporting posts will also be cross-barred together with hot dipped galvanized steel tubes 50 mm in diameter x 4.8 mm thick. The distance of the supporting posts is proportional to each length of the gate.

 
GUIDING MECHANISM:

 
The aluminium guiding rail, designation 6063-T-52 with a yield strength of 24,000 psi, will be bolted to the centre or top of the aluminium rectangular tube of the gate at every 410 mm. Inside the guiding rail will be the 2 trolleys of 4 heavy duty sealed bearings for sliding and 2 wheels to guide the gate in its axis. These trolleys will be provided with an auto-adjustable axis with bearing that will be bolted on the supporting posts. Two aluminium angles will be welded underneath the gate inside which will slide the 100 mm x 32 mm guiding wheels.

 
OPENING/CLOSING MECHANISM:

 
The gate operates with a hot dipped galvanized steel rack-and-pinion or a roller chain attached to the centre rectangular tube or in the top of the gate arm linked by a sprocket to the electric operator mechanism.

THE RACK-AND-PINION MECHANISM IS FAR MUCH A BETTER SYSTEM THAN THE ROLLER CHAIN.

 
DSJH CONTROL CABINET:

 
This unit is universal i.e. it can be installed either on the left or on the right. This unit is provided with a 40:1 ratio gear reducer. The motor is protected against overcurrent by an overload relay that can be reset automatically.

This unit is equipped with an adjustable automatic friction clutch that protects the gate and the operator in case of an obstruction.

The rotary type limit switches are easily adjustable in both directions. The motor can be removed easily without disturbing the limit switches adjustment.

The 1 HP motor is available in 208, 460 or 600 volts, three phase.

The electric operator is equipped with a self adjusting solenoid drum brake with a 360° friction surface area.

The manual disconnect permits the gate to be independent for a manual operation and an electric interlock will cut the power to the control circuit during the operation. It will not be necessary to remove the driving chain and the limit switches will not go out of adjustment. The reversing contactor is a heavy duty industrial type, Allan-Bradley or equivalent, with mechanical interlock.

The base and the cover of the operator is in steel with ball bearings tension sprockets mounted on a steel shaft of 25 mm in diameter. The cover and the intermediate plate can be removed easily for maintenance. A thermostatically controlled heater is provided inside the cabinet.

This operator can operate with a #50 roller chain or with a rack-and-pinion mechanism installed on the gate arm to give much higher efficiency and durability outputs.

The cabinet is spray painted in blue.

 
HEAVY DUTY CONTROL CABINET:

 
The control cabinet will be EEMAC type 4 inside which will be mounted the 1 HP electric operator in 208, 460 or 600 volts, three phase; the relays; the contactors; the DC2000 dedicated logic controller; 20% more terminals to hook-up any other accessories or electric equipments. This unit is provided with a 40:1 ratio gear reducer. The motor is protected against overcurrent by an overload relay that can be reset automatically.

The cabinet will also be provided with a thermostatically controlled heater; one 110 volts plug-in; one 25 watts service light with a switch; one breaker to cut the power and one disconnect lever arm to operate the gate manually in case of a power failure.

This unit will be equipped with an adjustable automatic friction clutch that protects the gate and the operator in case of an obstruction.

The rotary type limit switches are easily adjustable in both directions. The motor can be removed easily without disturbing the limit switches adjustment.

The base and the cover of the operator is in steel with ball bearings tension sprockets mounted on a steel shaft of 25 mm in diameter. The cover and the intermediate plate can be removed easily for maintenance. The cover of the cabinet will be lockable.

The cabinet is spray painted in blue.

SAFETY DEVICES:

 
On the vertical face of the gate arm, closing side, is installed an AGDS safety edge working with a receiver/transmitter. When touched, the safety edge stops the gate and reverses it to its open position.

 
SHELTER:

 
For an easy working condition, a shelter is available so that the gate arm slides inside a tunnel the whole length of the total opening, consisting of all-metal sheetings for the sides and a roof. This shelter prevents from shovelling during the Winter seasons. The shelter is made different ways with different materials.

 
OTHERS:

 
maximum weight of the gate: 680 kg
maximum width of the gate: 7314 mm.

 
Manufacturing specifications may change without prior notice.
