USER’S MANUAL
ENGLISH
Thank you for buying this product, our company is sure that you will be
more than satisfied with the product’s performance. The product is supplied
with a “Warnings” leaflet and an “Instruction booklet”. These should both
be read carefully as they provide important information about safety,
installation, operation and maintenance. This product complies with the
recognised technical standards and safety regulations. We declare that
this product is in conformity with the following European Directives: 89/336/
EEC and 73/23/EEC (and subsequent amendments).
1) GENERAL OUTLINE
The DEIMOS actuator offers ample installation versatility, thanks to the
extremely low position of its pinion, its compact shape and the height and
depth adjustments available. The adjustable mechanical clutch ensures
antisquash safety and provides smooth progressive starting operations.
The emergency manual release manoeuvre can be carried out very easily
by means of a knob supplied with a standard key, or an optional personalised
key. The end-of-stroke stop is controlled by electromechanical
microswitches or, for very cold areas, by proximity sensors. The control unit
can be either incorporated or fitted to a separate panel.
2) SAFETY
If correctly installed and used, this automation device satisfies the required
safety level standards. However, it is advisable to observe some practical
rules in order to avoid accidental problems.
Before using the automation device, carefully read the operation instructions
and keep them for future reference.
• Keep children, persons and things outside the automation working
area, particularly during operation.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children’s reach, in
order to avoid any unintentional automation activation.
• Do not intentionally oppose the leaf movement.
• Do not attempt to open the gate by hand, if the actuator has not been
released by means of the appropriate release knob.
• Do not modify the automation components.
• In case of malfunction, disconnect the power supply, activate the
emergency release to gain access to the actuator and request the
assistance of a qualified technician (installer).
• Before proceeding to any external cleaning operation, disconnect the
mains powers supply and at least one of the battery pole, if fitted.
• Keep the photocell optical components and luminous signal indication
devices clean. Check that the safety devices (photocells) are not
obscured by branches or shrubs.
• For any direct assistance to the automation system, request the
assistance of a qualified technician (installer).
• Have qualified personnel check the automation system once a year.
3) MANUAL RELEASE
The manual or emergency release is to be activated when a gate must be
opened by hand, and in all cases where the automation system fails to
operate or operates incorrectly. To carry out the emergency manoeuvre,
proceed as follows:
• Insert the standard key into its appropriate seat (fig. 1) and rotate it
anticlockwise (90°), then rotate the release knob clockwise along its
entire stroke. This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows
the gate to be opened by hand.
Warning: Do not push the gate leaf hard, but rather help it along its
entire stroke.
• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its
entire stroke, and then rotate the standard key clockwise until it is held
tight. Keep the key in a safe place which is known to all the people
concerned.
In the case where the release knob is supplied with a personalised key (fig.
2), proceed as follows:
• Insert the personalised key into the lock, rotate the key anticlockwise by
90°.
• Hold the release knob and rotate it clockwise (fig. 2) until it stops. This
way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows the gate to be
opened by hand.
• Push the gate leaf by hand, helping it along its entire stroke.
The key cannot be taken out of the lock until the knob is brought back
to its initial position (motor-driven activation).
• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its
entire stroke, move the key back to its locking position; then take the key
out and keep it in a safe place which is known to all the people
concerned.
4) MAINTENANCE AND DEMOLITION

4) PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before proceeding to any installation work, check that the gate structure
conforms to whatever is prescribed by the current standards, and in
particular that:
• The gate sliding track is linear and horizontal, and the wheels are
suitable for supporting the gate weight.
• The gate manual operation can be carried out smoothly along its entire
run, and there is no excessive side slipping.
• A correct play is provided between the upper guide and the gate to
ensure regular noiseless movement.
• The opening and closing gate stops are positioned.
• The established position for gearmotor fixing allows the emergency
manoeuvre to be carried out smoothly and safely. In the case where the
elements checked do not meet the above requirements, proceed to
carrying out the necessary corrective actions or replacements.
WARNING: Remember that control devices are intended to facilitate
gate operation, but can not solve problems due to any defects or
deficiency resulting from failure to carry out correct installation or
maintenance.
Take the product out of its packing and inspect it for damage. Should it be
damaged, contact your dealer. Remember to dispose of its components
(cardboard, polystyrene, nylon, etc.) according to the current prescriptions.
5) BASE PLATE ANCHORING
5.1) Standard position
• Dig a hole where the cement pad with the buried base plate log bolts is
to be placed in order to fix the reduction gear unit (fig.3). If the sliding
track is already there, digging must be partly carried out in the track
foundation casting. This way, should the track foundation casting sag,
the gearmotor base would also lower, thus maintaining the play between
pinion and rack (approximately 1-2 mm).
• Position the base plate according to the dimensions specified in fig.4.
• The pinion symbol printed on the base plate must be visible and directed
towards the gate. This also ensures the correct positioning of the
raceways for electrical connections.
• Let the flexible pipes containing electrical cables protrude from the
base plate.
• In order to keep the base plate in its correct position during installation,
it may be useful to weld two iron flat bars under the track, and then weld

14 - DEIMOS Ver. 05

ENGLISH
the log bolts onto them (fig.3).
• Make a concrete casting in such a way as to embody the base plate
casting into that of the gate track.
• Accurately check that:
The positioning dimensions are correct.
That the base plate is well levelled.
That the 4 stud threads are well clear of cement.
Let the casting harden.
5.2) Other positions
The gearmotor can be positioned in different ways. As an example, fig.5
illustrates a particular type of installation. In the case where the gearmotor
is not fixed on the level of the sliding track (Standard position), you must
ensure that the gearmotor is tightly secured also in relation to the gate
position, so as to maintain a correct play (1-2mm) between rack and
pinion. The current safety standards with respect to persons, animals and
things must be strictly observed, and in particular risks of accidents due to
squashing in the area of pinion-rack meshing, as well as other mechanical
risks, must be carefully avoided.
All the critical spots must be protected by safety devices in compli-
ance with the current prescriptions.
6) GEARMOTOR FIXING
When the casting has hardened, observe fig. 6 and proceed as follows:
• Position an M10 nut on each of the tie rods, keeping a distance of at least
25mm from the base to allow the gearmotor to be lowered after the
installation is completed, or for subsequent adjustments of the play
between pinion and rack.
• Position a plate “P” supplied as standard on each pair of tie rods and, with
the help of a level, adjust the plane in both directions.
• Remove the cover and screw-cover guard from the gearmotor, and
position the reduction gear unit on the four tie rods with the pinion
facing the gate.
• Position the four washers and screw the four gearmotor locking bolts.
• Adjust the depth of the gearmotor, making it slide in the appropriate slots
found in the base, and fix it at a distance between pinion and gate which
is adequate to the type of rack to be installed. The rack teeth must mesh
into the pinion along their entire width. In the paragraph headed “Rack
fitting” we specify the measurements and installation methods of the
most widely used types of rack.
7) RACK FITTING
A rack having a 4 tooth pitch must be fitted to the gate. As far as the length
is concerned, this must include the passage space, as well as the space for
securing the brackets activating the limit microswitches, and for the pinion
meshing section. There are different types of rack, each one differing in
terms of capacity and gate fixing method. The Company markets three
types of racks, which are.
7.1) Mod. CFZ (Fig.7).
Galvanised iron rack - 22x22mm section - supplied in 2 - metre lengths -
capacity over 2000kg (≈20000N). First weld these pieces onto an adequate
iron angle bar and then weld the lot to the gate. Besides maintaining the
distance between the rack and the side of the gate, the angle bar makes it
easy to fix the rack to the gate, even when the latter is subject to slight side
slipping. When join welding the various rack pieces, you are advised to
arrange a section of rack as in (fig.8) to ensure a correct pitch along the
entire length of the rack.
7.2) Mod. CPZ (Fig.7).
Plastic rack - 22x22mm section - supplied in 1- metre lengths - max.
capacity 500kg (≈5000N). This model is to be fixed to the gate by means
of normal or self-threading screws. Also in this case, you are advised to
insert a section of rack the other way round in the joint between the various
pieces, so as to maintain the correct tooth pitch. This type of rack is quieter
and allows height adjustments to be made even after having been fixed,
using the slots provided.
7.3) Mod. CVZ (Fig.7)
Galvanised iron rack - 30x12mm section - supplied in 1 - metre lengths -
threaded spacers to be welded - max. capacity 2000kg (≈20000N). Having
fixed the spacers in the middle of each of the slots in the various rack pieces,
weld the spacers to the gate. Also in this case, arrange a section of rack the
other way round in the joining points of the various rack pieces to ensure
a correct tooth pitch. The screws which fix the rack to the spacers allow the
rack to be adjusted in height.
7.4) Rack fitting
To fit the rack, proceed as follows:
• Activate the emergency release by rotating the appropriate release
knob (See paragraph “Emergency manoeuvre”).
• Rest the rack end on the control pinion and secure it (by welding or using
screws) in correspondence with the pinion, while sliding the gate along
by hand (fig. 9).
• In the case of incorrect gate alignment (excessive side curving) which
cannot be corrected, place a few shims between the rack and gate in
order to ensure continuous centring of the rack with respect to the pinion
(fig. 10).
DANGER - The welding operation is to be carried out by a competent
person who must be provided with all the personal protection
equipment required by the current safety standards.
8) PINION ADJUSTMENT
Having finished fixing the rack, the rack-pinion play needs to be adjusted
to approximately 2mm (fig.6): this is obtained by slackening the four M10
nuts under the gearmotor base by approximately 2mm, and then securing
the four upper nuts. Make sure that the rack and pinion are aligned and
centred (fig.10).
WARNING - Remember that the rack and pinion life strictly depends
on their correct meshing.
9) ELECTROMECHANICAL LIMITING DEVICES
The operation must be carried out with the emergency release activated
and the mains power supply disconnected. The runners which control the
limiting devices are to be positioned at both ends of the rack.
- Push the gate fully open by hand.
- Position the opening end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts the
microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the
correct position, tighten the runner screws.
- Push the gate fully closed by hand.
- Position the closing end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts the
microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the
correct position, tighten the runner screws.
- The runners must lock the gate before this intercepts the mechanical
backstops placed on the track. The closing end-of-stroke runner
adjustment must be made in such a way as to leave a clearance of
approximately 50mm between the gate and the fixed swing leaf, as
prescribed by the current safety standards, otherwise fit an electric edge
at least 50mm thick (fig.12).
10) GATE BACKSTOPS
DANGER - The gate must be provided with mechanical backstops,
both on opening and closing, in order prevent it from coming out of
the upper guide (fig.13); the backstops must be tightly secured to the
ground, a few centimetres beyond the electrical stop point.
11) ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SETUP
Lay out the electrical installation as shown in fig.14 with reference to the CEI
64-8 and IEC364 provisions complying with the HD384 and other national
standards in force for electrical installation.
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable
having a minimum cross section of 3x1.5 mm2and complying with the
current standards. (For example, if the cable is not protected, it must
be at least equal to H07 RN-F, whereas if it is protected it must be at
least equal to H07 VV-F with a 3x1.5 sq mm2cross section).
Connect the control and safety devices in compliance with the previously
mentioned technical installation standards. The cables (mains and auxil-
iary) must be distinctly separated. Fig.14 shows the number of connections
and their cross sections for a length of approximately 100 metres; for
greater lengths, calculate the cross section for the true automation load.
The main automation components are (fig.14):
IType-approved adequately rated omnipolar circuit-breaker with
at least 3-mm contact opening, provided with protection against
overloads and short circuits, suitable for cutting out automation
from the mains. If not already installed, place a type-approved
omnipolar circuit-breaker with a 0.03A threshold just before the
automation system.

12) TERMINAL BOARD CONNECTIONS
First pass the appropriate electric cables through the raceways and fix the
various automation components to the chosen points, then connect them
following the directions and diagrams contained in the control unit instruction
manual.
Carry out phase, neutral and (compulsory) earth connections.
The mains power supply cables must be stripped as little as possible; the
power supply cable earth wire must be stripped for a greater length, in order
to reach the terminal purposely arranged in the box (fig. 15 ref. “A”).
The cables must be tied by additional fastening next to the terminals, by
means of clips for example.
All the operator wiring operations must be carried out by qualified personnel.
Operate the automation only after having connected and checked all the
safety devices.
A description of the terminals of MIZAR control unit installed on the actuator
is given below (fig. 16).

WARNING: If the opening direction is not correct, invert the motor
connections no. 3 and 5 and connections no. 11 and 12 of the opening and
closing limit switches.
13) MOTOR TORQUE SETTING (SAFETY CLUTCH)
WARNING: Check that the impact force value measured at the
points established by the EN 12445 standard is lower than that
specified in the EN 12453 standard.
The setting must be carried out according to whatever is provided for by the
current safety standards. For this purpose, the motor torque needs to be set
in the following way:
• Disconnect the mains power supply.
• Remove the screws securing the gearmotor guard.
• Use the fixed key provided to lock the motor shaft (fig.17 - ref. “A”). Using
the release knob, screw the self-locking nut (fig.17 - ref. “D”) to increase
the torque, or slacken it to decrease the torque.
• Reconnect the power supply and, with the help of a torquemeter, check
that the motion stops at the mechanical resistance values set out by the
current standards.
• Put the protection guard back on the gearmotor and secure it with its
screws.
DANGER - The torque regulator must be calibrated before the
automation system is made to be operational.
14) MANUAL RELEASE
The manual or emergency release is to be activated when a gate must be
opened by hand, and in all cases where the automation system fails to
operate or operates incorrectly. To carry out the emergency manoeuvre,
proceed as follows:
• Insert the standard key into its appropriate seat (fig. 18) and rotate it
anticlockwise (90°), then rotate the release knob clockwise along its
entire stroke. This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows
the gate to be opened by hand.
Warning: Do not push the gate leaf hard, but rather help it along its
entire stroke.
• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its
entire stroke, and then rotate the standard key clockwise until it is held
tight. Keep the key in a safe place which is known to all the people
concerned.
In the case where the release knob is supplied with a personalised key (fig.
18), proceed as follows:
• Insert the personalised key into the lock, rotate the key anticlockwise by
90°.
• Hold the release knob and rotate it clockwise (fig. 18) until it stops.
This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows the gate to be
opened by hand.
• Push the gate leaf by hand, helping it along its entire stroke.
The key cannot be taken out of the lock until the knob is brought back
to its initial position (motor-driven activation).
• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its
entire stroke, move the key back to its locking position; then take the key
out and keep it in a safe place which is known to all the people
concerned.
15) INSTALLATION CHECK
Before the automation device finally becomes operational, scrupulously
check the following conditions:
• Check that all the safety devices (limit microswitches, photocells, elec-
tric edges etc) operate correctly.
• Check that the rack and pinion are correctly meshed (minimum play 2mm).
• Check that the pushing force of the gate is within the limits provided for
by the current standards.
• Check that the opening and closing end-of-stroke runners are correctly
positioned and tightly secured.
• Check the starting and stopping operations using the manual control.
• Check the starting and stopping operations using the remote radio control.
• Check the normal or customised operation logic.
16) AUTOMATION DEVICE USE
Since the automation device can be controlled both remotely and in sight,
by means of a radio control device or a button, all the safety devices must
be frequently checked in order to ensure their perfect efficiency.
WARNING! In the event of any safety device malfunction, request
immediate assistance from qualified personnel.Children must be kept
at a safe distance from the automation operation area.
17) AUTOMATION CONTROL
The use of this control device allows the gate to be opened and closed
automatically. There are different types of controls (manual, radio control,
magnetic card access etc.) depending on the installation requirements and
characteristics.Forthevariouscontrolsystems,seetherelevantinstructions.
The installer undertakes to instruct the user about correct
automation operation, also pointing out the actions to be taken in
case of emergency.
18) MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Before proceeding to any maintenance, disconnect the
mains power supply and, if the battery is fitted, one of its poles.
These are the check and maintenance operations to be carried out:
• Check the condition of lubrication of the metal racks once a year.
• Keep the sliding track always clean and free from debris.
• Occasionally clean the photocell optical elements.
• Have a qualified technician (installer) check the correct torque limit
setting.When any operational malfunction if found, and not resolved,
disconnect the mains power supply and request the assistance of a
qualified technician (installer). When the automation controller is out of
service, you can activate the manual release device (see paragraph on
“Emergency manoeuvre”) in order to set the pinion idling and therefore
allow the gate to be opened and closed by hand.
19) NOISE
The environmental noise produced by the gear-motor in normal operation
conditions is constant and does not exceed 70 dB (A).
21) SCRAPPING
Materials must be disposed of in conformity with the current regulations.
In case of scrapping, the automation devices do not entail any particular
risks or danger. In case of materials to be recycled, these should be sorted
out by type (electrical components, batteries, copper, aluminium, plastic etc.).
20) DISMANTLING
When the automation system is disassembled to be reassembled on
another site, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the power supply and the entire external electrical installation.
• In the case where some of the components cannot be removed or are
damaged, they must be replaced.
21) MALFUNCTION: CAUSES and REMEDIES
21.1) The gate does not open. The motor does not turn.
1) Check that the photocells or the sensitive edges are not dirty, engaged,
or not aligned. Proceed accordingly.
2) Check that the electronic appliance is correctly supplied. Check the

ENGLISH
integrity of the fuses.
3) Check that the functions are correct by means of the control unit
diagnosing LEDs (see relevant instructions).
Identify causes for faults, if any. If the LEDs show persisting start control,
check that no radio controls, start buttons or other control devices keep
the start contact activated (closed).
4) If the control unit does not work, it must be replaced.
If after having carried out the checks listed above the problem persists,
replace the actuator.
21.2) The gate does not open. The motor turns but the movement does
not take place.
1) The manual release is activated. Reset the power-driven operation.
2) Check that the gate had reached the mechanical end-of-stroke stops.
Release and move the gate manually, and reset the power-driven
control. Check and correct the end-of-stroke bracket position.
3) Check that the mechanical setting of the gate is not defective, for
example if the wheels are blocked or the rack is not aligned with the
pinion, etc.
4) Check that the clutch does not slip. If it does, load it as described in the
relevant paragraph.
If after having carried out the checks listed above the problem persists,
replace the actuator.
