3
Phase Sliding Gate Operators
Where gate usage is low or speed not
important sliding gates can operate on single phase
or if usage is high on three-phase operators.
The LIFTMASTER LPK5 (3 Phase motor
NB: only requires single phase supply) is built for
intense conditions where speed of opening & reliability
are a priority. Suitable for both cantilevered and bottom
track type gates on Industrial Sites, Apartments, Secured
Estates, Commercial & High Rise building entries.
Sliding gates are most suited to commercial applications
as they are more evenly supported than the swing gate.
They also slide down a path adjacent to the traffic
direction making them easier to protect with safety
devices and far less likely to suffer damage from vehicles
and other elements.
The 0.55Kw, inverter driven motor is
built to withstand the harshest conditions, with an
electric brake as standard for positive locking of the
gate. The hollow shaft gearbox enables slim-line construction
of the gate motor, with a 36:4 ratio providing the torque
required to operate gates up to 2 tonne.
The Sliding Gate can be driven safely
at higher speeds than a swing gate. Speeds of up to
600mm/second can be achieved safely with sliding gates
fitted with speed controllers that allow gates to accelerate
& decelerate. If you need gates with higher speeds,
you’ll need to look for trackless gates for safety
reasons.
