DRIVE
Low friction screw drive (linear actuator) rated
for -5 ºF to +160 ºF (-28 ºC to +71 ºC).
Powered by a 12 V motor with integral case hardened
steel gear reducer. Motor speed reduced to 260 rpm. Generates
520 inch lb. of torque at 12 V.
Maximum opening arc of 110º. Approximate opening
time (90º): 18 seconds, depending on weight of gate.
POWER
The system is powered by a 12 Vdc automotive or marine
battery.
Battery charge is maintained by a 120 Vac, 18 Vac
output transformer [rectified to 14.5 Vdc (40 VA) through
the
GTO control board] or by optional GTO Solar Panels [the
panel should generate minimum of 5 W at 300 mA]. A
diode on the control board prevents battery discharge.
IMPORTANT: Never use both transformer and solar panel -
this will damage the battery and control board.
One (1) blade-style control board fuse is rated for
15 A.
NOTE: The transformer should not be directly connected to
any battery. Do not replace fuses
with higher ampere rated fuses; doing so will void your
warranty and may damage your control board.
CONTROL
GTO microprocessor-based control board is set for
single leaf, pull-to-open gate installations. DIP switches
can be
adjusted to accommodate an optional kit for push-to-open
gates (see Accessory Catalog).
Control board has temperature compensated circuits.
A circuit on the control board regulates charging.
"Sleep draw" is 25 mA; "active draw"
is 2 to 5 A.
Auto-memorization of digital transmitter code.
GTO remote-mounted RF receiver tuned to 318 MHz.
Opener length with push-pull tube fully retracted
is 371/4", mounting point to mounting point.
Adjustable auto-close timer (OFF to 120 s), and obstruction
sensitivity.
Power terminal bock accommodates a transformer or
solar panels.
DIP switches simplify setup of gate opener.
Accessory terminal block fully compatible with all
Mighty Mule access controls.
Control board allows connection of safety edge sensors
and photoelectric sensors.
Audio entrapment alarm sounds if unit encounters
an obstruction twice while opening or closing.
OPERATIONAL CAPACITY
The Gate Capacity Chart shows approximate cycles,
per day, you can expect from the Mighty Mule 350 Automatic
Gate Opener when powered with a transformer. Actual cycles
may vary slightly depending upon the type and condition
of gate and installation. |
