Description

The 1-Phase Control Board is used to control automatic doors or gates that operate with high current single-phase motors in high usage residential and commercial access. For example, heavy roller doors or sliding gates. The control card is available as 1PHE-3 wire and 1PHE-4 wire.

Both wirings are available in a weatherproof box which has built in push buttons and special high rated contactors for direct connection to the motor. The two built in push buttons each control up and down. There is also a separate key lock switch that is used to change from Auto, Manual and Off.

  1. Auto operation disables the two push buttons on the weatherproof case. While the PCB push button (PB), PCB external down only push button (DO),  PCB photo cell (PC) and the remote control transmitter are enabled. The PCB connections are via a terminal block on the controller card Printed Circuit Board.
  2. Manual operation enables the two push buttons on the case and the PCB Down Only push button. The PCB push button, PCB photo cell and the remote control transmitter are disabled.
  3. Off turns the card off. Both Auto and manual features are disabled. 

The single phase configuration can control a motor up to 8 Amps. Higher current ratings are available on request.

There is a built-in PCB 4-way dipswitch that can be used to configure different functions. Below is a description of the different functions available.

Auto Closing is when the door automatically closes after a pre-set time. The pre-set time is user selectable between 3 to 60 seconds by a variable trimpot on the printed circuit board. The trimpot is labeled AC (Auto Closing). The photocell will reset the auto close timer. The door can still be closed with the PCB push button and the PCB down only push button. Auto close timer starts when door is in the up-limit switch (fully opened).

Open Only is where the door can be opened with the PCB push button, PCB down only push button, photocell and the remote control transmitter. When the door is opening or fully opened the PCB push button and remote control transmitter are disabled. Door can only close by the activation of PCB down only push button.

Security Closing
Enabled when switch 3 is on. The door/gate immediately closes after the photo beam is broken and the vehicle moves away from the photo beam, even if the door/gate is not fully open.

If the door/gate is opening and no vehicle passes through the door/gate then Auto Close will close the door/gate. An Auto Close time of 3 to 60 seconds can be set on the SLD board using the trimpot marked AC.

Special Security Close
Enabled when switch 4 is on. Same as Security Close except door does not reverse to open when Photo beam is broken. This is to prevent car-tailing on more secure sites

Technical & Installation Instruction
All power connected to the card should be disconnected before installation or adding extra options.

Options
• The PCB push button needs to be normally open contact (NO).
• The PCB down only push button needs to be normally open contact (NO).
• The PCB photocell needs to be a normally closed contact (NC).

For remote control operation an Elsema FMR-201, GLR2701SS or GLR43301SS receiver needs to be inserted into the control card. When the door is opening the remote controller can stop it anywhere but not when it's closing.

Controller Card Supply Operates from 24V AC, 100mA
Use 24VAC, 1A when connecting your own contactors
LED Indicator Controller card has an option to connect 2 LEDs. These LEDs will indicate the doors position. Either open or closed
Auto Close User selectable from 3-60 seconds
Interlock Controller card with the weatherproof box (3PHE) has a built-in mechanical & electrical interlock. This feature prevents users from pressing the up and down button at the same time
Limit Switches Door stops by using 2 limit switches. One for open and the other for closed position. Limit switches need to be normally closed contacts (NC)
Overload Controller card with the weatherproof box has a built-in current overload. This is user selectable from 6 to 8 amps for 240 volt motors. Higher current ratings are available upon request.
Connections
