14 - TESTING AND START-UP

In implementing the automation device, these are the most
important steps for guaranteeing maximum safety.
V2 recommends the application of the following technical
standards:
• EN 12445 (Safety in the use of automated closures, test
methods)
• EN 12453 (Safety in the use of automated closures,
requirements)
• EN 60204–1 (Safety of Machinery, electrical equipment of
machines, part 1: general principles)
In particular, with reference to the table in the section
"PRELIMINARY CHECKS and IDENTIFICATION OF THE TYPE OF
USE" in the majority of cases, it will be necessary to measure the
impact force, in accordance with the provisions of EN 12445.
Adjusting the operating force is possible by programming the
electronic circuit board, and the impact force profile should be
measured using an appropriate device (itself also certified and
subjected to annual calibration) capable of tracing the force-time
graph.
The result should be in compliance with the following maximum
values:
Force

15 - MAINTENANCE

Maintenance should be performed in full compliance with
the safety instructions described in this manual and in
accordance with current legal and regulatory provisions.
The recommended interval between each maintenance
operation is six months, the checks involved should at least
relate to:
• the perfect efficiency of all warning devices
• the perfect efficiency of all safety devices
• measurement of the gate operating forces
• the lubrication of mechanical parts on the automation
device
(where necessary)
• the state of wear of the mechanical parts on the
automation
device
• the state of wear of the electrical cables on the
electromechanical actuators
The result of each check should be recorded in a gate
maintenance log.
