D5-Evo overview
The D5-Evo DOMESTIC is driven by a high torque 12V DC motor which can eortlessly
shift gates weighing up to 500kg – perfect for domestic use. The gearbox moulded from a
high-tech engineering polymer not only looks good, but is corrosion-free and guarantees
that even if you live on the coast, your D5-Evo DOMESTIC will just keep on going. For
your security, the internal gearset has a self-locking action so forced entry is no longer an
option for would-be burglars. An optional theft-resistant cage makes intruders’ lives even
more dicult. For your safety, our revolutionary limit switch mechanism monitors the
speed and location of your gate for accurate position control and sensitive anti-crushing
protection.
The D5-Evo DOMESTIC is packed with features and functions, all easily accessible from
a user-friendly LCD controller. Multiple Modes of Operation, alarm functions, an onboard
multichannel receiver, ChronoGuard full seven day timer – you name it, the D5-Evo
DOMESTIC’s got it. The integral 12V 5Ah battery (charged by an internal 220V charger)
comes with full battery back-up and advanced lightning protection so you can always get
in – even when the power is out. It is important to note that the battery is the primary
power source of the D5-Evo DOMESTIC.
You can increase the capacity of the battery with an externally mounted battery to give
longer power failure autonomy.
Instead of the 220V charger, you can have a low voltage charger mounted inside the
D5-Evo DOMESTIC with a plug-in transformer plugged into the nearest plug point inside
the house / building. This saves having to run an electrically compliant 220V supply to
the D5-Evo DOMESTIC.
Finally you can use a solar panel to charge the battery. See section 6.2 (Solar power
supply), for more details about solar charging).
D10 Turbo Overview
The D10 Turbo is perfectly suited for sites with lighter gates requiring a high number
of operations per day and very fast opening and closing speeds, and can operate at
almost double the speed of the standard D10. However, it is not recommended for gates
weighing more than 240kg, as the inertia generated by heavier loads might prove
detrimental to the gearbox at such high speeds.
The gearbox of the D10 Turbo utilises a “true” or “full involute” gear instead of a helical
gear, which means that there is a larger contact area with the worm shaft, ensuring much
greater load bearing capabilities. The standard D10 uses a 34 tooth internal gear and 17
tooth output pinion, whereas the D10 Turbo uses a 22 tooth internal gear and a 20
tooth output pinion.
As with the D5-Evo, the D10/D10 Turbo controller with an LCD interface is a cinch to
set up and it oers an equally impressive list of useful features including CENTURION’s
world rst ChronoGuard timer technology. Of course accurate position control, sensitive
anti-crushing and precision stopping power come standard.
