TOUCHE
2- The second operator unscrews the covering collar screws (11), removes the collar, unscrews the TOUCHE
retaining screws (12) and then screws on the three M20 eyebolts.
3- Use a mechanical arm to hook onto the eyebolts of the bollard and then lift and completely remove it taking care
not to rip or cut the electric cables (14).
DESCRIPTION OF THE TOUCHE BOLLARD OPERATION
Once TOUCHE is installed and operational with all the control and safety devices fitted, the technical file must be
completed, including a full risk analysis, in accordance with the safety regulations.
Once the main electric panel is powered, TOUCHE operates as follows:
- After receiving an opening or closing pulse, the bollard retracts into the ground or rises above the ground according
to the installation requirements.
- The magnetic coils can be set so that the bollard lowers or does not rise when a vehicle moves across or is
stationary on it.
- A red/green traffic light system signals when the vehicle may access, when the bollard is about to rise, and when
the road is inaccessible.
- LED warning lights flash intermittently while the bollard is rising or lowering and they remain on fixed when the
bollard if fully raised.
- A white or red homologated reflective adhesive strip is applied around the bollard.
MANUAL EMERGENCY RELEASE DEVICE
If the bollard needs to be lowered manually, remove the cap B(15) using a dedicated key, insert the unlocking key
A(15) in the lock underneath and the bollard will automatically retract into its seat.
HALF-YEARLY ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
For optimal system performance over time and in accordance with the safety regulations, proper maintenance and
monitoring of the entire installation by qualified technicians is necessary, including the automated device, the
electronic control units installed and the wiring.
The standard sequence for half-yearly routine maintenance is as follows:
- Clean the metal case by vacuuming out the materials that have deposited
- Clean and lubricate the sliding guides
- Check the seals and replace them if necessary
- Clean the water drains positioned at the bottom of the metal case
- Check for piston oil leaks and repair if necessary
- Clean the bollard movement cylinder and touch up where paint has chipped off
- Check that all the bollard screws are tight
- Check the hydraulic control unit and top up the oil (16) if necessary, and check the operating pressure calibration
(17)
- Check functioning of the safety devices
- Test the earth resistance and continuity using a loop tester
- Check functioning of the flasher integrated in the top of the bollard
- Check functioning of the traffic lights
- Test the differential magnetothermal switch located upstream of the system both for insulation and continuity using
a loop tester
- Check the metal detector magnetic coils
- Visually inspect the electronic movement control unit (for example: contacts, burned relays, oxidised
terminals, etc.)
