UL325 Entrapment Protection Requirements

Definitions

ENTRAPMENT: The condition when a person is caught or held in a position that increases the risk of injury. SLIDE GATE ENTRAPMENT ZONE: An entrapment zone exists if at any point during travel, the gap between the gate and any opposing fixed edge or surface such as posts, walls, pillars, columns or the operator itself, is less than 16" (406 mm) in a location up to 6 ft. (1.8 m) above grade. INDEPENDENT MONITORED ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION DEVICE: An entrapment protection device is independent if it is a different type (photoelectric sensors, edge device, inherent protection device) from the other devices in the same entrapment zone. Use the Site Planning Safety Checklist in the appendix to identify entrapment zones found in your installation.

Requirements

•

A minimum of two independent monitored entrapment protection devices are required to be installed at each entrapment zone.

• It is the responsibility of the installer to install external monitored

entrapment protection devices for each entrapment zone.

•

The operator will only operate with a minimum of two independent monitored entrapment protection devices installed in each direction; two in the open direction and two in the closed direction.

Acceptable entrapment protection device types include:

• Inherent (built into the operator) - Model HDSL24UL ONLY.

NOTE: Model HDFSL24UL does not rely on the inherent built into the operator and mandates the use of external entrapment protection devices to operate.

• LiftMaster monitored external photoelectric sensors, see page 50 for acceptable sensors.

• LiftMaster monitored external edge sensors, see page 50 for acceptable sensors.

IMPORTANT SAFETY

To reduce the risk of INJURY or DEATH:

• READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

• NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children.

• ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.

• Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with an object or reverse when an object activates the noncontact sensors. After adjusting the speed, 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.

• Use the manual release ONLY when the gate is not moving.

• KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read this manual. Have a Trained Gate Systems Technician make repairs to gate hardware.

• The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate entrance.

• SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

INSTRUCTIONS

Safety Installation Information

SAFETY

1. Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate systems are comprised of many component parts. The gate operator is only one component. Each gate system is specifically designed for an individual application.

2. Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take into account the possible hazards associated with each individual application. Improperly designed, installed or maintained systems can create risks for the user as well as the bystander. Gate systems design and installation must reduce exposure to potential hazards.

3. A gate operator can create high levels of force in its function as a component part of a gate system. Therefore, safety features must be incorporated into every gate system design. Specific safety features include:

• Edges Sensors (contact)

• Guards for Exposed Rollers

• Photoelectric Sensors

• Screen Mesh

• Instructional and Precautionary Signage

4. Install the gate operator only when:

a. The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage

class of the gate.

b. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened

from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6 feet (1.8 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inches (6 cm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.

c. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding

is supplied for exposed rollers.

5. The gate operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the pedestrian access such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.

6. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.

7. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator.

8. Permanently mounted access controls intended for users to activate, must be located at least 6 feet (1.8m) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized personnel (e.g. fire, police) may be placed at any location in the line-of-sight of the gate.

9. For a gate operator utilizing a Stop and/or Reset button, it must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.

10. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed in the area of the gate. Each warning sign is to be visible by persons located on the side of the gate on which the sign is installed.

11. For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor:

a. See Install Entrapment Protection section for placement of non-

contact sensor for each type of application.

b. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping,

such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.

c. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of

entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.

12. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:

a. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of

entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.

b. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring

arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subject to mechanical damage.

c. A wireless device such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF)

signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless device shall function under the intended end-use conditions.

Role of Dealers, Installers, and Trained Gate System Technicians

• Ensure entire system being designed manufactured and installed meets all applicable standards and codes including UL 325 and ASTM F2200.

• Demonstrate the basic functions and safety features of the gate system to owners/end users/general contractors, including how to turn off power and how to operate the manual disconnect feature.

• Leave safety instructions, product literature, installation manual and maintenance manual with end user.

• Explain to the owners the importance of testing by a trained gate system technician that includes a routine re-testing of the entire system including the entrapment protection devices, and explain the need for the owners to insure that this testing is performed monthly.

Role of End Users/Home Owners

• Contact a trained gate systems technician to maintain and repair the gate system (End users should never attempt to repair the gate system).

• Retain and utilize the installation manual and maintenance and important safety instructions; see page 38.

• Routinely check all gate operator functions and gate movement.

• Discontinue use if safety systems operate improperly, the gate is damaged, or the gate is difficult to move. Contact trained gate systems technician to repair the gate system.

• Prominently display and maintain warning signs on both sides of the gate.

Wire Entrapment Protection Devices

There are three options for wiring external entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the manual included with your entrapment protection device for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors. Only one monitored entrapment protection device may be wired to each input. Additional monitored entrapment protection devices may be wired to the expansion board.

NOTE: Board inputs for entrapment protection devices are yellow.

Control Board

CLOSES EYES/INTERRUPT

(2 Terminals) The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position and resets the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.

CLOSE EDGE

(2 Terminals) The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse to the full open position, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.

OPEN EYES/EDGE

(2 Terminals) The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor entrapment protection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing.

Switch set to CLOSE: gate reverses fully when an obstruction is sensed Switch set to OPEN: gate reverses 4 seconds when an obstruction is

sensed

WIRELESS EDGE

Connection for wireless edge receiver. NOTE: ONLY one wireless edge receiver may be connected to an operator. Up to 4 wireless edge transmitters LMWETXU may be programmed to the receiver.

INSTALLATION

Step 5 Earth Ground Rod

Use the proper earth ground rod for your local area. The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single wire length.

1. Install the earth ground rod within 3 feet (.9 m) of the operator.

2. Run wire from the earth ground rod to the operator.

NOTE: If the operator is not grounded properly the range of the remote controls will be reduced and the operator will be more susceptible to lightning and surge damage.

Step 6 Power Wiring

To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:

• ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power (AC or solar and battery) and locking-out the power via the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.

• Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical codes. NOTE: The operator should be on a

separate fused line of adequate capacity.

• ALL electrical connections MUST be made by a qualified individual.

• DO NOT install ANY wiring or attempt to run the operator without consulting the wiring diagram.

• ALL power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit and well protected. The location of the power disconnect should be visible and clearly labeled.

• ALL power and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduit.

The operator can be wired for either 120 Vac or 240 Vac or a solar panel (not provided). Follow the directions according to your application. An optional Transformer Kit (Model 3PHCONV) can be used to change the input voltage (208/240/480/575 Vac) to an output voltage of 120 Vac (refer to Accessories). For dual gate applications, power will have to be connected to each operator. Main power supply and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduits.

SOLAR APPLICATIONS: For solar applications see page 48 in the Solar Panels section. Follow the directions according to your application.

NOTE: If using an external receiver use shielded wire for the connections and mount the receiver away from the operator to avoid interference from the operator.

INSTALLATION

All control wiring used to connect external devices to Class 2 circuits of the operator must be (QPTZ) Power-Limited Circuit Cables, Type CL2, CL2P, CL2R, or CL2X or other cable with equivalent or better electrical, mechanical, and flammability ratings.

1. Turn off the AC power from the main power source circuit breaker.

2. Run the AC power wires to the operator.

3. Make sure the operator AC switch is in the OFF position, see page

18.

4. Remove the junction box cover from the electrical box by loosening the screws and sliding the cover to the side.

120 Vac: Factory default is 120 Vac. Skip to 5. 240 Vac: Unplug the power wiring connector from the 120 Vac

socket (factory default location) and plug it into the 240 Vac socket.

NOTE: The accessory outlets are disabled and cannot be used with

the 240 Vac option.

6. Connect the incoming green wire to the earth ground nut.

7. Connect the white wire to NEUTRAL using a wire nut.

8. Connect the black wire to HOT using a wire nut.

9. Replace the junction box cover. Ensure the wires are not pinched.

Plug In Transformer Power

Wire plug in transformer power as shown.

AC Power Switch

The AC switch on the operator turns the incoming 120/240 Vac power ON or OFF. The AC switch ONLY turns off AC power to the control board and DOES NOT turn off battery power.

Battery Switch

The battery switch turns the battery power on or off.
