Description
A 24V arm kit for busy pairs of swing gates. The kit has two pivoting arm operators that fix to the inside of medium or large pillars. One operator has the digital control unit built in, so there is no separate control box to mount, and the 24V motors are rated for an 80% duty cycle, so they cope with gates that open and close all day. Each leaf can be up to 2.8m long and 300kg. The kit includes photocells, two remote controls and a receiver card. The price shown is for one kit.
Why choose it
Made for frequent use. 24V DC motors with an 80% duty cycle, against 20% for a typical 230V arm.
Control unit built in. The master operator carries the controller with a display and 3 programming buttons; the slave plugs into it.
Safe stopping. Obstacle detection, programmable soft start and stop, and self-learning of the opening and closing times.
Backup and solar ready. Runs through a power cut with the optional backup battery, or from solar power with the ECO-LOGIC system.
Where it is used
Driveway gates on houses and flats, and entrance gates at offices, schools and business units where the gates are used many times a day.

Installation and safety
Powered gates must be installed by a competent installer, with the mains supply wired by a qualified electrician, and the finished gate should be risk assessed and force tested to BS EN 12453. The photocells in the kit are part of that safety system: fit them across the opening so the gate stops if anything is in its path.

Fitting
Fix each operator to the inside face of its pillar on the fixing plate, then fit the arm bracket to the gate leaf. Wire the slave operator to the master, fit the photocells across the opening and run the self-learning cycle. The 230V supply to the master operator must be connected by a qualified electrician.
Care
Keep the arm pivots clean and check the fixings every 6 months. Test the photocells and the obstacle detection regularly, and have the system serviced by a competent installer at least once a year.
Frequently asked questions

With the optional backup battery it keeps working; without it, unlock the operators with the release keys and open the gates by hand.
How big a gate will it move?
Each leaf can be up to 2.8m long and up to 300kg. For heavier leaves look at our articulated arm or ram kits.
Is it suitable for a busy gate?
