AUTOMATIC DOOR A100 COMPACT
1 DESCRIPTION
The FAAC series A100 COMPACT systems automatically activate,
manage and control the operation of single-leaf or two-leaf
sliding doors.
The FAAC series A100 COMPACT automated systems are supplied
completely assembled, wired and tested in the configuration
requested by the customer, using the appropriate order form, or
in kits to be assembled by the installation technician.
An automation cross beam (fig.1) consists of the following
parts:
Support profile (fig.1 ref.)
This is the profile used when the cross beam can be completely
secured to a load bearing structure.
Motor unit (fig. 1 ref.)
The DC motor has an encoder and a leaf locking system
(accessory).
Control unit (fig. 1 ref. )
When powered, the control unit with microprocessor, initialises
the door’s operational parameters.
Power feed unit (fig. 1 ref. )
The power feed unit, directly connected to the control unit,
supplies the voltage values required to correctly power the
automated system.
Leaf support carriages (fig.1 ref.)
The carriages have two wheels with ball bearings, one counter
thrust wheel in the top part, and a screw based system for
adjusting the height of the leaves.
Drive belt (fig. 1 ref. )
Transmission pulley unit (fig. 1 ref. )
1.1 ACCESSORIES SUPPLIED WITH THE CROSS BEAM
These parts are assembled on the cross beam.
Closing housings (fig. 1 ref. )
This is the aluminium profile enabling closure of the automated
system. The side panels (fig.1 ref.) completely close the
system.
Motor lock unit (fig. 1 ref. )
The motor lock unit guarantees mechanical locking of the door
while the leaves are closed. The motor lock unit can be used for
single and double leaves.
The motor lock unit is supplied with the internal release device
(Fig.1 ref.) used for emergency opening if needed. It is also
designed for installation of the external release (optional) if
required. The motor lock unit acts directly on the motor, locking
it mechanically.
Supervision of motor lock
It controls if the motor lock unit is operating correctly and verifies
if the door is actually closed. If necessary, the system is designed
for remotely activating an indicator light or buzzer/siren.
Emergency battery (fig. 1 ref. )
In the event of a mains power cut, the battery kit enables the
automated system to operate until its charge is exhausted. The
battery condition test is performed continuously by the control
unit.

1A PREPARING THE SUPPORT PROFILE
The support profile is used to secure the automated system to a
load bearing structure in metal or masonry , free of any significant
deformation.
Position the cross beam on the floor, withdraw the ‘parachute’
cables from the housing (Fig. 26 ref.), and remove the housing.
If necessary, remove from the profile also those components (e.g.
motor, carriages, transmission pulley) which could hamper you
while securing to the wall, loosening the nuts from the plates.
To then position the removed parts, refer to figures 5-6-7.
A. INSTALLATION OF ASSEMBLED AUTOMATED SYSTEM
1.1A SUPPORT PROFILE - SECURING ON WALL
Define the exact height position of the support profile, considering
the dimensions of fig.3 and - for doors with glass leaves - in
fig.4.
The cross beam must be fastened parallel to the
floor.
Initially fix the support profile on a vertical slot at one end, and on a
horizontal slot at the other end (using M8 screws and appropriate
expansion plugs which are not supplied) and level parallel to the
floor. Fasten centrally, lifting the support profile with force to align
the three securing points. Carry out the remaining fastenings.
2A PREPARING THE LEAVES
Prepare the leaves as described below.
1. Secure to the leaf, the leaf fitting profile cut to the same
length, and secure it with adequate screws on the upper
part (fig. 9).
2. Position two carriages on each leaf, using the supplied plates
and screws as shown in Fig. 10.
3. Secure the carriages on the leaf, using the dimensions in
figure 7 for the double leaf, and fig. 5-6 for the single leaf.
Tighten the carriage securing screws.
4. Cut the lower guide profile to the same length as the leaf and
secure with adequate screws on the lower part (fig.11).
5. If specified, insert the brush in the seat of the sliding profile
Fig. 11 ref. .

ENGLISH
The carriages allow leaf height adjustment of ± 7.5 mm.
Adjustment procedure:
• Slightly loosen the two cylinder head screws - fig.15 ref..
• Turn the screw (fig.16) clockwise to raise the leaves or anti-clockwise
to lower them.
• Tighten the two cylinder head screws you had loosened
4.1A LEAF HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
4A ADJUSTING THE LEAVES
When you have prepared the leaves, install them on the support
profile.
The carriages have two sliding wheels (Fig.15 ref. ) and a
counter-thrust wheel (Fig.15 ref. )
Two slots are provided on the base of the carriages. These slots
enable leaf depth adjustment (Fig.15 ref. )
4.2A LEAF DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the depth of the leaves, loosen the screws as shown in
Fig. 17.
Move the leaf on the carriage slot as you require and tighten the
screws.
Make sure that the leaves are parallel with respect
to the support profile.
3A INSTALLING THE LOWER SLIDING BLOCKS
The lower sliding blocks are designed for securing to a wall (or
fixed leaf) or to the floor.
Assemble the sliding blocks, referring to the dimensions in figures
12 and 13.
On-wall securing (or on fixed leaf):
• Secure the sliding blocks as shown in Fig. 14 ref., using
adequate screws.

ENGLISH
4.3A ADJUSTING THE COUNTER-THRUST WHEEL
The carriages have a counter-thrust wheel which prevents them
from coming out of their seat.
The wheel must be adjusted so that it does not press on
the support profile, to thus avoid increased friction.
Counter-thrust wheel adjustment procedure:
• Loosen the two cylindrical screws (Fig.18 ref.).
• Adjust the height of the wheel support, making it come as
close as possible to the main profile without touching it (Fig.18
ref.).
• When you have adjusted the wheel’s height, tighten the two
cylindrical screws (Fig. 18 ref. ).
If necessary, use a shim of about 0.5 mm, placing it between the
wheel and the main profile, removing it when you have finished
the adjustment.
Move the leaves by hand and check if the counter-thrust wheel
is free to move without grazing.
6 REGOLAZIONE ARRESTI MECCANICI5A ADJUSTING THE OPENING MECHANICAL STOPS
The automatic door is supplied with the opening mechanical
stops installed on the support profile. As the leaves open, make
sure that the carriages come into contact with the mechanical
stops. If adjustments are required, proceed as follow:
• Loosen the securing screws of the mechanical stops (Fig. 19
ref. ) and take them to the ends of the support profile.
• Take the leaf or leaves into opening position (fig. 20), take
the mechanical stop near to the carriage until the two parts
touch and tighten the lock nut (Fig.20 ref. ).

6A ADJUSTING THE CLOSING MECHANICAL STOPS
(DOUBLE LEAF)
The automatic door is supplied with the closing mechanical stops
installed on the mid-point of the support profile. If the door centre
requires adjustment, proceed as follows:
• Check if the mechanical stops are at the centre of the
profile.
• Take the leaf or leaves into the closing position.
• Loosen the securing screws of the carriages (Fig.21 ref.).
• Take the carriage close to the contact point until the two
touch.
• Re-tighten the carriage securing screws.
6.1A ADJUSTING THE CLOSING MECHANICAL STOPS (SINGLE
LEAF)
The automatic door is supplied with the closing mechanical
stops installed on the support profile. As the leaves close, make
sure that the carriages come into contact with the mechanical
stops. If adjustments are necessary, proceed as indicated for the
opening mechanical stops (chap 5A).

ENGLISH
7A ADJUSTING THE BELT FASTENING ON CARRIAGES
The automated system is supplied with the belt fastened to the
carriages by the fastening fittings (Fig. 22 ref. ) It is usually
unnecessary to modify this fastening, but, if it is necessary to
adjust finely, proceed as follows:
• Take the automated system into closing position.
• Turn the two pairs of screws (Fig. 22 ref. and ) of each
carriage to obtain the required adjustment.
• Tighten the screws (Fig. 22 ref. and ) .
• Check if the closing contact point between the two leaves
corresponds to the support profile mid-point and if the leaves
are able to open and close completely.

• Loosen the nut (Fig. 23 ref. ).
• Turn the screw and bolt (Fig. 23 ref. ) to tighten or loosen
the belt.
• After controlling tension, tighten the nut (Fig. 23 ref. )
Check if the parachute cables are present, and, if necessary,
secure them on the two ends of the support profile, housing the
bigger end of the cable in the seats (Fig. 24 ref. ).
Check if the three anti-vibration spacers (Fig. 24 ref. ) are
present, and, if necessary, insert them on the outer edge of the
support profile, positioning them at the ends and centrally (for
profiles of over 3 meters).
9A INSTALLING THE PARACHUTE AND THE SPACERS
10A INSTALLING THE SIDE PANELS
Fit the side panels as shown in Fig. 25. ref.. The figure shows the
installation of the right hand side panel - proceed in the same
way for the left panel.
If you do not wish to install the side panels, install 3 brackets to
secure the housings - two at the sides and one in the centre (for
profiles of over 3 meters) as shown in Fig. 25 ref. .
