Example of calculating lifetime of road barrier SBAR (refer to Table 2 and
Graph 1):

SBAR with lights 

XBA4

(severity index of 15%) - Presence of saline mist (severity

index of 10%): 

Total severity index = 25%

The estimated durability is approx. 240,000 manoeuvre cycles.

Fig. 1

shows an example of an automation system set up with 

Nice

compo-

nents. With reference to the typical standard layout in 

fig. 1

, locate the approx-

imate position for installation of each component envisaged in the system.

CAUTION! 

– In general, position the ends of the ducting used for electri-

cal cables in the vicinity of the points envisaged for fixture of the various
components. 

Note:

The ducting serves to protect electric cables and prevent

accidental damage, such as in the case of impact.

The barrier is factory set for the closing manoeuvre to the left

; in this

phase, it is important to decide whether the opening direction of the pole is to
be inverted. 

If Closure to the right is required, see paragraph 3.3.1.

Prepare the electrical cables needed for your system, referring to

fig. 1

and

“

Table 3 - Technical specifications of electrical cables

”.

3.1 - Preliminary checks for installation

Before proceeding with installation, check the condition of the product compo-
nents, suitability of the selected model and conditions of the intended installa-
tion environment.
• Ensure that all material used is in perfect condition and suitable for use.
• Ensure that all product application limits can be observed (see paragraph

3.2).

• Ensure that the selected installation environment is compatible with the over-

all dimensions of the product (

fig. 2

).

• Ensure that the selected surfaces for barrier installation are solid and guaran-

tee a stable fixture.

• Make sure that the fixing zone is not subject to flooding. If necessary, mount

the barrier raised from the ground.

• Ensure that the space around the barrier enables easy and safe completion

of manual manoeuvres.

• Ensure that there are no obstacles along the pole trajectory which prevent the

opening and closing manoeuvres.

• Ensure that each device to be installed is in a sheltered location and protect-

ed against the risk of accidental impact.

3.2 - Product application limit

Before installing the product, ensure that all values specified in the chapter
“Technical product specifications” and maximum cycle frequency as stated in

Table 1

are compatible with the intended use.

– Ensure that the estimated durability (see paragraph 3.2.1) is compatible with

the intended use.

– Ensure that all limits, conditions and warnings in this manual can be

observed.

3.2

.1

- Product durability

The lifetime is the average economic duration of the product. The value of life-
time is strongly influenced by the intensity of the manoeuvres, i.e. the sum of all
factors that contribute to product wear (see 

Table 2

).

To estimate the lifetime of your automation, proceed as follows:

01.

Add the values of the items in 

Table 2

regarding the system conditions;

02.

In 

Graph 1

from the value obtained above, trace vertical line until it inter-

sects the curve; from this point trace a horizontal line until it intersects the
line of the “manoeuvre cycles”. The obtained value is the estimated lifetime
of your product.

The lifetime values specified in the graph are only obtainable if the maintenance
schedule is strictly observed (see chapter “Maintenance schedule”). The esti-
mation of lifetime is made on the basis of design calculations and the results of
tests performed on prototypes. As it is only an estimation, it does not represent
any form of guarantee on the effective lifetime of the product.

INSTALLATION

SBAR is an electromechanical road barrier for residential use; it controls open-
ing and closing of a road transit point with widths up to 3 metres.

CAUTION!

– Any uses other than those specified herein or in environmen-

tal conditions other than as stated in this manual are to be considered
improper and are strictly prohibited!

SBAR is an electromechanical gearmotor with a 24 V motor, with optional flash-
ing light signal (XBA7) and electric limit switch system. The control unit is set up
for connected to devices belonging to the Nice Opera system and connection
to the solar power system “Solemyo” (see paragraph 4.10.3).
SBAR runs on electric energy and in the event of a power failure the pole can
be released and moved manually. Alternatively the buffer battery model PS124
can be used (optional accessory - see paragraph 4.10.2), which guarantees a
number of automation manoeuvres in the first few hours of power failure. To
prolong this period or extend the number of manoeuvres, the Stand by function
should be enabled (see table 6).
SBAR is also designed for installation of the pole lights, mod. XBA4 (accessory
- see paragraph 4.8).
