INSTALLATION WARNINGS
GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1)
Carefully read all instructions before installation, as they
provide important instructions regarding the safety, instal-
lation, operation and maintenance. Incorrect installation or
use of the product may lead to serious physical injury.
2)
Never leave packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene etc.) within
the reach of children as they constitute a potential hazard.
3)
Keep the instructions in a safe place for future consultation.
4)
This product has been designed and constructed exclusively for
the use specified in this documentation. Any other use not speci-
fied herein may impair product integrity and/or constitute a haz-
ard.
5)
TAU declines all liability for improper use or use other than as
specified for this automation.
6)
Never install the product in explosive atmospheres.
7)
The mechanical elements must comply with the requirements as
stated in the standards EN 12604 and EN 12605. For non Euro-
pean member states, in addition to the national reference stand-
ards, the above-mentioned standards must be observed to en-
sure an adequate level of safety.
8)
TAU is not responsible for failure to observe Good Practice in con-
struction of the doors to be power-operated, nor any deforma-
tions occurring during use.
9)
To ensure the maximum safety, in consideration of the hazards
that may arise during installation and use of T-SKY, the installa-
tion procedures must be performed in full compliance with the
law, current standards and regulations. This chapter contains
general warnings, while other important warnings are provided
in chapters "Preliminary Checks" and "Commissioning".
According to the most recent legislation, the installation of
a power-operated door or gate must be in full observance
of the standards envisaged by European Directive 98/37/EC
(Machinery Directive) and in particular the standards: EN
12445; EN 12453 and EN 12635, which enable the declara-
tion of presumed conformity.
10)
Before installation, an assessment of the associated risks must
be made, including a list of the essential safety requirements as
envisaged in Appendix I of the Machinery Directive, specifying the
relative solutions adopted. Note that the risk assessment is one
of the documents included in the automation Technical docu-
mentation.
11)
Check whether other devices are needed to complete the auto-
mation with T-SKY on the basis of the specific conditions of use
and dangers present; take into account all risks of impact, crush-
ing, shearing, dragging etc. and other hazards in general.
12)
Installation must comply with all provisions of Standards EN
12453 and EN 12445. In non-EU member states, as well as nation-
al reference standards, the afore-mentioned standards should
also be observed to guarantee an adequate level of safety.
13)
Before performing any operations on the system, disconnect
from the mains and detach the batteries.
14)
On the automation power line, install a device for disconnection
from the power mains with a gap between contacts equal to or
greater than 3 mm. Use of a 6A thermal magnetic circuit breaker
with multi-pole switch is recommended.
15)
Check upline of the system that there is a residual current circuit
breaker with a threshold of 0.03 A.
16)
Ensure that the earthing system is to professional standards and
connected to the metal section of the door.
17)
The safety devices (standard EN 12978) enable the protection of
danger areas from risks associated with mechanical move-
ments such as crushing, dragging and shearing.
18)
The use of at least one luminous indicator is recommended for
each system, as well as a warning notice fixed suitably to the
frame structure, in addition to the devices specified in point 18.
19)
TAU declines all liability for the safety and efficient operation of
the automation in the event of using system components not
produced by TAU.
20)
For maintenance, use exclusively original TAU parts.
21)
Never modify components that are part of the automation sys-
tem.
22)
The automation may only be used after completing the commis-
sioning procedure as specified in chapter 5 "Testing and commis-
sioning".
23)
The installer must provide all information regarding manual op-
eration of the system in the event of an emergency and supply
the system User with the "User Guide" enclosed with the product.
24)
Never allow children or other persons to stay in the vicinity of the
product during operation.
25)
Keep all radio controls or other pulse supplier device out of the
reach of children to prevent inadvertent activation of the automa-
tion.
26)
Transit below the door must occur exclusively when the automa-
tion is stationary.
27)
The user must never attempt to repair or intervene directly on
the product; always contact qualified personnel for assistance.
28)
Before accessing internal terminals under the T-SKY cover, dis-
connect all power circuits. If the disconnect device is not in a vis-
ible location, affix a notice stating: "CAUTION: MAINTENANCE IN
PROGRESS".
29)
Maintenance: at least every six months, make a general check of
the system, with special reference to the efficiency of the safety
devices (including, when envisaged, the operator thrust force)
and release mechanisms.
30)
All actions not expressly envisaged in these instructions are
strictly prohibited.
All documentation related to the system should be kept inside or
in the immediate vicinity of the control unit.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
(fig. 1)
T-SKY is a range of gearmotors destined for the automation of sectional
doors and, by means of the special accessory P-100BANT not supplied,
spring or counterweight up-and-over doors, projecting and non-pro-
jecting.
2 solutions of T-SKY are available: one with a single track sliding guide
(L= 3m – moving parts are already assembled at the factory) or in the
3-section version for assembly (moving parts need to be assembled by
the installer).
The irreversible system guarantees mechanical blocking of the door
when the motor is not operating, and therefore no lock is necessary; an
internal and external manual release (optional) enable door manoeu-
vres in the event of a power failure or when out of service.
The buffer battery accessory P-200BATTSKY (optional) is also available,
which enables certain manoeuvres in the event of a mains power fail-
ure.
The T-SKY automation has been designed and constructed
for indoor use and to control vehicle access. Any other use
is strictly prohibited.
