Configuration et installation
Installation of the FAAC 746 system requires electrical and mechanical expertise. It is highly recommended that a qualified technician performs the installation.
- Préparation du site : Ensure the gate track is clean and clear. Verify the gate moves smoothly manually.
- Montage du moteur :
- Securely attach the base plate (FAAC 737816) to a stable concrete foundation next to the gate.
- Mount the FAAC 746 ER Z16 motor onto the base plate, ensuring it is level and aligned with the gate's rack.
- Installation du rack : Attach the gate rack to the sliding gate, ensuring proper engagement with the motor's pinion gear. Leave a small clearance (approx. 1-2mm) between the rack and the pinion.
- Connexions électriques :
- Connect the 230V main power supply to the motor's control unit, following the wiring diagram provided in the detailed installation manual (not included here).
- Wire the flashing light (FAAC 410013) and photocell sensors (FAAC 785165) to the control unit. Ensure photocells are installed at appropriate heights and aligned correctly across the gate opening.
- Connect the key switch (XK10 B) and install the receiver (FAAC 787824) for remote control functionality.
- Limit Switches Adjustment: Adjust the motor's limit switches to define the gate's fully open and fully closed positions.
- Test initial : After all connections are made and verified, power on the system and perform initial tests to ensure all components function correctly and safety features are active.
Mode d'emploi
The FAAC 746 system offers several methods for operating your sliding gate:
- Télécommande: Press the designated button on the XT2 433 SLH transmitter (FAAC 787003) to open or close the gate. A single press typically initiates movement, and another press can stop or reverse the gate depending on the programming.
- Interrupteur à clé: Insert the key into the XK10 B key switch and turn it to activate the gate. This is useful for manual override or for visitors.
- Libération manuelle : In case of power failure or system malfunction, the gate can be manually operated. Locate the manual release mechanism on the motor (refer to the motor's specific manual for details), unlock it, and slide the gate by hand. Remember to re-engage the mechanism after manual operation.
The flashing light (FAAC 410013) will activate during gate movement to warn pedestrians and vehicles.
Entretien
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your FAAC 746 system. Perform these checks periodically:
- Mensuel:
- Inspect the gate's movement: Ensure it slides smoothly without excessive friction or noise.
- Check photocells: Verify they are clean and unobstructed. Test their functionality by breaking the beam while the gate is closing. The gate should stop or reverse.
- Examine the rack and pinion: Look for wear, damage, or debris. Clean if necessary.
- Tous les six mois:
- Vérifiez toutes les connexions électriques pour l'étanchéité et la corrosion.
- Lubricate moving parts of the gate (rollers, bearings) as recommended by the gate manufacturer.
- Inspect the motor housing for any signs of water ingress or damage.
- Service professionnel annuel : It is recommended to have a qualified technician perform a comprehensive inspection and service annually.
