Apollo SWING GATE OPERATOR 1500 Manual De Usuario

APPLICATIONS

The Apollo Model 1500/1600 Swing Gate Operator is designed to handle swing
gates up to 14 feet in length and 400 pounds each. A professional fence or gate
dealer is recommended to assure proper installation. Apollo Gate Operators are
available only through qualified dealers with an outstanding reputation in the fence
and gate industry. These dealers will be able to recommend the proper equipment
for particular applications. Apollo Gate Operators are 12 Volt DC (Direct Current)
powered. A 12 Volt marine type battery with connecting posts located on the top is
recommended. There are several advantages with 12 Volt DC systems:

• Low voltage virtually eliminates risk of electrical shock.

• Battery powered operators provide up to 200 operations in the event of

power outages.

• The battery may be recharged with a trickle charger or by solar energy

(eliminating the need for costly trenching to remote entrances).

If a trickle charger is used and a standard electrical outlet is not readily available, a
licensed electrician will be required for proper electrical hook up.

The following table should be used as a guide for capacity of operation of operators
only, additional options may reduce the the daily usage. Please note that the charge
capability of solar panels will vary with different geographical locations.
