SAFETY SYMBOL AND SIGNAL WORD REVIEW

WARNING: Important safety instrucons. It is important for the

safety of persons to follow all instrucons. SAVE these instrucons.

THESE ARE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AS INCORRECT

INSTALLATION CAN LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH

Keep commercial door balanced. Scking or binding doors must be

repaired. Commercial doors, door springs, pulleys, brackets and

their hardware are under extreme tension and can cause serious

personal injury. Do not aempt to loosen, move or adjust them. Call

for commercial door service.

Disengage all exisng commercial door locks to avoid damage to commercial door.

Install the wall control (or any addional push buons) in a locaon where the

commercial door is visible during operaon . Do not allow children to operate push

buon(s) or remote control(s). Serious personal injury from a closing commercial door

may result from misuse of the opener.

Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or

servicing a commercial door opener.

Permanently fasten all supplied labels adjacent to the wall control as a convenient

reference and reminder of safe operang procedures.

To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all

ropes connected to the commercial door before installing the door

opener.

Acvate opener only when the door is in full view, free of obstrucons and opener is

properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the building while the door is in

moon.

Installaon and wiring must be in compliance with your local

building and electrical codes. Connect the power supply cord only to

properly earthed mains.

An electrician must disconnect electric power to the commercial door opener before

making repairs or removing covers.

Moisture and water can destroy the electronic components. Make

sure under all circumstances that water moisture or storage

moisture cannot penetrate the electronics. The same applies for

openings and cable entries.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service

agent or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a hazard

A disconnecon device incorporated in the xed wiring must be provided in

accordance with the wiring rules of the country in which it is installed.

Aer the installaon a nal test of the full funcon of the system

and the full funcon of the safety devices must be done.

The actuang member of a biased-o switch is to be located within direct sight of the

door but away from moving parts. Unless it is key operated, it is to be installed at a

minimum height of 1500mm and not accessible to the public.

When operang a biased-o switch, make sure that other persons

are kept away.

Make sure that people who install, maintain or operate the door follow these

instrucons. Keep these instrucons in a safe place so that you can refer to them

quickly when you need to.

The opener cannot be used with a driven part incorporang a

wicket door (unless the opener cannot be operated with the wicket

door open).

If the opener is installed at a height less than 2.5 metres from oor level or any other

level from which the unit can be accessed (eg mezzanine) the installer is responsible

to t guards to the opener to prevent access to the chain drive.

Ensure that entrapment between the driven part and the

surrounding xed parts due to the opening movement of the driven

part is avoided

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilies, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

they have been given supervision or instrucon concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance.

Motor may become hot during operaon. Appropriate clearance

and/or shielding should be supplied by the installer to ensure any

cabling, wiring and/or other items cannot come in contact with the

motor. If temperature rise exceeds 50⁰C all xed wiring insulaon

must be protected, for example, by insulang sleeving having an

appropriate temperature rang.

Use the commercial door opener for its intended purpose. eDrive +2.0 openers are

designed for operang spring balanced roller shuers, spring balanced roller doors

and counterweighted bi-fold and vercal li doors.

Congratulaons on your purchase of the Grifco™ Fire Shuer opener unit. For more than 50 years, we have been

producing industrial mechanical openers that are well known for their proven reliability & robust design.

The Grifco Controlled Descent Mechanism has been developed to allow the safe emergency closing of re shuers. The system

allows ecient operaon of the shuer during normal circumstances. If a re is detected the linkage connected to the system's

release arm will break, the shuer will then automacally descend to the ground under its own weight. The shuer lowers

safely since its speed is limited by the controlled descent mechanism. This system eliminates the danger associated with a free-

falling shuer.

IMPORTANT:

The 58017FFR-480 and 59017FFL-480 must use the GLMe2N-480 (or GLMe2N-480-MCB) as a controller.

The standard Reversing Starter is NOT compable with the 480V variaon opener.

INTRODUCTION

IDENTIFYING YOUR OPENER

WARNING

Please remove any locks ed to the door before

operaon in order to prevent damage to the door.

WARNING

It is important to make sure the door always runs

smoothly. Doors which sck or jam must be repaired

immediately. Employ a qualied technician to repair the

door, never aempt to repair it yourself.

PLANNING

Idenfy the type and dimensions of your commercial door. A survey of the applicaon is recommended to see if any of the

requirements below are not applicable with your installaon.

Based on “standard shuer”:

 The shuer is correctly spring balanced

 The shuer has ≤ 1.0mm x ≥ 100mm slats

 The shuer has no wind-locks

 A ≥4:1 sprocket rao is used

If any condions above are not met, some consideraon should be given to increasing the sprocket rao, or opener size. The

opener should be installed on the correct side of the commercial door. Consider an In-board mounng kit

(P.No IBMK) if there is insucient side room. Select the side that meets the requirements listed below.

 Must have minimum distance of 15mm between mounng plate and door drum sprocket

 Must have minimum distance of 200mm between limit housing and imposing structure

 Must have minimum clearance of 200mm from the terminal box

 Before installing the opener, check that the commercial door is in good mechanical condion, correctly balanced and open

& closes properly.

BOTTOM RAIL WEIGHT AND/OR REVERSE SPRINGING

To provide the shuer with a greater inial closing force, parcularly when fully open, the boom rail should be made heavier.

This can be achieved by aaching approximately 5kg of steel at bar to the upper side of the boom rail. An alternave or

addional method to ensure the shuer will descend when released is to slightly reverse spring the shuer at its fully open

posion. This will give the shuer a bias towards closing when it is in its fully open posion.

NOTE: The shuer must have radial ball or roller bearings on the shuer axle.

THE RELEASE ARM

The release arm may point in one of the six

direcons allowed by the six bolts on the

plate upon which it is mounted. This is to

allow the fusible linkage to be aached in

the arrangement most convenient to you.

To change the direcon of the arm, remove

the bolt that aaches the boom end of the

arm to the u-bracket. Tilt the arm about the

u-bracket that is connected to the output

sha this will allow access to the boom u-

bracket. The xed u-bracket may be

removed using a spanner on its outside.

Remove the bolt from the plate in the

posion that you wish to t the u-bracket,

screw the u-bracket into this hole. Fit the

spare bolt to the hole where the u-bracket

was. Ret the arm into the u-bracket using

the nut, bolt and washers that were

previously removed.

CAUTION

The roller shuer guides must be ed with mechanical stops that prevent the boom rail from passing through in the opening

direcon. The opener should stall if driving into the mechanical stops.

INSTALLATION

Mounng the Unit

The Fire Shuer is typically ag mounted below the door drum so that the opener sha points toward the door opening and lies

beneath the sprocket of the door drum. For mounng you will need to either secure the opener to the roller shuer head plate

with prepared holes or slots, or use a mounng plate that will need xing via a wall angle or similar exisng xture.

Note: THE FIRE SHUTTER IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE INSTALLED UPSIDE DOWN.

THE CHAIN GUIDE MUST NOT BE REPOSITIONED.

When assessing and selecng an appropriate mounng locaon, the following consideraons should be made:

The unit must be mounted accurately so that the drive sprocket lines up with the shuer platewheel. There is only a small

allowance for adjustment of the drive sprocket posion on the output sha. Fit the correct length of drive chain around the drive

sprocket and platewheel.

INSTALLATION

Mounng plate slots allow the chain tension to

be adjusted through vercal movement of the

opener (see Le)

Mounng the Unit (connued)

Side room to imposing structures (see right)

Note: The Fire Shuer limit housing requires

adequate clearance to allow seng of limit cams

during installaon. 150mm is the minimum

recommended clearance between wall and lid.

Where there is insucient side room, consider using

the opposite hand opener and mount inboard with a

Grifco™ Inboard Mounng Kit, Part No. IBMK.

Ensure the mounng posion allows the hand chain to

hang free of obstrucons (see right)

Ensure hand chain is not twisted when making the

join!

150mm Minimum

The drive sprocket must be aligned with the door

sprocket, and locked using 2 x M8 hi-tensile grub

screws ghtened to min 20Nm. Grub screws must be

set between 90˚ and 120˚ apart, with one grub screw

lying over the drive key.

Chain tension should be set between 10-20kgs, ensuring

both sides of the linkage are taught. Where praccable, use

the weight of the opener as a preload, then ghten

mounng bolts. M12 fasteners should be ghtened

between 80-90Nm.

INSTALLATION

Automac Chain Engagement Mechanism (ACEM)

The patented ACEM features allows the use of the hand chain in the event of a power failure. Simply pull on the

hand chain in either direcon to operate the door manually.

Warning! Ensure power is isolated when using this feature.

The ACEM label (see right) must be xed in close proximity to the controller e.g. on the door track.

CAUTION

The Fire Shuer Opener must:

 be connected via a device that is capable of being locked for maintenance

 be connected via a suitable circuit breaker that disconnects all live conductors

 be connected in accordance with the wiring rules of the country in which it is installed

 not have control enclosures le open for extended periods (excess dust will void warranty)

 Run all cable through non-exible conduit and use appropriate conduit entries

CAUTION

When Securing the Fire Shuer Opener with the 4 x M12 x 40mm long fasteners (based on a 10mm mounng plate) and spring

washers provided, it is crical to ensure that the applied torque is between 80-90Nm. When mounng through thicker secons,

ensure a minimum of 30mm of screw thread is engaged with the female thread. Use of incorrect fasteners or torque may cause

serious product damage and/or personal injury. When xing through a sloed plate, ensure that the slots are no wider than

13mm as a spring washer may not be adequate in outside diameter to support the hexagon head.

The limit switches are connected to the control gear being used via the NORMALLY CLOSED (N/C) and COMMON (COM) of the

microswitch:

Limit seng procedure

 ISOLATE MAINS BEFORE SETTING LIMITS

 AVOID CRAMMING WIRES INTO LIMIT ENCLOSURE AS IT MAY AFFECT CAM MOVEMENT

Follow the steps below:

1. Manually posion the door in the centre of the opening.

2. Posion one cam to depress a switch and the other so that it is well clear of the switch (note which switch it is that you have

depressed).

For controls with up and down funcons:

 Supply power and acvate control in the upward direcon.

 If the door travels up, then the limit switch which is engaged by the cam is the CLOSED limit.

 If the door doesn't move it is at the OPEN limit.

 Connue to Step 3 below

For single buon controls:

 Supply power and push the buon.

 If the door travels up, then the limit switch which is engaged by the cam is the CLOSED limit.

 If the door travels down, then the limit switch which is engaged by the cam is the OPEN limit.

 Connue to Step 3 below

3. Isolate power and adjust the limit cams to depress the switches when the shuer reaches its OPEN and CLOSED posions.

4. Supply power and cycles the door between the OPEN and CLOSED posions. Adjust cam posion if necessary.

Fire Shuer Mechanism

RELEASE ARM DISENGAGED POSITION

When the release arm has no fusible linkage connected, the spring inside the mechanism will force the arm into its

disengaged posion. In this posion the output sha is disengaged from the drive sprocket and engaged with the yweight

sha. This is the posion of the arm for controlled descent of the shuer without electrical power.

RELEASE ARM "WAITING TO ENGAGE"

The release arm may only be fully engaged on half of the output sha rotaon. For the other half of its rotaon the arm will

be held out at a slight angle to the plate. This will be called "waing to engage". When the release arm is waing to engage,

operang it manually or electrically will cause it to automacally engage.

RELEASE ARM ENGAGED POSITION

In this posion the output sha is engaged with the sprocket and disengaged from the yweight sha. This is the posion for

normal electrical or manual operaon of the shuer. To engage the arm, a spring assisted fusible linkage is used. In the

engaged posion the release arm is parallel to the mounng plate.

SETUP AND ADJUSTMENT

Fire Shuer Mechanism

RELEASE ARM FUSIBLE LINKAGE TYPES

There are three basic forms of fusible linkages, heat, voltage, and heat and voltage. These systems may be connected in

series with a cable.

FUSIBLE LINKAGE CONNECTION

The fusible linkage should be connected in series with a spring so that it engages the release arm. The end of the linkage not

connected to the release arm should be fastened to a secure xed point. The linkage must be arranged so that the force

provided to engage the release arm is in a direcon close to parallel to the axis of the output sha.

RELEASE ARM SPRING TENSION

When the release arm is in the engaged posion, the spring should be stretched to be at least 250mm in length.

ADJUSTING THE CONTROLLED DESCENT SPEED

The speed at which the shuer falls during controlled descent can be adjusted by moving the governor yweights. If the

yweights are at their outermost points on their shas, descent speed will be at its lowest. If they are on their innermost

points the descent speed will be at its highest. To move the yweights, loosen their grub screws with an allen key and slide

them into the desired posion on their shas. Tighten the grub screws with the allen key.

SETUP AND ADJUSTMENT

To test the system, engage the release arm and li the shuer 500mm with the hand chain. Then disengage the release arm.

The shuer should fall steadily to the ground.

TESTING

OPERATION

If the operator is ed to the shuer and has a spring assisted fusible link causing the release arm to engage or be waing to

engage, it is ready for operaon. The shuer may now be operated manually or electrically.

If the fusible link breaks due to re or re alarm signal, the shuer will undergo controlled descent to the ground. The release

arm is now disengaged.

To operate the shuer aer controlled descent, the release arm must be re-engaged with a new fusible link.

MAINTENANCE

Tesng

The controlled descent device should be tested every six months in most installaons. In corrosive or dusty environments, the

device should be tested more oen.

Fricon Disc

Of the operator's moving parts, the only one that could possibly wear is the fricon disc. The disc is located on the governor.

The disc is 6mm (1/4²) thick. If the disc wears so that it is less than 3mm in thickness, it will need to be replaced. (This type of

wear should not occur during the lifeme of the product.) To replace the disc, remove the selok pin that xes the governor-

hinging device to the sha. When the pin is removed, the hinging device and the fricon plate may be removed allowing

replacement of the fricon disc.

Monthly

 Check chain alignment and tension. Adjust if required

 Check PE / IR beam/s and bump edge funconality where applicable

Quarterly

 Check ghtness of xing bolts and (sprocket) grub screws. Adjust if required * refer page 6

 Check correct electrical operaon

 Check manual operaon via hand chain

 Lubricate the drive chain

 Lubricate yweight linkages and the sliding pin when it is extended from the output sha

 Ancorrosion spray should be applied to all components to prevent them from deteriorang

 Check door balance. Adjust if required

 Conduct door maintenance in accordance with door manufactures guidelines. This will include door balance

SERVICE MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN

CAUTION

DO NOT allow ancorrosion spray, grease or any other lubricang product come into contact with the fricon

disc or fricon plates!
