3. Safety Instructions
The record 16 STA / record 16 STA-UL pedestrian sliding door operator has been constructed in accordance with the latest state of the art and the recognised technical safety regulations, including limiting of forces and speeds. Nevertheless, danger can arise for the user if not used as intended.
3.1 Use for the intended purpose
The record 16 STA / record 16 STA-UL pedestrian sliding door operator is designed exclusively for normal service with automatic pedestrian sliding doors and must be installed indoors.
Any other application or use beyond this purpose is not considered to be the use for the intended purpose. The manufacturer bears no liability for any resulting damage; the installer and/or end user alone shall bear the responsibility.
Use for the intended purpose also includes observation of the operating conditions specified by the manufacturer, in addition to regular care, maintenance, and repair.
Unauthorised modifications to the pedestrian sliding door operator and/or its installation exclude all liability of the manufacturer for resulting damage.
3.2 General safety and accident prevention regulations
- No safety devices (sensors) may be dismantled or placed out of service.
- No persons or objects must be present in the opening area/path of the sliding door, in order to avoid crushing and cutting.
- The automatic pedestrian sliding door operator is not intended to be disconnected from the mains at night!
3.3 Safety and accident prevention instruction for installations in compliance with UL325
Before applying the mains voltage to the power supply, the installer has to ensure that the mains voltage selector switch on the power supply NET 16-UL is switched to the correct position (115V / 230V).
The mains power connection has to be done via the mains power cord provided with the pedestrian sliding door operator. Proper grounding has to be applied. Only permanent wiring is allowed with this pedestrian sliding door operator.
If any electrical unit (photoelectric sensor, radar, control unit, control panel, etc.) is not mounted within the existing construction of the automatic sliding door installation (e.g., on an adjacent wall), the installer shall protect the cabling from any damage and shall prevent any stress on their connections by proper means. The local installation codes have always to be followed.
The delivered red label with the above text has to be placed within the cover above the NET 16-UL module in such a manner that it be seen as soon as the cover is opened.
If the pedestrian sliding door operator is used without a radar sensor to be opened, and a switch is used instead, the switch is to be installed in a location from which operation of the door can be observed by the person operating the switch.
The glazing material in both fixed and sliding panels of a sliding door shall comply with the requirements in the Safety Performance Specifications and Methods of Test within the standard ANSI Z97.1-1984 Safety Glazing Material Used in Buildings (chapter 29.5 of UL 325).
3.4 Final adjustments and tests on site for proper operation for compliance with UL325
- Check that all tasks defined in chapter 8 "Commissioning and final work" have been carried out properly.
- Check that the door may be opened manually without power applied to the unit.
- Remove mains power supply and battery connection and check that the door may be opened manually with a force not greater than 222.4N (50 lbf). (Chapter 29.3.2 of UL 325)
- Check that the door does not develop kinetic energy in excess of 9.49J (7 ft-lbf). (Chapter 29.4.1 of UL 325)
- Check that the door does not require a force greater than 133.4N (30 lbf) applied in either direction to prevent the door from closing. (Chapter 29.4.1 of UL 325)
- Check that one photoelectric sensor is installed at a height between 150 and 300mm.
- Check with a white vertical surface (305 by 152mm) that the photoelectric sensor is working correctly at a total of 5 different locations including a distance of 25.4mm from each end. (Chapter 35.2 of UL 325)
- Check that the mains power field wired connections are located inside the enclosure of the operator.
