LINCE 400 mechanism - Dimensions

Lince 400 mechanism dimensions

The Motorline Professional LINCE 400 motors have convenient dimensions and an attractive design.

Visual inspections during the installation of a swing gate mechanism

The first point to check when installing a swing gate mechanism is whether there is space for the arm. We open the door 90^o and observe if there is space behind it for the mechanism. If the door abuts a structural element or another obstacle (like the left leaf in the diagram below), then a mechanism cannot be installed without modifying the door or creating the appropriate space. (in this case, digging out the structural element and creating space for the motor)

swing gate spaces

Depending on the user's needs, the gate can be open-type or closed-type. Open-type gates allow visibility and air passage, as they are usually designed with railings. In contrast, closed-type gates do not allow visibility to and from the area and, of course, wind passage. This often makes movement difficult, as wind pressure exerts great forces on the gate and consequently on the mechanism. Therefore, in areas where strong winds prevail, it is wrong to install a mechanism on a blind swing gate. In the best case, the gate will not function properly (it will partially close) when there is wind pressure, and there is a high probability that the mechanism will be damaged.

This point requires special attention, as no manufacturer's warranty covers damage caused by wind pressure. In many cases, we could have better gate behavior by installing a stronger mechanism and/or an electric lock. In most cases, however, our advice is not to install a swing mechanism on a blind gate unless it is protected from strong wind pressures. (e.g., in densely populated areas, if there is a tall building in front, etc.). A sketch of a single-leaf and double-leaf gate follows:

double swing gate wind pressure

There are 2 conditions for installing automation on a gate:

It must operate correctly manually
It must have a mechanical stop

The motor, both in the open and closed positions, pushes the door and stops at the stop. In the case of a single-leaf door, the structural element against which the door abuts when closing can serve as the stop. In the diagram below, 1 indicates the stop at the closing point of the door and 2 indicates the stop at the open position of the door. Detailed diagrams of left single-leaf, right single-leaf, and double-leaf gates follow:

Swing gate mechanism installation distances - Operating modes

Swing gate mechanisms can operate in 2 ways:

1st way: They pull the gate to open it and push it to close it. (opening inwards)

2nd way: They push the gate to open it and pull it to close it. (opening outwards)

The distances 'X' and 'Y' for the mounting position of the mechanism must comply with the tables and diagrams below for both installation methods.

1st way:

swing mechanism opening inwards

FOR 95⁰ OPENING INWARDS	X (in mm)	Y (in mm)
MECHANISM with 400mm stroke	120 to 180	120 to 180
MECHANISM with 600mm stroke	120 to 350	120 to 200

2nd way:

swing mechanism opening outwards

FOR 95⁰ OPENING OUTWARDS	X (in mm)	Y (in mm)
MECHANISM with 400mm stroke	160 to 200	120 to 180
MECHANISM with 600mm stroke	160 to 300	120 to 280

Single leaf swing garage door - wiring

single leaf swing mechanism wiring

(1) The mechanism requires a 3x1.5mm² or 3x2.5mm² cable if the automation installation point is far from the control panel. (It is advisable for the mechanism to have a separate fuse on the control panel.) The cable must be waterproof and in a conduit with a diameter of at least Φ16. The length of cable left by the electrician should be sufficient (1.5m) to reach the location of the electronic control panel.
(2) Wired photocells require a 4×0.6mm² cable for the receiver and a 2×0.6mm² cable for the transmitter. Usually, we install the receiver close to the mechanism and the panel. If it is not possible to run a cable across for the photocells, we can install reflector photocells which only require wiring on one side. (so line 2 is not required)

Notes:

Single or double leaf gate requires one control panel.
Heliflex type PVC flexible conduits are most suitable for this type of installation.
Wiring must be protected and watertight to prevent short circuits, etc.

Double leaf swing garage door - wiring

double swing gate wiring

(1) The mechanism requires a 4x1.5mm² or 4x2.5mm² cable if the automation installation point is far from the control panel. (It is advisable for the mechanism to have a separate fuse on the control panel.) The cable must be waterproof and in a conduit with a diameter of at least Φ16. The length of cable left by the electrician should be sufficient (1.5m) to reach the location of the electronic control panel.
(2) Wired photocells require a 4×0.6mm² cable for the receiver and a 2×0.6mm² cable for the transmitter. Usually, we install the receiver close to the mechanism and the panel. If it is not possible to run a cable across for the photocells, we can install reflector photocells which only require wiring on one side. (so line 2 is not required)
(4) For push-button (or key-switch), a 2x0.5mm² cable is required (not included in the kit).
(5) The remote control receiver requires a 3x0.5mm² cable (in our case, it is integrated into the panel).
(6) The safety light requires a 2x1.5mm² cable (not included in the kit).
(7) The electric lock requires a 2x1.5mm² cable (not included in the kit).

Notes:

Single or double leaf gate requires one control panel.
Heliflex type PVC flexible conduits are most suitable for this type of installation.
Wiring must be protected and watertight to prevent short circuits, etc.

Remote controls for ProfelmNet PSD-36T swing mechanisms

You can add up to 5 ProfelmNet PSD-36T remote controls at 433.92 MHz to the swing gate mechanism kits (if you need more, please inform us by phone or email). The ProfelmNet PSD-36T remote controls are easy to use, practical, and functional. They can store up to 4 gates. They are fixed code 12-bit at 433.92 MHz. They can copy remote controls of the same type and older fixed code ones that operate at 433.92 MHz.

Detailed description of NOLOGO IR5001P / Zoom-Z2E wired photocells

The NOLOGO IR5001P / Zoom-Z2E photocells consist of a transmitter and receiver and have a range of 20m. They are wired, so they require separate wiring for both the transmitter and receiver, which will lead to the control panel.

Technical characteristics of NOLOGO IR5001P / Zoom-Z2E photocells:

Operating voltage: 12 or 24 V DC, 12 or 24 V AC
Maximum operating distance: 20m
Maximum switch contact current: 0.5 A at 48 V AC/DC
Transmitter operating current: 25 mA
Receiver operating current: 35 mA
Interference rejection circuit from other light sources
Automatic focusing

The usual mounting height for photocells is about 50cm from the ground.

Safety photocells minimally increase the installation cost, but the protection they provide is very important and prevents material damage as well as injuries to passers-by, children, pets, etc.

They are highly reliable, work even with small deviations in their alignment (they have automatic focusing), and are not significantly affected by weather conditions.

Description of Witt Sensoric RP25 reflector safety photocells

reflector photocells

These photocells belong to the category of wireless photocells as they only require wiring on one side. The transceiver is installed on the side where wiring is required. The reflector, which measures 10x10cm, is installed on the opposite side.

The dimensions of the transceiver are shown in detail in the diagram below:

wireless photocell transceiver dimensions

Their size is convenient and does not create problems in most installations.

The above photocells also offer the following advantages:

In addition to not requiring wiring, they also do not require batteries like other wireless photocells. This practically means that the user installs them and never has to deal with them again.
The large reflective surface of the reflector makes their operation more reliable.
The design of Witt Sensoric RP25 photocells is suitable for outdoor use, making them suitable for garage door applications.
They have a range of 15m, making them suitable for most garage doors/gates.
They are not interfered with by sunlight or other light sources because they operate with a polarized light filter. This means they can detect even reflective objects between the transceiver and the reflector, so they are not easily fooled by the polished surface of a car.
