KS4 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (SENTIR EDGE GF & F SERIES
(
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY CONTACT EDGES MAY ONLY BE MANUFACTURED AND INSTALLED BY AUTHORISED PERSONS)
1. Cuing the safety contact edge
Cut the safety edge material 24mm shorter
than the required finished length of the
contact edge.
!WARNING! USE ONLY THE APPROVED
LOWE 3306/3316 CUTTING TOOLS.
2a. Preparing end caps (drainage holes)
If the edge is to be mounted horizontally,
remove the drain plugs from both ends. If the
edge is mounted vertically, just remove the
plugs from the end closest to the ground.
)
For the TTLL & TTLa profiles, remove a notch
from the end cap to allow the sealing flaps to
2b. Preparing end caps (sealing lip)
protrude through the end cap.
Choose the desired cable exit of the endcap,
2c. Connection cable
then cut out the appropriate mark using a
small cuing tool.
5. Place end caps
Push the endcaps neatly over each end of the
safety contact edge to secure the build.
Push in the lock cap including the aached
3. Insert the lock cap
plug into the hollow spaces surrounding the
switching chamber and push it tight to the cut
surface of the safety contact edge.
6. Insert fixation clips
Fasten the endcaps, by pushing the fixation
clip into the given space until it clicks into
place. For bigger contact edges an additional
fixation clip is used to fasten the caps.
Insert the aatched plug into the electrical
4. Insert the contact plug
switching chamber of the safety contact edge,
be sure that the plug is pressed in tightly until the
upper notch of the plug fits closely to the lock cap.
7. Electrical testing of contact-safety-edge
Measure the contact edge with a multimeter. In
rest position, the resistance value has to be 8.2
kΩ ± 500 Ω (7.7 - 8.7 kΩ). When edge is activated,
the resistance should not exceed 500 tΩ.

SENTIR edge FITTING GUIDE
1. Mount the alu carrier and drill holes at
points spaced 300-500mm apart minimum.
3. Drill an additional 8mm hole in the desired location to draw any cables through
the alu carrier and frame of gate/door.
2. Use pan headed or counter sunk screws where possible to prevent
snagging of the rubber edge profile on exposed screw heads.
4. Use a soapy water spray solution to coat the rubber foot of the safety
edge profile and the alu carrier before aempting to install the safety
edge.
5. Fit the safety edge to the carrier as
illustrated (edges with T foot slide in)
(edges with a C foot clip in from above)
(edges with a Clip foot, clip over from
either side of the safety edge).
6. !WARNING! do not aempt to
pull T foot or C foot edges in to the alu
carrier using the aached cables, this
can damage the edges assembly and
will invalidate any warranty
8. When joining cables between safety edges or junction boxes, be sure to
use weather proof connectors such as gel crimps or properly soldered and
heatshrinked connectors rated at IP 65 or above !WARNING! Failure to join
cables properly will invalidate any warranty of the safety edge.
7. Finally ensure that water drains from the end caps have been
removed as illustrated (for vertical installations remove only the lower
water drain (for horizontal installations remove water drains from both
ends of the safety edge) !WARNING! failure to remove water drains
from the safety edge will invalidate any warranty.
STORAGE AND HANDLING METHODS
Stacking box 1150mm x 1150mm
with lid
MAXIMUM STACK: no more
than 10 boxes to a stack.
ASO edge material for self-assembly MUST be stored in a cool, dry
environment away from sources of water or heavy contaminants.
Before aempting to assemble contact edges the material should
be checked thoroughly for moisture or contaminants and cleaned
and dried appropriately.
DO NOT tightly coil or place heavy objects on top of the safety edge
materials, this can cause damage to the profile and will invalidate
any warranty.
