INSTALLATION MANUAL

2)  GENERAL OUTLINE

Low-voltage operator (24V ) suitable for residential use. Designed for 

swing gates having small-sized pillars. The operating arm, with its special 

antishearing shape, allows the leaves to be manoeuvred even when the 

operator is positioned well away from their fulcrum. The irreversible 

electromechanical gearmotor keeps the gate locked in the closing and 

opening positions.

The release lever, fitted to the outside of each operator, allows the manual 

manoeuvre to be carried out very easily.

ATTENTION! 

The 

VIRGO

 model controller is not equipped with mecha-

nical torque adjustment. It is compulsory to use a control panel of the 

same manufacturer, in compliance with the basic safety requirements 

of directives 2006/95/CEE, 2004/108/CEE, 2006/42/CEE equipped with 

appropriate electric adjusment of the torque.

Before carrying out the manual manoeuvre make sure that this operation 

will not create a dangerous situations.

Check in the relevant literature that the thermal field in the working area 

is suitable for the operator.

Make sure that the movement of the door does not cause entrapment 

risks between the movable and fixed parts of the door.

If swing gates with built-in doors are used, the motor must not run when 

the door is left open.

WARNING! 

The operator must be installed by a qualified technician as 

special safety components are used for every specific site and therefore 

safety depends on installation.

polarised as indicated in Fig.16.   

At the time of installing the VIRgO BAT Kit, check that the safety devices 

are connected correctly. 

4) OPERATOR INSTALLATION

4.1) Preliminary checks

Check that:

•   The gate structure is sufficiently sturdy and rigid.

 

The fixing position must be worked out according to the leaf structu-

re. In any case, the manoeuvring arm must push against a reinforced 

leaf point. 

•   The leaves can be moved manually along their entire stroke.   

  If the gate has not been installed recently, check the wear condition of 

all its components. Repair or replace defective and worn parts.

 

Operator reliability and safety are directly affected by the condition 

of the gate structure.

5) SUPPORT PLATE FIXING (Fig.5)

The operator is supplied with a fixing bracket and lever arm. 

Having identified the leaf reinforcement point, with the gate closed, 

trace an imaginary horizontal line from the centre of the reinforcement 

point to the pillar  (fig. 3-4). 

Fig. 2 illustrates the most common types of installation: 

-  with the leaf hinge pivot not aligned with the fixing plate (90° opening 

- maximum distance between hinge pivot and plate: 210mm). 

-  with the hinge pivot aligned with the fixing plate

Position the anchoring bracket observing the dimensions shown in fig.3 

for opening up to 90°, or in fig.2-4 for opening over 90° up to a max of 120°.

The pillar surface, where the bracket is fixed, must be flat and parallel 

to the leaf. Use screws and expansion plugs adequate for the type of 

pillar. In the case where the pillar surface is irregular, use expansion 

plugs with studs, in order to be able to adjust the fixing bracket parallel 

to the leaf (fig.5).

•   Assemble the lever arm as in fig.7.

  DX = fitting to right leaf

  SX = fitting to left leaf 

  Choose the most suitable position for fixing bracket “F” to the leaf.

•   Insert lever L into the gearmotor output shaft, and fix it using appro-

priate pivot P and self-locking nut D (fig.7).

•  Release the operator by activating the release lever to allow the arm 

to move easily (see paragraph “EMERgENCY MANOEUVRE”).

•  Open the gearmotor cover and fix it to the plate as indicated in Fig.8.

•   Fix towing angle bar “F” to the leaf.

•   The correct position for the operator arm is illustrated in fig.6. The leaf 

attachment point can be identified by positioning the arm according 

to the dimension indicated in fig.6.

•   With the operator released, check the arm for correct movement. 

•   Repeat the same procedure for the other leaf.

6) BACKSTOP FIXING 

 

The VIRgO operator is provided with mechanical end-of-stroke backstops, 

which make the installation of ground stop plates redundant. 

With reference to Fig. 10 proceed as follows:

-  Identify the opening and closing end-of-stroke points and fix the 

backstops accordingly. 

-  Fix protection cover C.

7)  ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SET-UP

Arrange the electrical installation as shown in fig.11.

Keep the mains voltage connections definitely separate from the very 

low voltage connections (24V).

For this purpose, the operator is provided with appropriate fittings, indicated 

in Fig.9, for a spiral flexible raceway with an inside diameter of 20: 

- P1 input for mains power  gND.

- P2/P3 inputs for safety devices and accessories.

For the mains power supply, use the appropriate cable clamp (Fig.9 -”S”), 

the terminal bar with an incorporated protection fuse (Fig.9 -”L-N”) and 

the gND terminal.

Connect the yellow/green cable to the earth terminal.

Fig.16 shows the cross-section and the number of connections.
