3.2.1-Productdurability
Durability is the average economic life span of the product. The value of the life
spanisstronglyinuencedbytheintensityofthemanoeuvres,i.e.thesumofall
factors that contribute to product wear, see Table 4.
To estimate the life span of your automated device, proceed as follows:
01. Add the values of the items in Table 4 regarding the system conditions;
02. In Graph 1 from the value obtained above, trace a vertical line until it inter-
sectsthecurve;fromthispointtraceahorizontallineuntilitintersectsthe
line of the “manoeuvre cycles”. The obtained value is the estimated life
span of your product.
Thelifetimevaluesspeciedinthegraphareonlyobtainableifthemaintenance
schedule is strictly observed (see chapter “Maintenance schedule”). The esti-
mation of durability is made on the basis of design calculations and the results
of tests performed on prototypes. As it is only an estimation, it does not repre-
sent any form of guarantee on the effective life span of the product.
Sample durability calculation: automation of a gate with a door 10 m long with a
weight of 150 Kg, installed near the sea:
Table 4 shows the “severity index” for this type of installation: 15% (length of gate), 30%
(weight of gate) and 10% (ambient temperature > 40°C or < 0°C or humidity > 80%”).
These indicators must be added together to obtain the overall severity index, which is
in this case 55%. With the value identied (55%), look at the horizontal axis of Graph
1 (“severity index”), and identify the value corresponding to the number of “manoeuvre
cycles” our product will be able to perform in its life span, about 180,000 cycles.

3.3 - Works in preparation for installation
g.2 provides an example of an automation system, produced using Nice
components:
1 Key switch
2 FT210B receiver
3 Photocells
4 FT210B transmitter
5 Main mobile edge
6 Open stop bracket
7 Rack
8 Flasher with integral antenna
9 RUN
10 Closed stop bracket
11 Secondary mobile edge (optional)
12 Transmitter
These parts are positioned according to a typical standard layout. With refer-
encetog.2,locatetheapproximatepositionforinstallationofeachcom-
ponent envisaged in the system. Important – Before installation, prepare the
electric cables required for the system, with reference to g.2 and to “Table
5-Technicalspecicationsofelectriccables”.
Caution - When laying the ducting for routing the electrical cables, also take
into account that due to possible deposits of water in the routing ducts, the
connection pipelines might create condensate in the control unit, with conse-
quent damage to the electronic circuits.
