September 2009 by MKT Hydraulic technology 1

September 2009 by MKT Duration and reliability: up to 4 times higher than an electromechanical operator. In a hydraulic operator most of the components are in oil bath, therefore less subjected to wear. Thrust force: a thrust up to 2 times higher than an equivalent electromechanical operator can be generated. (this makes hydraulic operators particularly suitable for harsh conditions, e.g. windy environments) Harsh environments: particularly rugged and suitable for environments with difficult conditions (humidity, sand, salt, etc.), low temperatures (- 40°C with winter oil, electro-mechanical max– 20°C). High operating frequency: the continuous lubrication of the components makes hydraulic operators suitable for heavy duty applications. Maintenance: limited and cheaper with respect to a electromechanical operator: e.g. in case of break-in an electro-mechanical operator is subjected to irreversible ruptures and needs to be replaced, whereas an hydraulic operator can be easily repaired (replacing the blocking valve). Operating noise: the oil guarantees a very low operating noise during the complete operator lifetime. (in electro-mechanical operators the wear and tear of the components can cause an increased noise level along the time). 1 Advantages of hydraulic technology In the medium term, the cost of an hydraulic operator is cheaper with respect to an electromechanical operator Tecnologia oleodinamica Facilità di installazione Circuito idraulico ermetico Encoder integrato Velocità elevata di apertura/chiusura cancello Arresti meccanici integrabili Nuovo sistema SB (brevetto FAAC)

September 2009 by MKT High reliability in any application 1 Heavy duty The technology, core of the S450H operator, combines the advantages of hydraulic technology with 24V DC motor. On one hand, the hydraulic circuit coupled with 24V motor allows a continuous duty, making this operator suitable for high frequency transit applications. Moreover, the hydraulic technology requires high quality components with very limited tolerances (e.g. 2 microns for the pumps), making the S450H a very reliable and durable product. 24V + Hydraulics = Tecnologia oleodinamica Facilità di installazione Circuito idraulico ermetico Encoder integrato Velocità elevata di apertura/chiusura cancello Arresti meccanici integrabili Nuovo sistema SB (brevetto FAAC)

September 2009 by MKT Innovative hydraulic circuit 3

September 2009 by MKT No by-pass valves 3 Innovative hydraulic circuit The S450H hydraulic circuit is completely innovative. The by-pass valves are not foreseen in this operator because all the speed and strength adjustments can be performed through the electronic board, with advantages in terms of accuracy and easiness of use.

September 2009 by MKT No breathing screw 3 Innovative hydraulic circuit: hermetic Luglio 2009 by MKT No breathing screw The S450H hydraulic circuit is completely hermetic, and there is already the perfect mix between air and oil inside the tank. Therefore, the breathing screw is not necessary, avoiding also any possibility of oil pollution along the lifetime.

September 2009 by MKT Maximal accuracy and respect of the safety standards Inversion on obstacles 4 Integrated bus encoder The bus encoder, integrated on the rear bracket, allows to perfectly control the operator in any position. In addition, it ensures a high accuracy in obstacle detection and inversion quickness, according to the current European safety standards. The encoder is protected with a plastic cover that can be easily removed for maintenance. The protecting cover:  shields the rear bracket as well as improving its esthetics.  is transparent allowing to view the encoder status (LED) Protecting cover Tecnologia oleodinamica Facilità di installazione Circuito idraulico ermetico Encoder integrato Velocità elevata di apertura/chiusura cancello Arresti meccanici integrabili Nuovo sistema SB (brevetto FAAC)

September 2009 by MKT Integrated opening/closing mechanical stops 6

September 2009 by MKT 6 Integrated mechanical stops (closing/opening) Practical add-on opening mechanical stops included To be used when the mechanical stops are not present in the ground. The bushings can be easily inserted in the rod. The number of needed bushings depends on the desired opening angle. Closing mechanical stop The S450H operator has an internal mechanical stop based on additional and reinforced supports on the front flange. This allows to avoid the installation of ground mechanical stops by using the whole stroke of the operator (it’s not necessary anymore to recede the rod by 5mm during installation) Additional and reinforced support on the flange Tecnologia oleodinamica Facilità di installazione Circuito idraulico ermetico Encoder integrato Velocità elevata di apertura/chiusura cancello Arresti meccanici integrabili Nuovo sistema SB (brevetto FAAC)

September 2009 by MKT 2 versions: tri-drive valve SB system (FAAC patent) and CBAC 7

September 2009 by MKT Easy to open in any installation 7 New tri-drive valve SB system (FAAC patent) In traditional SB (without hydraulic lock) operators, the manual opening/closing operation is often quite difficult. The reason is that during manual operations the oil has to flow through the pump with a certain pressure, therefore it might be necessary to slightly “force” the gate in order to reach this pressure. The new SB system (FAAC patent) includes a tri-drive valve that makes easier to manually move the gate, because the oil doesn’t need to flow through the pump during the manual operations.

The GS is a voluntary mark, but it’s not a self-certification like EN Tested (used by our competitors) and it should not be confused with the CE mark.
