PPA VOLT GATE, VOLT GATE IND Technical Manual

1. INTRODUCTION: TECHNICAL
FEATURES OF THE ELECTRONIC
SYSTEM

PPA's Volt Gate UPS has been specially developed to be
used with automatic gate openers. It has special features which
allows it to work with PPA's ECUs in order to reduce the energy
consumption when the device is working by bat tery operation.
It is also endowed with a stabilizer on the circuit in order to
compensate potential power fluctuations on the power grid.

WARNING

Before using this devi ce, closely read and follow all the
instructions herein..

3. SYSTEM POWER

The power supply must be connected according to the previous
images. Volt Gate UPS has a fixed working voltage, either 127V / 60
Hz or 220V / 60Hz which must be specified by the user at the time of
the purchase.

NOTE: This device is not dual vo ltage.

The battery used to power PPA’s Volt Gate UPS during a power
supply failure must be a 12V stationary battery specific for UPS
and must have a capacity equal or higher than 45Ah (Amp-hour)
so that the equipment delivers the specified power.

The full-load charge time of the batteries can vary according to
their Ah capacities; the built-in charger supplies about 13.8V with

a current limiter of 1.5A.

4. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

4.1. AC Power Connection

Volt Gate UPS supplies the voltage to the PPA operator's ECU
through the built-in power plug.

WARNING

When using Single-phase ECUs, one must set the e lectronic
clutch (strength) to the maximum level.

4.2. Connecting the 4-lead communication cable
between the UPS and the ECU

The 4-lead INFO UPS can be used to connect PPA's Volt Gate
electronic board to the operator ECU (TRIFLEX CONNECT ). By doing
so, the UPS tells the ECU it is working by batter y operation; thus
the PPA ECU reduces the energy consumption during operation in
order to increase the operational capacity (autonomy). Besides, it can
warn the UPS to switch the power stage off when the motor is not
working, which reduces even more the battery energy consumption

CONNECT THE BLACK CABLE OF THE U PS BOARD
(C2) TO THE NEGATIVE (-) POLE OF THE BATTERY B

when the gate is still; this way only the input and RF receiver
commands are energized directly through the battery.
The communication cable length used to connect the PPA UPS and
the ECU must be a 20-meter (65.62 f ) cable or shorter.

WARNING

This connection is man datory o n the swing models DZ
1500, 2500 IND and DZ Condominium .

4.3. Connecting the 2-lead communication cable
between the UPS and the ECU

The PPA's Volt Gate UPS electronic board can also be connected
to the operator ECU (TRIFLEX TOP) through the 2-lead INFO
connector. This way, the UPS tells the tells the ECU it is working
by batter y operation; thus the PPA ECU reduces the energy
consumption during operation in order to increase the operational
capacity (autonomy).

The connection does not interfere on the ECU operation, even
if it is connected to a terminal (borne) used by it, since the data is
sent simultaneously to the commands. When using the TRIFLEX
ECUs, one must connect it to the ABR + GND terminals (bornes)
and when using automatic door's INVERTER ECUs, one must
connect it to the RECEPTOR connector (two pins to the right of the
receiver).

WARNING

This connection is man datory o n the swing models DZ
2500 IND, DZ 1500 IND and DZ Cond ominium, in c ase
the ECU does not have the 4-le ad connec ted previously
addressed.

4.4. Cross Section of the Power and
Communication Cables

EThe cables gauge must be larger when the distance between the
Volt Gate UPS and the ECU increases, according to the next chart:
