other things, to carry out a risk analysis of the machine
(automatic door in its entirety) and take protective
measures to fulfil the essential safety requirements
specified in Annex I of the Machinery Directive.
FAAC S.p.A. recommends that you always comply with
the EN 16005:2012 standard and in particular that
you adopt the criteria and safety devices indicated,
without exception.
This manual also contains general information and
guidelines, which are purely illustrative and not exhau-
stive, in order to facilitate the activities carried out by
the Manufacturer of the Machine in all respects with
regard to carrying out the risk analysis and drafting the
instructions for use and maintenance of the machine. It
should be clearly understood that FAAC S.p.A. accepts
no liability for the reliability and/ or completeness of
the above instructions. As such, the manufacturer of
the machine must carry out all the activities required
by the Machinery Directive and the corresponding
harmonised standards on the basis of the actual
condition of the locations and structures where the
product A951 will be installed, prior to commissioning
the machine.These activities include the analysis of all
the risks associated with the machine and subsequent
implementation of all safety measures intended to
fulfil the essential safety requirements.
This manual contains references to European stan-
dards. The automation of a door must fully comply
with any laws, standards and regulations applicable in
the country where installation will take place.
Unless otherwise specified, the measurements pro-
vided in the instructions are in mm.

correct operation of the automation, the integrity of
the components and be a potential source of danger
(see §Emergency use).
The A951 is not designed to be a security (break-in
protection) system.
Implementing the automation requires the installa-
tion of the necessary safety devices, identified by the
installer through an appropriate risk assessment of
the installation site.
3.3 UNAUTHORISED USE
-Uses other than the intended use are prohibited.
-It is prohibited to install the automation outside
of the limits specified in the Technical Data and
Installation Requirements sections.
-It is prohibited to install the automation on escape
routes.
-It is prohibited to install the automation to create
fire doors.
-It is prohibited to install the automation in en-
vironments in which there is a risk of explosion
and/or fire: the presence of flammable gases or
fumes is a serious safety hazard (the product is not
94/9/EC ATEX certified).
-It is prohibited to power the system with energy
sources other than those specified.
-It is prohibited to integrate commercial systems
and/or equipment other than those specified, or
use them for purposes not intended and authorised
by their respective manufacturers.

3.6 PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
The product is identified by the following rating plate:
3.7 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The A951 must be installed on the architrave.
In order to move the door, one of the following op-
tional arms must be installed:
-Sliding arm (pull) for doors that open inwards, as
seen from the automation side.
-Articulated arm (push) for doors that open out-
wards, as seen from the automation side.
Depending on the distance between the upper edge of
the door and the architrave, each arm can be fastened
directly to the shaft of the A951 or using spacers, to be
ordered separately.
The application limits are indicated in 5and the in-
stallation positions are given in tables 6and 7.
In order to make installation easier, the A951 is
supplied with hole templates for the configurations
described in this manual.
The template indicates the position of the holes for
mounting the door operator and transmission arm,
with or without the optional extensions. It also
shows the electric cable inlet area to the A951.
By turning it over, the A951 can be used to automate
doors with hinges on either the right or left. This
is because the door operator is equipped with a
transmission shaft on each side and because the
programming display automatically adapts itself to
the direction in which it is mounted.
The A951 is a reversible door operator and is therefore
not fitted with a release device.
The A951 can control a lock to mechanically lock the
door in the closed position.
The A951 is equipped with an electronic anti-crushing
system that is activated when an obstacle is detected
during movement: when closing it reverses direction,
when opening it stops for a few seconds and then
continues to open.

4. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
4.1 MECHANICAL REQUIREMENTS
The mechanical structural components must comply
with the requirements of EN 16005.
Before installing the automation, the suitability of the
mechanical requirements must be established, and the
necessary work to reach them performed.
The essential mechanical requirements are as follows:
! Flat, horizontal paving in the area of movement of
the leaf.
The door must be perfectly vertical throughout the
entire length of its stroke with a regular, uniform
movement without friction.
The structure (architraves, doorposts, walls, frame,
hinges and leaves) must be solid and there must be
no risk of detachment or collapse, considering the
weight of the leaf and the forces applied by the door
operator and generated by wind action. Perform
structural calculations where necessary.
The structure must show no signs of corrosion or
cracking.
Appropriate anti-falling devices must be installed to
prevent the leaf from falling.
The hinges must be in good condition, lubricated
and with no play or friction; make sure that the
leaves cannot come off from their hinges and fall (for
example, by being lifted).
There must be external mechanical limit stops to limit
thetravelof the leaf when opening and closing. The
stops must be of an appropriate size and solidly
fastened in order to withstand the impact of the leaf.
The thresholds and protrusions of the paving must be
appropriately shaped in order to prevent the risk of
sliding or slipping.
The leaves must be made of materials that do not
cause a risk of injury to persons if they were to break.
Transparent leaves must be indicated by appropriate
markings or easily visible labels.
Doors for one-way transit must be indicated with
appropriate signs.
No sharp edges or protruding parts should be present
to ensure there are no cutting, hooking or perforation
hazards. Alternatively, eliminate or protect any
sharp edges and protruding parts.
Safety precaution between the wall (or other fixed
element) and the furthest protruding part of the open
leaf to protect against the risk of persons becoming
trapped/crushed. Suitable safety devices must
be installed between the fixed and moving parts to
prevent hands from being crushed. Alternatively,
apply protective elements that prevent fingers from
being introduced.
There must be a safety element between the floor
and lower edge of the leaf, along its entire stroke, to
protectfeet frombecomingcaughtand crushed. Al-
ternatively, apply protective elements preventing the
introduction of feet.
For the minimum dimensions to prevent the crushing
of body parts, refer to standard EN 349.
For the safety distances required to prevent danger
zones being reached, refer to ISO 13857.
4.2 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
F Always shut off the power supply before performing
any work. If the disconnect switch is not in view,
apply a warning sign stating “WARNING - Mainte-
nance in Progress”.
! The electrical system must comply with applicable
legislation in the country of installation.
Use components and materials with a CE marking
that are compliant with the Low Voltage Directive
2014/35/EU and the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
The power supply line for the automation must be
fitted with a 6 A multi-pole circuit breaker with a
contact opening distance of at least 3 mm, with
breaking capacity which meets code.
The power supply for the automation must be fitted
with a 30 mA differential switch.
The metal parts of the structure must be earthed.
Check that the protective earthing system com-
plies with applicable regulations in the country of
installation.
The electrical cables of the automation system must
be of a size and insulation class that is compliant
with current legislation and laid in appropriate rigid
or flexible conduits, either above or below ground.
Use separate conduits for the power supply and the
12-24 V control devices / accessories cables.
Check buried cable plans to ensure that there are no
other electrical cables in proximity to the planned
digging/drilling locations to prevent the risk of
electrocution.
Check that there are no pipes in the vicinity as well.
Protect extension connections using junction boxes
with an IP67 protection rating or higher.
The overall length of the BUS cables must not exceed
100 m.
The control accessories must be positioned in a
location that is not hazardous to the user and that is
also accessible with the leaf open.
It is recommended to position the control accessories
within the field of view of the automation. If an

emergency stop button has been installed, it must be
EN13850 compliant.
Comply with the following heights from the ground:
- control accessories = minimum 150 cm
- emergency button = maximum 120 cm
If the manual controls are intended to be used by
disabled or infirm persons, highlight them with
suitable pictograms and make sure that these users
are able to access them.
4.3 PROTECTION AGAINST DOOR
MOVEMENT HAZARDS
Swing type pedestrian doors fall within the scope
of the type “C” harmonised European Standard, EN
16005. It is assumed that automation manufactured
in accordance with this standard also comply with
the essential safety requirements of the Directive
2006/42/EC.
This however does not exempt the manufacturer
from carrying out a risk analysis in order to implement
appropriate measures for those risks that are not
covered by the standard or by the manufacturers of
the components.
As a guideline only, in order to protect against risks
related to moving parts, the standard EN 16005
requires that:
-The opening and closing movement must take
place in“low energy”mode, which means that the
kinetic energy of the leaf must not exceed 1.69
joules and the maximum static force must not
exceed 67 N.
-Alternatively, for doors that open onto heavy traffic
areas or when any contact with the user is unac-
ceptable because many of the users are elderly, sick,
disabled or children, additional protective devices
are to be used.
Among the possible solutions provided, the instal-
lation of ESPE equipment is recommended, which
complies with EN 12978 CAT.2 (according to EN 954-1
and / or EN 13849), to monitor the full width of the leaf
in both directions of movement.
