PRODUCT PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION
This product is intended to only be installed by a qualified professional technician. The warranty on the
equip ent ay be voided if not properly installed. Warranty clai s should be directed to the co pany or
entity that sold the equip ent. Purchasing non-installed equip ent ay later hinder any warranty clai
because of conflict between the equip ent provider and the installer entity. It is highly reco ended for the
syste to be supplied and installed by a single entity.
SOLAR POWERED SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
The ECOSOL solar powered syste is intended for residential applications and light co ercial gate
operation with li ited cycles per day. While our syste can operate over 300 cycles and/or provide over 2
weeks of standby ti e on fully charged batteries, it needs enough standby ti e to fully recharge the
batteries or it will eventually run out of charge to operate the syste . We highly reco end to keep the
syste as si ple as possible and avoid adding accessories that draw current fro the batteries. The ECOSOL
interface board anages energy consu ption and powers down all co ponents, accessories and peripherals
that are not required to operate while the gate is fully closed or after 5 inutes of inactivity. For opti u
perfor ance, we reco end the following setup:
●One or two actuators (Phobos BT or Igea BT) connected to the ECOSOL syste .
●Two sets of photo-bea obstruction sensors.
●BFT radio trans itters and/or wireless keypads progra ed to the ECOSOL's built-in low consu ption
receiver.
●Auto atic closing ti er enabled.
Anyti e, additional accessories are added, it is suggested to increase the syste s charging capacity by
adding a solar panel. See page 15 for further infor ation.
EXISTING GATE CONDITION
Auto ation should be installed on a gate which is oving freely. Any issue with the s ooth opening or
closing of a gate will not be corrected by adding auto ation.
