4. Подешавање и инсталација

This section outlines the general steps for installing the BFT Phobos BT A40 system. Professional installation is highly recommended.

4.1 Инсталација актуатора

Install the two BFT PHOBOS BT A40 electromechanical actuators on each gate leaf. Ensure the mounting brackets are securely fastened to both the gate post and the gate leaf. The maximum distance between the edge of the post and the hinge axis should be up to 8 cm.

The magnetic limit switch system ensures maximum operating precision and very easy and quick adjustment. The integrated adjustable limit switch means there is no need to use bumpers screwed to the ground.

4.2 Control Panel Installation

Mount the BFT THALIA LIGHT control panel in its hermetic housing in a protected location, typically near the gate. Connect the actuators, power supply, and all safety devices to the control panel according to the wiring diagram provided in the full installation manual (not included in this summary).

4.3 Photocell Installation

Install the BFT Compacta A20-180 pivoting photocells on opposite sides of the gate opening, ensuring they are aligned. These photocells provide a safety barrier, preventing the gate from closing if an obstruction is detected.

4.4 Flashing Lamp Инсталација

Mount the BFT Radius LED BT A R1 flashing lamp in a visible location. This lamp provides a visual warning when the gate is in motion.

5. Упутство за употребу

The BFT Phobos BT A40 system is designed for automatic operation of double swing gates.

5.1 Рад на даљинском управљачу

Use the BFT MITTO B4 4-channel remote controls to operate the gate. Each button can be programmed for different functions (e.g., open/close both leaves, open/close single leaf, pedestrian access). Refer to the control panel manual for remote control programming instructions.

5.2 Аутоматски рад

Once activated, the gate will open or close automatically. The D-TRACK technology ensures complete application safety by optimally selecting the necessary forces at each point of the automation's operation. The system will detect obstructions via the photocells and reverse or stop to prevent damage or injury.

5.3 Emergency Manual Release

In the event of a power failure, use the provided emergency keys to manually unlock and open the gate. Insert the key into the actuator's release mechanism and turn it as indicated in the actuator's specific manual.

6. Одржавање

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your BFT gate operator.

  • месечно: Check the gate's movement for any unusual noises or resistance. Ensure the photocells are clean and unobstructed. Test the safety features.
  • Квартално: Inspect all mounting points and fasteners for tightness. Check the condition of the actuator's screw nut; the modernized design (deeper screw nut) reduces the possibility of accidental contamination of the mechanism, but regular inspection is still advised.
  • Годишње: Have the system inspected by a qualified technician.
  • Keep the area around the gate clear of debris and vegetation.
