THE 402 COMPACT OPERATOR

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

The 402 Compact Operator is an automatic, light-duty

gate operator it can accommodate a gate leaf up to 10 ft

(3m) in length and up to 900 lbs (410 kg) in weight.

Note: The 402 Compact Operators are

not

recommended for use with solid gates.

The self contained 402 operator is an electro-hydraulic

unit consisting of an electric motor, a pump, a valve

assembly and a hydraulic cylinder, all housed in an

anodized aluminum oil reservoir.

All models of the 402 operator have one hydraulic lock.

The CBC version is designed to lock when the piston is

extended. The CBA version is designed to lock when the

piston is retracted.

The hydraulic lock is a service device rather than a

security device. Additional external locks are

recommended under the following conditions:

• Your gate leaf is 10 ft or longer.

• Your installation site requires tight security.

• Your gate site is subject to vandalism.

• Your gate site is subject to strong or very

gusty wind.

• Your gate system has an open-hold-open

device.

The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based

controller that accepts a range of product accessories

and reversing devices to allow flexibility in designing

the gate system. The 450 MPS control panel allows you

to set the opening/closing time, a leaf delay for a two-

leaf gate system, the operating logic for your gate

system, the pause time, the reversing stroke, and the

behavior of reversing devices.

For its protection, the single phase, bi-directional

electric motor shuts off automatically if its operating

temperature reaches 212 deg F (100 deg C). Also for the

protection and proper operation of the 402 operator,

each gate leaf on which it is installed must have a fixed

positive stop in both the open and closed positions.

The 402 Operator also includes a triangular key

operated Manual Release Mechanism and two bypass

valves which precisely control the force applied to the

gate leave(s). The Manual Release Mechanism is a key

operated device that disengages or engages the

hydraulic system of the 402 Operator. When the

hydraulic system is disengaged, you can open and close

the gate leaf by hand. Such manual operation of the

gate leaf is necessary during installation and useful

during power failures.

The two bypass valves located on the top of the

operator needs to be adjusted to meet the safety

standards of FAAC International, Inc. The standards

state the gate leaf should stop, if it encounters a force

greater than 33 lbs. (15 kg). Once the pressures are

adjusted, the by pass valve screws are covered so that

the pressures are not altered.

Additional reversing devices such as photobeams or

reversing edges should be installed to provide more

complete safety for people and property.

The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based

controller that accepts a wide range of product

accessories and reversing devices. Thus allowing for

flexible gate system design.

402 Operator And

455 D Control Panel Installation Manual

PREPARING THE GATE

Before installing the 402 Operator, you need to prepare

the gate itself for the operator. Be sure to do the

following things:

1. Make sure that the gate is plumb.

2. Make sure that the gate moves smoothly on its

hinges without excessive friction by swinging

it open and closed by hand. Lubricate all the

gates’ moving parts.

3. Provide positive stops for the gate leaves in

the fully open and fully closed positions (see

Figure 2).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installing the 402 Compact Operator involves preparing

the gate, installing the operator(s), installing the control

panel, and fine-tuning the pressure adjustments on the

operator(s).

Note: The following installation instructions

assume you are fully capable of installing an

operator. This manual does not instruct you in

designing a gate, installing a gate, or basic

electrical wiring. The installation tasks discussed in

this manual are tasks peculiar to the 402 Operator.
