1. Introduction
INTRODUCTIONSECTION 1
ATTENTION!
To ensure the safety of people and possessions, it is important that
you read all of the following instructions.
Incorrect installation or incorrect use of the product could cause
serious harm to people.
The installer, being either professional or DIY, is the last person on
the site who can ensure that the operator is safely installed and that
the whole system can be operated safely.
Warnings for the Installer
CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS before installing the
product.
• All installation, repair, and service work to this product must be carried out by a
suitably qualied person
• Do not activate your barrier unless you can see it and can determine that its area of
travel is clear of people, pets, or other obstructions
• NO ONE MAY CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING BARRIER. Always keep people and
objects away from the barrier and its area of travel
• NEVER LET CHILDREN OPERATE OR PLAY WITH THE BARRIER CONTROLS
• Secure all easily-accessed barrier controls in order to prevent unauthorised use of the
barrier
• Do not in any way modify the components of the automated system
• Do not install the equipment in an explosive atmosphere: the presence of ammable
gasses or fumes is a serious danger to safety
• Before attempting any work on the system, cut electrical power to the operator and
disconnect the batteries
• Always ensure that the boom pole is in the raised position before disconnecting AC
and DC power to the Trac barrier to prevent damage to the controller
• The mains power supply of the automated system must be tted with an all-pole
switch with contact opening distance of 3mm or greater. Use of a 5A thermal breaker
with all-pole circuit break is recommended
• Make sure that an earth leakage circuit breaker with a threshold of 30mA is tted
upstream of the system
• Never short-circuit the battery and do not try to recharge the batteries with power
supply units other than that supplied with the product, or manufactured by Centurion
Systems (Pty) Ltd
• Make sure that the earthing system is correctly constructed, and that all metal parts
of the system are suitably earthed

page 5 www.centsys.com
INTRODUCTIONSECTION 1
• Safety devices must be tted to the installation to guard against mechanical
movement risks, such as crushing, dragging and shearing
• It is recommended that at least one warning indicator light be tted to every system
• Always t the warning signs visibly to the inside and outside of the barrier
• The installer must explain and demonstrate the manual operation of the barrier in
case of an emergency, and must hand over the user guide to the user
• Explain these safety instructions to all persons authorised to use this barrier, and be
sure that they understand the hazards associated with trac barriers
• Do not leave packing materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) within reach of children as
such materials are potential sources of danger
• Dispose of all waste products like packing materials, worn-out batteries, etc.
according to local regulations
• Always check the obstruction detection system and safety devices for correct
operation
• Neither Centurion Systems (Pty) Ltd, nor its subsidiaries, accepts any liability caused
by improper use of the product, or for use other than that for which the automated
system was intended
• This product was designed and built strictly for the use indicated in this
documentation. Any other use, not expressly indicated here, could compromise the
service life/operation of the product and/or be a source of danger
• Anything that has not been specied in these instructions may be considered a risk
to your safety, and the safety of others. If you are unsure of an installation matter,
please contact your nearest distributor
