Basic Maintenance
The CENTURION system is designed to be maintenance free. However, there are
some basic checks that should be carried out regularly (every six months) which will
increase the long term reliability of the system, and obviate false triggering of the
protection systems leading to erratic operation of the gate.
N.B.: ISOLATE MAINS SUPPLY TO SYSTEM BEFORE CLEANING OR
WORKING ON THE EQUIPMENT.
GENERAL
*Keep the track clear of stones, dirt and
obstructions. Ensure that all rollers are
free.
*In manual mode check that the gate runs
freely on its rail and does not catch or foul
against the walls or pillars.
*Ensure that the gate does not bang into
either the open or closed end stop during
normal operation.
*Keep shrubs and vegetation clear of the
motor, rack or chain.
*Check that the key still operates the lock of the manual override access door. Spray
with oil if necessary.
*Check that the manual override can be engaged using the thumbwheel provided
(D3/D5/A5 models). (Refer to manual override for instructions).
*Keep the inside of motor housing clear of insects and dust.
*On operators fitted with a cooling fan, check that the air Inlet ducts in the cover and
the outlet ducts in the gearbox are clear.
THE BATTERY (D3/5 OPERATORS ONLY)
CENTURION systems that are fitted with maintenance free lead acid batteries,
should provide at least 3 years of normal service life.
In the case of a 35A/H battery ensure that the level of liquid (electrolyte level) is
correct. Check for corrosion of the battery terminals. Clean and apply grease as
necessary.
