CONNECTING SAFETY DEVICES

CONNECTING SAFETY DEVICES

The GTO/PRO SL-1000 and SL-2000 series operators are equipped with built-in obstruction sensitivity. These operators are designed to stop and reverse the gate for 2 seconds when it comes in contact with an obstruction. However, obstruction sensitivity, even when properly adjusted, may not be sensitive enough to prevent bodily injury. For this reason, safety edges or photoelectric sensors MUST be installed on the gate. Safety edges (or photoelectric sensors) must be mounted in compliance with Underwriters Laboratories’ safety standard for gate operators, UL 325. Review page 6 for information about mounting requirements for safety edges and photo- electric sensors.

Refer to the sensor manufacturer’s instructions for information about installing these devices on a vehicular gate.

Make sure the control box power switch is OFF before connecting safety device wiring to the terminal blocks.

Insert the safety device wires into the CLS EDG terminal (located on the FIRST OPERATOR terminal block) for the gate closing mode. Ground the safety device at the GRN terminal. Connect the safety device wires for the gate opening mode to the OPN EDG terminal in the same manner.

MAKE SURE TO GROUND THE SAFETY DEVICES AT THE GRN TERMINAL! THE CONTROL BOARD COULD BE DAMAGED IF THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE NOT GROUNDED!

CONNECTING ADDITIONAL SAFETY DEVICES

Although GTO strongly recommends the use of additional safety devices, we do not endorse any specific brand names. Only use products that are certified and listed to be in compliance with UL (United Laboratories) and national and regional safety codes.
