AUTOMATION DEVICE
INSTALLERS MANUAL

1 - GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Prior to proceeding with installation, it is essential the

instructions be read in full, since they contain important
information regarding safety, installation, use and
maintenance.

AUTOMATION MUST BE IMPLEMENTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH
THE EUROPEAN REGULATIONS IN FORCE:

EN 60204-1, EN 12453, EN 13241-1, EN 12635

• The installer must provide for a device (es. magnetotermical

switch) ensuring the omnipolar sectioning of the equipment
from the power supply. The standards require a separation of
the contacts of at least 3 mm in each pole (EN 60335-1).

• The plastic case has an IP44 insulation; to connect flexible or

rigid pipes, use pipefittings having the same insulation level.

• Installation requires mechanical and electrical skills, therefore it

shall be carried out by qualified personnel only, who can issue
the Compliance Certificate concerning the whole installation
(Machine Directive 2006/42/CEE, Annex IIA).

• Also the automation upstream electric system shall comply with

the laws and rules in force and be carried out workmanlike.

• We recommend to make use of an emergency button, to be

installed by the automation (connected to the control unit
STOP input) so that the barrier may be immediately stopped in
case of danger.

• For correct installation of the system, we recommend following

the instructions issued by UNAC very carefully.

• This instruction manual is only for qualified technicians, who

specialize in installations and automations.

• The contents of this instruction manual do not concern the end

user.

• Every programming and/or every maintenance service should

be done only by qualified technicians.

• Anything not expressly described in these instructions is

prohibited; unforeseen uses may be a source of danger to
people and property.

• Do not install the product in explosive environments and

atmospheres: the presence of inflammable gases or fumes is a
serious safety hazard.

• Do not make any modifications to any part of the automation

device, or the accessories connected to it, unless described in
this manual.

• Any other modifications will void the warranty on the product.

• The installation steps should be conducted so as to avoid rainy

weather, which can expose electronic circuits to dangerous
water seepage.

• All operations requiring the casing of the device to opened

should be performed with the control unit disconnected from
the electricity supply and with a warning notice displayed, for
example: ”CAUTION, MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS”.

• Avoid exposing the device close to sources of heat and flame.

• In the event of interventions on automatic or differential

breakers or fuses, it is essential that faults be identified and
resolved prior to resetting. In the case of faults that cannot
be resolved using the information to be found in this manual,
consult the V2 customer assistance service.

• V2 declines all responsibility for failure to comply with good

construction practice standards in addition to structural
deformation of the barrier that might occur during use.

• V2 reserves the right to make modifications to the product

without prior warning.

• Installation/maintenance personnel should wear individual

protection devices (IPDs), such as overalls, safety helmets, boots
and gloves.

• The ambient operating temperature should be that indicated in

the technical characteristics table.

• The automation device should be shut down immediately in

the event of any anomalous or hazardous situation; the fault
or malfunction should be immediately reported to the person
responsible.

• All safety and hazard warnings on the machinery and

equipment should be complied with.

• The automation is not intended to be used by people (including

children) with diminished physical, sensory or mental capacity,
or lacking in experience or knowledge, unless they are under
supervision or have been instructed in use of the actuator by a
person responsible for safety.

V2 has the right to modify the product without previous
notice; it also declines any responsibility to damage or
injury to people or things caused by improper use or wrong
installation.
