(DIRECTIVE 98/37/EC)

Manufacturer: FAAC S.p.A.

Address: Via Benini, 1 - 40069 Zola Predosa BOLOGNA - ITALY

Declares that: 400 mod. operator,

is built to be integrated into a machine or to be assembled with other machinery to create a machine under the provisions of Directive 98/37/EC;

conforms to the essential safety requirements of the following EEC directives:

73/23/EEC and subsequent amendment 93/68/EEC.

89/336/EEC and subsequent amendment 92/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC

and also declares that it is prohibited to put into service the machinery until the machine in which it will be integrated or of which it will become a component has been identified and declared as conforming to the conditions of Directive 98/37/EC.

WARNINGS FOR THE INSTALLER

GENERAL SAFETY OBLIGATIONS

1) ATTENTION! To ensure the safety of people, it is important that you read all the following instructions. Incorrect installation or incorrect use of the product could cause serious harm to people.

2)Carefully read the instructions before beginning to install the product.

3)Do not leave packing materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) within reach

of children as such materials are potential sources of danger.

4)Store these instructions for future reference.

5)This product was designed and built strictly for the use indicated in this documentation. Any other use, not expressly indicated here, could compromise the good condition/operation of the product and/or be a source of danger.

6)FAAC declines all liability caused by improper use or use other than that for which the automated system was intended.

7)Do not install the equipment in an explosive atmosphere: the presence of inflammable gas or fumes is a serious danger to safety.

8)The mechanical parts must conform to the provisions of Standards EN 12604 and EN 12605.

For non-EU countries, to obtain an adequate level of safety, the Standards mentioned above must be observed, in addition to national legal regulations.

9)FAAC is not responsible for failure to observe Good Technique in the construction of the closing elements to be motorised, or for any deformation that may occur during use.

10)The installation must conform to Standards EN 12453 and EN 12445. For non-EU countries, to obtain an adequate level of safety, the

Standards mentioned above must be observed, in addition to national legal regulations.

11)Before attempting any job on the system, cut out electrical power .

12)The mains power supply of the automated system must be fitted with an all-pole switch with contact opening distance of 3mm or greater. Use of a 6A thermal breaker with all-pole circuit break is recommended.

13)Make sure that a differential switch with threshold of 0.03 A is fitted upstream of the system.

14)Make sure that the earthing system is perfectly constructed, and connect metal parts of the means of the closure to it.

15)The safety devices (EN 12978 standard) protect any danger areas against mechanical movement Risks, such as crushing, dragging, and shearing.

16)Use of at least one indicator-light (e.g. FAACLIGHT ) is recommended for every system, as well as a warning sign adequately secured to the frame structure, in addition to the devices mentioned at point “15”.

17)FAAC declines all liability as concerns safety and efficient operation of the automated system, if system components not produced by FAAC are used.

18)For maintenance, strictly use original parts by FAAC.

19)Do not in any way modify the components of the automated system.

20)The installer shall supply all information concerning manual operation of the system in case of an emergency, and shall hand over to the user the warnings handbook supplied with the product.

21)Do not allow children or adults to stay near the product while it is operating.

22)Keep remote controls or other pulse generators away from children, to prevent the automated system from being activated involuntarily.

23)Transit through the leaves is allowed only when the gate is fully open.

24)The user must not attempt any kind of repair or direct action whatever and contact qualified personnel only.

25)Maintenance: check at least every 6 months the efficiency of the system, particularly the efficiency of the safety devices (including, where foreseen, the operator thrust force) and of the release devices.

26)Anything not expressly specified in these instructions is not permitted.

FAAC 400 User Manual

AUTOMATED SYSTEM 400

These instructions apply to the following models:

400 CBC - 400 CBAC - 400 SB - 400 SBS - 400 CBACR - 400 CBAC long - 400 SB long.

The FAAC 400 automated system for swing leaf gates consists of an enbloc composed of an electric pump and a hydraulic

piston which transmits drive to the leaf.

The models with hydraulic locking hold the gate open in the open or closed position, for security additional locking such as electric locks are required.

The models without a hydraulic locking, require the installation of electric locks to ensure the leaf is mechanically locked.

The 400 automated systems were designed and built to automate swing leaf gates. Do not use for any other purpose.
