Step 1. Control Box
The door restrictor control box is heavy duty ABS plastic
which will withstand most abuse, including accidentally
stepping on it. However, to prevent a tripping hazard, it is
recommended that the door restrictor control box be located
under the cross head or other out of the way area.
Note that the only thing you have to wire is the 110VAC
power feed. Everything else is prewired.
The door restrictor control box is furnished with a 6 foot
long, 3 wire, 120 VAC power cord. Connect the power cord
to any convenient 120 VAC power source on the car top.
NOTE: BEFORE CONNECTING THE POWER
CORD BE SURE THAT THE PLUS (+) TERMINAL
OF THE BACK-UP BATTERY IS CONNECTED.
Cut
the power cord to size, or coil and tape down any excess
cord to the prevent a tripping hazard.
Step 2. Solenoid Assembly
The solenoid plunger assembly comes with the top
mounting bracket attached. The normal mounting is on the
cab header; however a side mounting bracket is also
furnished should side mounting be more advantageous.
In selecting the position for the solenoid plunger remember
that the plunger and door restrictor bracket must be
positioned so that the doors can be opened not more that 4"
from inside the car. (Some local codes may be more
restrictive.)
Once the position has been selected, using the mounting
bracket as a template drill two 3/8" holes for the mounting
bolts. One inch between these holes drill a 5/8" hole for the
plunger. Bolt the solenoid plunger assembly to the car.
Step 3. Door Restrictor Bracket
The door restrictor bracket is mounted to the car door with
two 5/16" cap screws. The bracket is adjustable up and
down. Mount the bracket to the door in a location which
will prevent the doors from being opened not more that 4".
Using the up and down adjustment, position the bracket so
that the part with the 90 degree bend is approximately 1/2"
from the bottom of the retracted plunger.
Once positioned horizontally and vertically, firmly secure
the bracket to the door. Push the plunger down to insure
that the bracket will make positive contact with the
extended plunger in the allowable distance.
Step 4. Photo Electric Sensor
The retro reflective photoelectric sensor has an infrared,
modulated LED light source. It senses by detecting the
presence or absence of the transmitted beam of light after it
reflects from the tape provided.
After determining where the reflector tape is to be attached
(guide rail, hoistway wall, etc.), select an area for mounting
the sensor. This area should be as out of the way as
possible to prevent accidental contact with the sensor. For
optimum dependability It is recommended that the sensor
be mounted somewhere between 4 - 20 inches from the
reflective tape.
Position the sensor so that the light beam will strike the
reflector tape at an angle. This improves reliability. Lightly
tighten the vertical mounting bolt.
Step 5. Reflector Tape
Five yards of reflector tape comes with the unit. This is
enough tape for a 5 stop elevator if the full 36" unlocking
zone configuration is utilized.
Cut the reflector tape in strips of 36" or less. Attach these
strips so that the sensor is pointed at the midpoint of the
tape when the elevator is stopped at the landing.
Note: It may not be possible to run a full 18" above or
below terminal floors. In these cases position the sensor
to the actual unlocking area.
Prior to affixing the tape clean all grease and dirt from the
mounting surface. Remove the tape backing and attach the
tape vertically. The 2" wide tape will compensate for minor
vertical misalignment
.
Step 6. Emergency Release
Buttons
The emergency release buttons are intended to be used by
authorized personnel assisting in the evacuation of trapped
passengers. Be sure that these release buttons are mounted
in locations that can be easily reached while standing in the
hallway with the hoistway doors open.
The emergency release buttons are prewired to the door
restrictor control box. The one for mounting on the car top
has a 6 foot cable and the one to be located near the car
bottom has a 10 foot cable. These also come with pressure
sensitive tape for ease of mounting, or they can be fastened
with sheet metal screws.
After mounting the buttons in the selected locations, test
each button to insure that the door restrictor retracts and the
buzzer sounds when the button is depressed. The buzzer
signifies that the door restrictor is disabled and it will
continue to buzz until the release button is depressed again,
reactivating the door restrictor.
