Installation Dimensions
Diagram Description: The diagram shows the recommended distances for proper operation. It illustrates the placement of the control box relative to the gate arm, indicating measurements such as 36 inches from the control box to the arm's mounting point, a 6-inch vertical offset, and a 5.5-inch distance from the pivot point to the arm's connection. The overall arm length is shown as 29.5 inches. It also specifies an 8-inch minimum backspace requirement.
Cabinet Dimensions: The cabinet is shown with dimensions of 15.5 inches in height, 10 inches in width, and 6.25 inches in depth. It also indicates a hole size of 0.313 inches.
Arm Dimensions: The arm is depicted with a length of 32.5 inches. Other dimensions shown are 4 inches, 3.1 inches, and 2.7 inches, indicating the arm's profile and connection points.
Cautions
- Automatic gate operators are designed for vehicular traffic only. They are powerful and can cause serious injury or death. Direct all pedestrian traffic towards a separate pedestrian gate.
- Automatic gates are not intended for pedestrian use.
- UL325 requires the use of contact or non-contact anti-entrapment devices.
