2.3) List of cables
Figure 2 shows the cables needed for the connection of various
devices in a typical installation; Table 2 shows the cable characteris-
tics.

A. Power line
B. Flashing light
C. Aerial
D. Transmitter photocells
E. Key operated selector switch
F.
Fixed edges
G. Moveable edges
H. Receiver photocells
Note 1: Power supply cables longer than 30 m may be used provided they have a larger gauge, e.g. 4x2.5mm
tem is provided near the automation unit.
Note 2: A single 4x0.25mm
Note 3: Use shielded cables if the length exceeds 30 m, connecting the braid to earth only on the control unit side
Note 4: Several safety edges may be necessary in particular applications. See the instructions manual for the advised type of connection if
there is more than one edge.
Note 5: Special devices which enable connection even when the leaf is moving must be used to connect movable edges to sliding leaves.
Note 6: The necessary number of conductors to connect the moveable and fixed edges depends on the method used to guarantee the
required safety category. The example refers to the TCB65 edges connected to the TCE interface.
3) Installation
!
Installation of the TUB3500 must be performed by qualified technical personnel only, in compliance with current legislation,
standards and regulations, and that provided in the present instructions.
3.1) Preliminary checks
The following controls must be performed before proceeding with
the installation of the TUB3500:
• Check that all the materials are in excellent condition, suitable for
use and that they conform to the standards currently in force.
• Make sure that the structure of the gate is suitable for automation.
• Check that the weight of the gate is within the maximum limit of
3500 Kg and 30 m in length.
• Make sure that there are no points of excessive friction in the open-
ing or closing travel of the gate
• Make sure there is no danger of the gate derailing or exiting from
its guides.
• Make sure that the mechanical stops are sturdy enough, and that
there is no risk of deformation even when the leaf hits the mechan-
ical stop violently
• Make sure that the gate is well balanced. It must not move by itself
when it is placed in any position.
• Make sure there is no risk of flooding in the area in which the gear
motor is fixed. Mount the gear motor raised from the ground if nec-
essary
• Make sure that the installation area enables the release of the gear
motor and that it is safe and easy to release.
• Make sure that the mounting positions of the various devices are
protected from impacts and that the mounting surfaces are suffi-
ciently sturdy
• Never immerse components in water or other liquids
• Keep TUB3500 away from heat sources and naked flames; in
potentially explosive atmospheres, especially acidic or saline; Situ-
ations such as these could damage TUB3500 and cause either
malfunctions or dangerous situations.

indoor applications or an H07RN-F if fitted externally.

• If there is an access door in the leaf, or within the movement range
of the gate, make sure that it does not obstruct normal travel, if
necessary mount a suitable interblock system.
• Connect the control unit to a power supply line equipped with a
safety earthing system
• The power supply line must be protected by suitable magneto-
thermal and differential devices.
