402 Installation
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Both the installer and the owner and/or operator of this
system need to read and understand this installation
manual and the safety instructions supplied with other
components of the gate system. This information
should be retained by the owner and/or operator of the
gate.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury or death
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Never let children operate or play with gate
controls. Keep the remote control away from
children.
3. Always keep people and objects away from
the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE
PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
4. Test the gate operator monthly. The gate
MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object
or stop when an object activates the noncontact sensors. After adjusting the force or
the limit of travel, retest the gate operator.
Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator
properly can increase the risk of injury or
death.
5. Use the emergency release only when the
gate is not moving.
6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read
the owner’s manual. Have a qualified service
person make repairs to gate hardware.
7. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians
must use separate entrance.
8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
When installing the photo-beams supplied with this
unit two things need to be considered.
1. Care should be exercised to reduce the risk of
nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips
the sensor while the gate is in motion.
2. One or more photobeams shall be located
where the risk of entrapment exists, such as
the perimeter reachable by the moving gate
leaf.
GATE DESIGN
1. A gate is a potential traffic hazard, so it is important that you locate the gate far enough away
from the road to eliminate the potential of traffic
getting backed up. This distance is affected by the
size of the gate, how often it is used, and how fast
the gate operates.
2. The operator you choose to install on your gate
must be designed for the type and size of your gate
and for the frequency with which you use the
operator.
3. Your gate must be properly installed and must work
freely in both directions before the automatic
operator is installed.
4. An automatic operator should be installed on the
inside of the property/fence line. Do not install the
operator on the public side of the property/fence
line.
5. Pedestrians should not use a vehicular gate system.
Prevent such inappropriate use by installing
separate gates for pedestrians.
6. Exposed, reachable pinch points on a gate are
potentially hazardous and must be eliminated or
guarded.
7. Outward swinging gates with automatic operators
should not open into a public area.
8. The operating controls for an automatic gate must
be secured to prevent the unauthorized use of those
controls.
9. The controls for an automatic gate should be
located far enough from the gate so that a user
cannot accidentally touch the gate when operating
the controls.
10. An automatic gate operator should not be installed
on a gate if people can reach or extend their arms
or legs through the gate. Such gates should be
guarded or screened to prevent such access.
INSTALLATION
1. If you have any question about the safety of the
gate operating system, do not install this operator.
Consult the operator manufacturer.
2. The condition of the gate structure itself directly
affects the reliability and safety of the gate
operator.
3. Only qualified personnel should install this
equipment. Failure to meet this requirement could
cause severe injury and/or death, for which the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
4. The installer must provide a main power switch that
meets all applicable safety regulations.
5. Clearly indicate on the gate with the 2 warning signs
that are included (visible from either side of the
gate).

6. It is extremely unsafe to compensate for a damaged
gate by increasing hydraulic pressure.
7. Devices such as reversing edges and photobeams
must be installed to provide better protection for
personal property and pedestrians. Install reversing
devices that are appropriate to the gate design and
gate application.
8. Before applying electrical power, be sure that the
voltage requirements of the equipment correspond
to your supply voltage. Refer to the label on your
operator system.
USE
1. Use this equipment only in the capacity for which it
was designed. Any use other than that stated should
be considered improper and therefore dangerous.
2. When using any electrical equipment, observe some
fundamental rules:
• Do not touch the equipment with damp or
humid hands or feet.

THE CONTROL PANEL
The 402 Operator must be installed with a 450 MPS
control panel to be a U.L. recognized installation. The
450 MPS can be used to control a single 402 operator
or a dual (bi-parting) system. Both the control panel
and the operator must use the same power supply
voltage.
THE 450 MPS
To determine the voltage requirement of your 450 MPS
control panel, refer to the label on the transformer of
the control panel:
Label reads: 1450MPSUS = 220 VAC
1450MPSUS115 = 115 VAC
Operating logics available: E, EP, A, S, B, and C

UNPACKING THE OPERATOR
When you receive your 402 Compact Operator, complete
the following steps.
Inspect the shipping box for physical damage such as
leaking oil or a torn carton. Then inspect the operator
after you remove it from the box. Notify the carrier
immediately if you note any damage because the carrier
must witness the damage before you can file a claim.
As you unpack the box, insure that all the parts listed
below are included (see Figure 1). If you have ordered a
kit (a pair of operators), you will have twice the quantity
of parts listed below (except where noted), and you will

THE 402 COMPACT OPERATOR
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The 402 Compact Operator is an automatic, light-duty
gate operator it can accommodate a gate leaf up to 10 ft
(3m) in length and up to 900 lbs (410 kg) in weight.
Note: The 402 Compact Operators are not
recommended for use with solid gates.
The self contained 402 operator is an electro-hydraulic
unit consisting of an electric motor, a pump, a valve
assembly and a hydraulic cylinder, all housed in an
anodized aluminum oil reservoir.
All models of the 402 operator have one hydraulic lock.
The CBC version is designed to lock when the piston is
extended. The CBA version is designed to lock when the
piston is retracted.
The hydraulic lock is a service device rather than a
security device. Additional external locks are
recommended under the following conditions:
• Your gate leaf is 10 ft or longer.
• Your installation site requires tight security.
• Your gate site is subject to vandalism.
• Your gate site is subject to strong or very
gusty wind.
• Your gate system has an open-hold-open
device.
The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based
controller that accepts a range of product accessories
and reversing devices to allow flexibility in designing
the gate system. The 450 MPS control panel allows you
to set the opening/closing time, a leaf delay for a twoleaf gate system, the operating logic for your gate
system, the pause time, the reversing stroke, and the
behavior of reversing devices.
For its protection, the single phase, bi-directional
electric motor shuts off automatically if its operating
temperature reaches 212 deg F (100 deg C). Also for the
protection and proper operation of the 402 operator,
each gate leaf on which it is installed must have a fixed
positive stop in both the open and closed positions.
The 402 Operator also includes a triangular key
operated Manual Release Mechanism and two bypass
valves which precisely control the force applied to the
gate leave(s). The Manual Release Mechanism is a key
operated device that disengages or engages the
hydraulic system of the 402 Operator. When the
hydraulic system is disengaged, you can open and close
the gate leaf by hand. Such manual operation of the
gate leaf is necessary during installation and useful
during power failures.
The two bypass valves located on the top of the
operator needs to be adjusted to meet the safety
standards of FAAC International, Inc. The standards
state the gate leaf should stop, if it encounters a force
greater than 33 lbs. (15 kg). Once the pressures are
adjusted, the by pass valve screws are covered so that
the pressures are not altered.
Additional reversing devices such as photobeams or
reversing edges should be installed to provide more
complete safety for people and property.
The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based
controller that accepts a wide range of product
accessories and reversing devices. Thus allowing for
flexible gate system design.
450 MPS LOGIC MODES
Note: The 450 provides inputs for opening
reversing devices and closing reversing devices.
FAAC strongly recommends the use of reversing
devices, such as photocells or other non-contact
sensors.
• A (automatic): The gate opens on command
and automatically closes after a pause phase. A
second command on opening is ignored; a
second command during the pause phase
interrupts the pause time; a second command
during closing reopens the gate. A maintained
open command will hold the gate open.
• S (security): The security mode is like A logic
except that a second command during opening
immediately closes the gate. A maintained
open command will not hold the gate open.
• E (semi-automatic): This mode requires a
command to open and a command to close. A
second command during opening or closing
causes the gate leaves to stop. A third
command then closes the gate.
• EP (semi-automatic, step by step): This mode
requires a command to open and a command to
close. A second command during opening or
closing causes the gate leaves to stop. A third
command then reverses the previous motion of
the gate.
• B (manned, pulsed): This mode is designed for
guard station use and requires a three-button
switch (pulsed) to open, close, and stop the
gate.
• C (manned and constant): This mode requires
constant pressure switches. One to open and
one to close. No pressure on a switch stops the
gate.
