Abloy Security has launched a new heavy-duty door operator, which has been designed for high density pedestrian traffic areas, including hospitals, airports, hotels, shopping centres and other public buildings.
The DA361 can be used on external and internal doors, both single and double, and is suited to fire doors, as it has been developed to meet the requirements of the EN13501-2 and EN1634-1 standards and can be connected directly to fire alarm systems.
Each door operator incorporates a power supply unit, motor control board, door closing mechanism, and position sensors in a single unit. The system features control mechanisms, with an electro-mechanical clutch and hydraulic closing system to help minimise energy consumption and improve control over opening and closing speeds and force. It will automatically reopen up to four times if the doorway is blocked.
The door operator can also be configured to assist manual opening and is programmable to provide a push and go function where a low opening force is required, such as on premises with disabled people.
When fitted with a standard arm, the DA361 can be used on doors with a maximum weight of 125 kg and with a maximum door leaf width of 1000mm. When used with a sliding arm the new door operator can be used on doors with a maximum weight of 90 kg and a door leaf width of 1000mm. The DA361 has a maximum opening angle of 110 degrees on the opening side and 100 degrees on the closing side, has been developed to meet class 6 closing force requirements according to EN1154 and the provisional EN12650 standards, and has been tested to 1 million opening/closing cycles.
The door operator is available in an aluminium finish and is supplied complete with arm and mounting plate.
