a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3,5 mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before the
power supply mains.
• Check that earthing is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for closure
(doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided with an earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are needed
to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing, conveying and
shearing.
• Position at least one luminous signal indication device (blinker) where it can
be easily seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.

2) GENERAL OUTLINE
The DEIMOS BT UL actuator offers ample installation versatility thanks to its
compactness, the extremely low position of its pinion as well as the height and
depth adjustments available. The adjustable electronic torque limiter ensures
antisquash safety. The emergency manual manoeuvre can be activated very
easily by means of a knob. The end-of-run stop is controlled by electromechanical
limit microswitches. The control unit is incorporated. Before each manoeuvre,
the control unit performs a check of the operation relays and safety devices
(photocells, rubber skirt, etc.).
The gearmotor (fig.1) comprises:
The incorporated control panel checks the drive relays and safety devices (pho-
tocells and safety edge) before carrying out any manoeuvre.
M Motor.
R Reduction gear with worm screw and wheel.
F Electromechanical limit switch unit.
P Pinion.
S Release mechanism.

Control panel
The following optional accessories are available:
- SBBAT mod. Buffer battery kit
It can be incorporated into the actuator and allows the automation system to
operate even when the mains power supply is disconnected for a short time.
The pack includes (fig.1):

INSTALL THE GATE OPERATOR ONLY WHEN:
• The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage
Class of the gate,
• All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded,
• The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles.
Pedestrians must supplied with a separate access opening,
• The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied
between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce
the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas,
• The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to
the installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch
or presure relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.
FOR GATE OPENERS WITH HOLD-TO-RUN CONTROL:
• The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of
the gate area when the gate is moving,
• A sign with the message "WARNING" must be positioned near the controls.
The characters for the writing should be at least 6.4 mm high. The following
statement should also be indicated: "Moving Gate Has the Potential of Inflicting
Injury or Death - Do Not Start Gate Unless Path is Clear".
• An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similare device)
shall not be employed
• No other activation device shall be connected.
Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from
coming in contact with the gate while operating the controls. controls intended
to be used to reset an operator after 2 sequential activations of the entrapment
protection device or devices must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate.
Outdoor or easly accesible controls shall have a security feature to prevent
unauthorized use.
All warnings signs and placards must be installed where visible in the area of
the gate.
FOR GATE OPERATOR PROVIDED WITH SENSOR FOR CONTACT-FREE
DETECTION:
• See instructions on the placement of non contact sensor for each type of
application,
• Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when
a vheicle, trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.
• One or more non-contact sensor shall be located where the risk of entrapment
or obstruction exist, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or
barrier.
FOR GATE OPERATOR PROVIDED WITH CONTACT DETECTION (RUBBER
EDGE OR SIMILAR):
• On or more contact sensor shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular
vertical pivot gate.
• A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the
communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subjected
to mechanical damage.
• A wireless contact sensor such as one that transimts radio frequency (RF)
signals the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be loca-
ted where the transimission of the signals are not obscrtucted or impeded
y building structure, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless
contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use conditions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNINGS: to reduce the risk of injury or death:
• Read and follow all instructions.
• Never let children operate or play with gate control. Keep the remote control
away from children.
• Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS
THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
• All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bot-
tom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent
a 2-1/4 inch (57.2 mm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings
anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate
covers in the open position.
• All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding is supplied
for sliding gates exposed rollers.
