  • The manufacturer reserves the right to make  changes to its products without prior notice.
  • All that is notexplicitly indicated in this manual is to be considered not allowed.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
Before commencing operator installation assess the suitability of the access, its general condition and the structure.

  • Make sure that there is no risk of impact, crushing, shearing, conveying, cutting, entangling and lifting situations, which may prejudice people safety.
  • Do not install near any source of heat and avoid contacts with ammable substances.
  • Keep all the accessories able to turn on the operator (transmitters, proximity readers, key-switches, etc) out of the reach of the children.
  • Transit through the access only with stationary operator.
  • Do not allow children and/or people to stand in the proximity of a working operator.
  • To ensure safety in the whole movement area of a gate it is advisable to install photocells, sensitive edges, magnetic loops and detectors.
  • Use yellow-black strips or proper signals to identify dangerous spots.
  • Before cleaning and maintenance operations, disconnect the appliance from the mains by switching off the master switch.
  • If removing the actuator, do not cut the electric wires, but disconnect them from the terminal box by loosening the screws inside the junction box.

INSTALLATION

All installation operations must be performed by a qualified technician, in observance of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE and safety regulations EN 12453 – EN 12445.

  • Verify the presence of a thermal-magnetic circuit breaker 0,03 A – 230 V – 50 Hz upstream the installation.
  • Use appropriate objects to test the correct functionality of the safety accessories, such as photocells, sensitive edges, etc.
  • Carry out a risk analysis by means of appropriate instruments measuring the crushing and impact force of the main opening and closing edge in compliance with EN  2445.
  • Identify the appropriate solution necessary to eliminate and reduce such risks.
  • In case where the gate to automate is equipped with a pedestrian entrance, it is appropriate to prepare the system in such a way to prohibit the operation of the engine  hen the pedestrian entrance is used.
  • Apply safety nameplates with CE marking on the gate warning about the presence of an automated installation.
  • The installer must inform and instruct the end user about the proper use of the system by releasing him a technical dossier, including: layout and components of the installation, risk analysis, verication of safety accessories, veri cation of impact forces and reporting of residual risks.

INFORMATION FOR END-USERS
The end-user is required to read carefully and to receive information concerning only the operation of the installation so that he becomes himself responsible for the correct use of it.

  • The end-user shall establish a written maintenance contract with the installer/maintenance technician (on -call).
  • Any maintenance operation must be done by qualified technicians.
  • Keep these instructions carefully.

WARNINGS FOR THE CORRECT OPERATION OF THE INSTALLATION
For optimum performance of system over time according to safety regulations, it is necessary to perform proper maintenance and monitoring of the entire installation: the automation, the electronic equipment and the cables connected to these.

  • The entire installation must be carried  out by qualified technical personnel, lling in the Maintenance Manual indicated in the Safety Regulation Book (to be requested or downloaded from the site www.fadini.net/supporto/downloads).
  • Operator: maintenance inspection at least every 6 months, while for the electronic equipment and safety systems an inspection at least once every month is required. □ The manufacturer, Meccanica Fadini snc, is not responsible for non-observance of good installation practice and incorrect maintenance of the installation.

PRODUCT GENERAL INFORMATION

NUPI 66 is an oil-hydraulic actuator fitted with a locking device to hold the gates in closed position, suitable for gate leaves not wider than 2 meters and designed to be mounted on to the gate and gate post. Its peculiar feature is that thrust power setting into low and high is not by valves, being this function electronically controlled by ELPRO 7 RP.
ACTUATOR COMPONENTS AND FITTINGS INCLUDED IN THE KIT

  1. Gate xing bracket with back plate (as an OPTION)
  2. Gate xing bracket with 4 circlips and 2 pins
  3. N° 2 x Nupi 66 actuators
  4. N° 2 release keys
  5. N° 2 protection covers
  6. N° 2 pre-bored xing plates

ELECTRICAL WIRING AND LAYOUT OF THE ACCESSORIES
Before installing Nupi 66 arrange for the accessories to have control of the system and meet safety standards as required.
Merely indicative general layout : it is the installler’s responsibility to lay the tubes for the electrical connections most properly.FADINI NUPI 66

  1. Flasher (included in the kit)
  2. Controller with plug-in receiver (included in the kit)
  3. 230 V – 50 Hz – 0,03 A magneto-thermal circuit breaker (not included) – (beyond 100 m, cable section 2,5 mm²)
  4. Photocell receiver (for the only one pair included in the kit)
  5. Nupi 66
  6. Photocell transmitter (for the only one pair included in the kit)
  7. Keyswitch (included in the kit)
  8. Mounting posts for photocells
  9. Gate stop in open position (mandatory, not included)
  10. Gate stop in closed position (mandatory, not included)
  11. Gate electric lock for gate leaves wider than 2 meters (not in the kit)
  12. Transmitter (included in the kit)

The electric cable is to dangle without sharp bending all along gate travel on opening and closing cycles.
IMPORTANT: gate stops in open and closed gate positions are fundamental for the correct functioning of the system with Nupi 66.
FIRST OPERATIONS TO MOVE THE PISTON SHAFT OUTWARDS
It is possible to move the piston shaft out either by hand as indicated (see Pic. 3) or electrically by supplying the operator with power. Either pull or drive the shaft halfway approximately.

FIXING GEOMETRY WITH DISTANCES FOR THE GATES TO OPEN INWARDS

PREPARATORY WORK WITH FIXING ACCESSORIES
First of all weld the front and rear fixing brackets to the patch plates (not in the kit pack), perfectly levelled (Pic. 5).

Metal patch plate to strengthen the fixing point (optional). With heavy installations it is recommended that the patch plate be adequate to the gate type. With light gates made of aluminium sheeted panels or wood, counterplates should be used to take the screws passing through. Pic. 5
**** It is advised that Nupi 66 be temporary fixed to the gate, perfectly aligned, by means of clamps. Then override the locking device and carry out a few manual cycles by opening and closing the gate to make sure the xing ! geometry is correct and a proper 90° opening can so be achieved.
