Product Description And Intended Use; Limits Of Use - Nice Ten TNKCE Instrucciones Y Advertencias Para El Instalador

2) Product description and intended use

TEN (Figure 1) is a gearmotor (Table 1: description of TEN composition) for the automation of counterweight up-and-over doors, spring up-
and-over doors, projecting, non- projecting, and articulated. TEN is able to reach the travel limit (opening and closing) through a decelera-
tion phase. It also ensures constant control of the force required during manoeuvres, detecting any anomalies, such as a sudden obstacle
that blocks leaf movement; in this case the automation executes a stop with brief inversion of movement.

TNKCE Irreversible gearmotor, control unit, mechanical limiter on opening and closing, and courtesy light.
Available only in Kit form and suitable for automation with a single central motor.
* If used in other configurations, ensure that the power supply is from a very low voltage safety system in which voltages never exceed the estab-
lished low voltage safety limits.

Before proceeding with installation, check the condition of the product com-
ponents, suitability of the selected model and conditions of the intended instal-
lation environment.

2.1) Limits of use

Data related to the performance of TEN are provided in chapter "8 Technical specifications" and are the only values that enable correct eval-
uation of the suitability of application. In general TEN can automate up-and-over doors within the limits stated in Table 2.

Type of door
Projecting up-and-over door
Non-projecting up-and-over door
The measurements in table 2 are guideline only for general estimate purposes. The effective suitability of TEN for automation of a specific
door depends on the degree of leaf balancing, friction on tracks and other factors, also occasional, such as wind pressure or the presence
of ice, which may obstruct leaf movement. To ensure feasibility, it is absolutely indispensable to measure the force required to move the door
throughout travel and to check that this never exceeds the "nominal torque" as specified in Chapter "8 Technical specifications"; it is also
important to establish the number of cycles per hour and consecutive cycles admissible, with reference to Table 3 and Table 4

To avoid overheating, the control unit is equipped with a limiter based on the force and duration of the cycles, inter-
vening when the maximum limit is exceeded.
