IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH:
All technicians having to install, maintenance and repair, must read these safety
instructions about sliding gate-system1with BCSI operator.
Any intervention on the gate-system should only be done by qualified technicians
having proper knowledge for that kind of work and appropriate equipment and tools
to work safely.
Any negligence during an intervention could cause severe injury or death. As soon
as you open the cabinet, cut power down by switching the disconnecting switch
(red button) to “OFF” - see section “2.5 – Shutting down the equipment“.
Do not proceed with installation of this gate operator if:
1) The model class of this gate isn’t appropriate for your installation, following
model classes defined by UL 325.
2) All exposed pinch points are not eliminated or guarded.
3) Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
The gate operator is the main component of your system. It mainly consists of an
electrical motor, a reducer and various mechanical parts, enabling the gate to open
and close. There is also, inside the cabinet, a control panel interfaced with various
control and security features.
The gate is the moving part of your installation.
When moving, the gate represents a high risk of injuries if not correctly used.
All sliding gates must be equipped, according to their use, with appropriate safety
features for safe operations. You must communicate with us to know the rules to
follow in case of special installation.
This gate is intended only for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a
separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to
promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in
contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
1By “gate-system”, we represent the whole installation including the gate, the operator, the control panel, the
access system and any other auxiliary equipment related to site secure.

The sliding gate can cause severe injuries or even death.
It is strictly forbidden to allow pedestrians to walk through the gate.
The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied
between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the
risk of entrapment.
The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the
installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch (by
screwing bolts) to compensate for a damaged gate.
Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away
from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching
over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily
accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate.
Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.
A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the
gate where easily visible.
One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or
obstruction exists.
Warning signals showing risk of injuries that can be cause by a rising gate must be
installed.
Never let children operate gate controls or play close to the gate, even under
adult supervision.
If you have any doubt about your installation or for any information, contact us
directly or contact your authorized dealer of gates from
PIVIN & DRAPEAU Inc.
Intervention site
Any technician having to work on a gate-system must establish a safety perimeter
around the electrical rising gate with yellow or red safety ribbon. Orange cones can
also be use to establish a safe work area.
Plan a way to divert traffic while working on the gate-system. If that’s impossible,
be sure to put proper signalisation for drivers traveling near the gate area.

Electrical and mechanical security
Lock down the gates power lines while working on the gate-system. Follow all local
rules.
Follow all mechanical safety rules in each gate’s technical manual from Pivin &
Drapeau Inc. Be sure to have this technical manual with you for starting the
equipment.

2.2 General view of gate operator
:
Cabinet (Fig. 2.2.1):
The cabinet, built in aluminum 1/8’’ (3,2 mm) thick, has an entirely welded gutter making
the cabinet a weather proof one of NEMA 3R type. The door has a sealing gasket, a
high security handle with door lock and a stainless steel strap hinge. The aluminum
control box is located inside the cabinet and included all necessary electrical
components for operating the gate.
Mechanics (Fig. 2.2.2):
A worm gear reducer, ratio 40:1, with a “C” flange for motor installation, allows a speed
of 12 inches/second when assembled to a standard motor with 1750 rpm. Available on
request, the operator ‘’BCSI-HV’’, equipped with a frequency drive, allows a speed up to
24 inches/second.
A torque limiter of 4½’’ diameter, adjustable up to 2,800 pounds of pressure, is installed
directly on reducer output shaft. The torque limiter is made of a gear of ratio 50:26 with
two friction disks mounted on a ball bearing and tightened by a spring washer and a
nut. This nut allows adjustments of the required force according to the weight of the
gate. The link between the operator and the gate is made of the main shaft, two
secondary shafts and a #50 gauge chain. The shafts have a 1’’ diameter and are all
mounted on ball bearings that can be lubricate at need according to frequency of
operations.
