2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
SPIDER is an electromechanical actuator for automating sectional doors
and protruding and non-protruding overhead doors.
For the application with non-protruding overhead doors, or protruding
overhead doors without springs, it is necessary to use the SPA5 accesso
-
ry, which is not supplied.
The SPA5 accessory is not necessary in the event of spring-based bal
-
ancing.
The control unit supplied with the product, besides powering the DC
motor, ensures optimal adjustment of the gearmotor torque and speed,
precise measurement of the positions, gradual starting and closing, and
obstacle detection. It is also equipped with an internal meter which allows
for recording of the manoeuvres performed by the gearmotor during its
lifetime.
The unlocking mechanism, activated from the ground, disengages the
motor carriage from the guide.

3 INSTALLATION
3.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
a
The installation must be carried out by qualied person-
nel in compliance with the current legislation, standards
and regulations, and with the instructions provided in this
manual.
Before proceeding with the product’s installation, it is necessary to:
– check the integrity of the supply
– check that all the materials are in good working order and suited to the
intended use
– make sure that the structure of the door is suitable for being automated
– make sure that the characteristics of the door fall within the operating
limits specied in the “Product usage limits” paragraph (page 6)
– verify that there are no points of greater friction during the opening and
closing movements along the entire door path
– verify that the area where the gearmotor is installed allows for unlocking
the latter and manoeuvring easily and safely
– Verify that the mounting points of the various devices are protected
against impacts and that the mounting surfaces are sufciently sturdy
– Components must never be immersed in water or other liquids
– Keep the product away from heat sources and open ames and acid,
saline or potentially explosive atmospheres; these may damage the
product and cause malfunctions or dangerous situations
– Connect the control unit to an electricity supply line equipped with a
safety earthing system
– Mount a device on the electric power line that completely disconnects
the automation from the grid. The disconnection device must have con
-
tacts with a sufcient gap to ensure complete disconnection, under the
Category III overvoltage conditions, in accordance with the installation
instructions. Should it be necessary, this device guarantees fast and
safe disconnection from the power supply; it must therefore be posi
-
tioned in view of the automation. If placed in a non-visible location, it
must have a system that blocks any accidental on unauthorised recon
-
nection of the power supply, in order to prevent dangerous situations.
The disconnection device is not supplied with the product.
