GFA SI 55.20 FU-4000 Elektromat Safedrive
General safety information
-
Specified use
The drive unit is intended for vertically moving doors. The force is transmitted using a chain. Doors that must be secured against dropping require a separate safety brake. The drive unit must be protected against moisture and aggressive environmental conditions (such as corrosive substances). The drive units are only suitable for indoor use. Appropriate protective measures must be taken for outdoor installation. The drive unit is not intended for hazardous areas. The values specified in the technical data of the drive unit must not be exceeded. The safe operation can only be ensured if used as specified. -
Target audience of these installation instructions
These installation instructions are geared towards qualified persons trained in the handling of door systems. Expert knowledge, relevant skills and practical experience are what set apart qualified persons. They are capable of safely carrying out the tasks involving installation, maintenance and modernisation according to the instructions. -
Safe operation
The safe operation of the product can only be ensured if it is used as specified. Follow the installation instructions. Observe all specifications, especially warnings, when installing the product in the overall system. GfA is not liable for damage resulting from non-observance of the installation instructions. The resulting overall system must be reassessed for its safety in accordance with applicable standards and directives (e.g. CE marking). These installation instructions refer only to a part of the overall system and are not sufficient as the sole instructions for the overall system. The installer of the system must prepare the instructions for the overall system. We recommend entering the danger area of the system only when the drive unit is at a standstill. -
Warning – Failure to follow these installation instructions may result in severe injury or death.
- Please read these instructions before using the product.
- Keep these instructions handy.
- Include these instructions when passing on the product to third parties.
-
Warning – Danger from improper use of the product!
Do not let children operate the product unsupervised or use as a toy. -
Warning – Danger to life from incorrect installation!
Work carried out improperly may result in death or severe injury from electrical current or falling parts.- Allow only competent people to carry out the work.
- Disconnect all cables from the power supply.
- Observe valid regulations and standards.
- Use suitable tools.
-
Warning! Danger to life from falling objects if the drive unit is subjected to impermissible forces.
Inadmissible forces (examples: collision with a forklift, dropping the drive unit, tearing or pulling on the motor) lead to damage to the drive unit. There is a risk of severe injury or death from falling objects.- Prevent impermissible forces from acting on the drive unit,
- Check the drive unit for damage if impermissible forces have acted on it. Look even for minor damage. Lock the door during the inspection.
- Contact the service department if you have difficulty assessing the damage.

Integrated safety brake
A safety brake is integrated into the gearbox of this ELEKTROMATEN. The safety brake protects against the door dropping due to breakage or wear of the gear teeth. The safety brake works regardless of the mounting position, speed and rotating direction. It is maintenance-free. The specification of the locking torque and the approval number of the safety brake are available in the technical data of these instructions.
Warning – Danger of the door dropping!
If you need to apply more than the permissible force of 390N (according to DIN
EN 12604/DIN EN 12453) to move the door by emergency manual operation, this
indicates a stalling on the drive unit or door. Releasing the stalling may
cause the door to drop.
- Adopt a secure position.
- For drive units with brake, the emergency manual operation must be carried out against the closed brake.
Mechanical installation
Prerequisites
The permissible loads on walls, fastenings, mountings and transmission
elements must not be exceeded, even for maximum holding torques or locking
torques (▶ refer to technical data).
Connection elements
Permissible mounting positions
Transmission elements
Mounting
Four holes are provided for mounting.
Installation
The descriptions below apply to general door specifications. The specifications of the door manufacturer must also be observed during installation.
Warning – Potential injury or danger to life!
- During installation, be sure to use a lifting device that has a sufficient load-carrying capacity.
- Thoroughly grease the output-shaft.
- Mount the keys.
- Attach the drive unit.
- Tighten all connection elements (M12) to 75 Nm. Install all other connection elements according to the specifications of the door manufacturer.).
Electrical installation
Warning – Danger to life from electric current!
- Switch the mains OFF and check that the cables are de-energized
- Observe the applicable regulations and standards
- Make a proper electrical connection
- Use suitable tools
Performing electrical installation
Completing the electrical installation
Mount the cable entries and/or cable glands.
Limit switch setting
The setting of the final limit positions OPEN and CLOSE is described in the instructions for the door control.
The door control must meet Performance Level c!
Use only door controls that evaluate the limit switch according to EN 12543
and meet Performance Level c.
Motor connection
Limit switch connection
Emergency manual operation (rapid hand chain operator)
Emergency manual operation is designed for opening or closing the door without power supply. Its activation interrupts the control voltage. Electrical operation is no longer possible.
-
Warning – Injuries due to incorrect operation!
- Switch off voltage.
- Adopt a secure position.
- For drive units with brake, the emergency manual operation must be carried out against the closed brake.
-
Warning – Danger of the door dropping!
If you need to apply more than the permissible force of 390N (according to DIN EN 12604/DIN EN 12453) to move the door by emergency manual operation, this indicates a stalling on the drive unit or door. Releasing the stalling may cause the door to drop.- Adopt a secure position.
- For drive units with brake, the emergency manual operation must be carried out against the closed brake.
-
Caution – Damage to components!
Do not move the door beyond the final limit positions. -
Switch on by pulling the red handle. Open or close by pulling the chain. Switch off by pulling the green handle .
Completing commissioning/testing
Check the following components and then install all covers.
-
Gearbox
Check the drive unit for loss of oil (a few drops can be neglected). Protect the output shaft permanently against corrosion. -
Safety brake in the gearbox
The safety brake requires no maintenance or inspection. -
Warning – Danger of the door dropping
In the case of a gearbox damage, the internal safety brake is triggered to prevent the door from dropping. The gearbox stalls.
Releasing the stalling may cause the door to drop!- Block the door for pedestrians and vehicles.
- Do not release the stalling. Do not use the emergency manual operation.
- Secure the door against dropping. Please observe the specifications of the door manufacturer.
- The drive unit needs replacement. Please observe the specifications of the door manufacturer.
-
Mounting
Check all mounting elements (consoles, torque brackets, screws, retaining rings etc.) for tightness and impeccable condition. -
Electric wiring
Check connection cables and cables for damage or pinches. Check screw and plug connections for correct seating and electrical contact. -
Emergency manual operation
Function to be checked in a de-energized state. Carry out functional test only between final limit positions. -
Limit switches
Check the final limit positions by opening and closing the door completely. The safety zone must not be reached.
Brake
Warning – Injury or danger to life possible!
- Carry out brake test. Overrun depends on the door and its equipment. The manufacturer’s specifications must be observed.
- The brake release for doors without counter-balancing may only be used in the CLOSE final limit position.
Warning – Injury or danger to life possible!
The service life of the brake – replacement of the entire brake in the case of:
- Operation with mains supply after 250,000 door cycles
- Operation with frequency inverter after 1,000,000 door cycles
Degree of protection IP65i must be used in environments that may change the friction coefficient of the brake pad (atmospheres with oil, solvents, cleaning agents, etc.).
