NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESSwing Gate Operator S450H 24v by FAAC Australia![]() In keeping with our technological leadership in the automation market, we have released our latest Swing Gate Operator with our Hybrid technology (Hydraulics+24v). The main advantages with this operator include: Fast opening/closing speed: The S450H 24v operator can reach a maximum speed of more than 2.5cm/sec, i.e. more than 2 times of the current (hydraulic or electro-mechanical) operators on the market. Integrated Bus Encoder: This ensured maximum accuracy and safety with anti-crushing obstacle detection. It ensures perfect control of the operator in any position & ensures high accuracy in obstacle detection. Integrated mechanical stops (opening/closing): Practical add-on opening mechanical stops are standard and can be used when the mechanical stops cannot be installed in the ground. Duration & reliability: up to 4 times higher than an electromechanical operator. In hydraulic operators most of the components are in oil bath, therefore less subject to wear. Thrust force: a thrust up to 2 times higher than an equivalent electromechanical operator can be generated, ideal for harsh conditions. Harsh environments: particularly rugged and suitable for environments with difficult conditions (humidity, sand, salt etc) and low temperatures. High operating frequency: the continuous lubrication of the components makes hydraulic operators suitable for heavy duty applications. Maintenance: limited and cheaper with respect to an electromechanical operator eg in case of break-in an electro-mechanical operator is subject to irreversible ruptures and needs to be replaced, whereas hydraulic operators can be easily repaired (replacing the blocking valve). Operating noise: the oil guarantees a very low operating noise during the complete operator lifetime (in electro-mechanical operators the wear and tear of the components can cause an increased noise level over time). Easy to install: the multi-position adjustable rear brackets can be screwed and adjusted in 3 positions, enabling a better flexibility in the different installing conditions. The wall bracket has a further up & down adjustment mechanism with slots. |
