RAMSET Responsibilities of installers and technicians installation RAM 50 GB • Read and understand the instruction manual before attempting any installation. • Do not exceed the equipment specifications. • Insure a safe and proper installation. • Install this equipment in accordance with the Ul 325 specifications. • Make sure to eliminate any pinch points existing on the installation. (ie. Rollers, arms…etc.) • ramset gate operators must be installed by a trained technician.
RAMSET IMPORTANT SAFETY REQUIREMENTS BY UL STANDARDS a) Install the gate operator only when: 1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate, 2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent a 2 1/4 inch (57.
RAMSET classes of vehicular gate operators RAM 50 GB Vehicular horizontal slide-gate operator (or system) - A vehicular gate operator (or system) that controls a gate which slides in a horizontal direction that is intended for use for vehicular entrance or exit to a drive, parking lot, or the like.
RAMSET General specifications gate traveling speed: motor: duty cycle: 20’ @ 700 lbs Approx 1' per sec 1/2 Hp, 120 VAC, 5.2 amp, 50/60Hz 30 Cycles/ Hr operating temperature: -10º F to 160º F power failure release: Chain Release overall dimensions: shipping weight: WARNING RAM 50 GB maximum gate size & Weight: H 16½” L 11” W 17” 75 lbs Do not exceed the specifications. The warranty on your unit will be void if the installation exceeds the recommended specifications.

RAMSET Loop SENSOR INSTALLATION RAM 50 GB Ramset Gate Operators should always be installed with non-contact sensing devices such as Loop Detectors, Photo Eyes or the equivalent. WARNING A non-contact sensor (photoelectric sensor or equivalent) and a contact sensor (edge device or equivalent) is required on each individual installation to comply with UL325. Reversing Loops on the ground floor, prevents gate from closing when vehicle is in loop area.
RAMSET PUSHBUTTON CONTROLS Three pushbuttons are located under the dip switches for operation of the gate (see Figure 9). The opening, stop and closing buttons can be utilized to set limit switches and verify proper system operation when installing or servicing an operator. L.E.D.’s light up when Opening, Closing or Stopped Stop Pressing this button will cause the gate to stop moving. Figure 9 RAM 50 GB Opening Pressing this button will cause the gate to open.
RAMSET DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION RAM 50 GB Figure 11 “Intelligate” Control Board DIP SWITCH “A” Dip Switch “A” 1, 2 & 3; AUTOMATIC TIMER TO CLOSE GATE ‘0’ is “OFF” Switch 1 2 3 Gate Open Duration: 1 1 1 60 seconds 1 1 0 45 seconds 1 0 1 30 seconds 1 0 0 15 seconds Dip Switch “B” 3; “CONSTANT WARN” 0 1 1 10 seconds 0 1 0 05 seconds Used with jP2 “Relay Connections”: pins 7 & 8.
RAMSET DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION DIP SWITCH “C” Dip Switch “C” 1; “SECURE CLOSE” Function: One second delay on the closing of the gate. OFF Normal Operation ON When power is lost, then regained, control board checks status of the gate. If open and safety devices are cleared, gate will close automatically. RAM 50 GB Sw. Dip Switch “C” 5; “CLOSE DELAY” Dip Switch “C” 6; “OPEN DELAY” One second delay on the opening of the gate. Dip Switch “C” 7; “LEFT / RIGhT” Sw.
RAMSET Terminal strip Connections RAM 50 GB Figure 12 12 www.ramsetinc.
RAMSET Terminal # 1 - Common: Low voltage common. Terminal # 2 - Rev loop: Stops the gate from closing. If the gate is open, it holds the gate open. If the gate is closing, it stops and reopens the gate. If the gate is closed, the gate will remain closed. The function can be altered with Dip Switch “C” 4 (see “Dip Switch Configuration”). Used with loop detectors, photo eyes, safety edges…etc. Becomes active with a closed contact to common. Terminal # 3 - Close: Closes the gate.
RAMSET ramset “Intelligate” Control Board Ramset’s “Intelligate” Control Board works with Sliding, Swinging and Overhead vehicular gate operators. It is controlled by a programmable microprocessor that reads and precisely executes all functions of the Control Board. The Control Board is powered by a separate mounted 24 VAC transformer. This allows no necessary board modifications between 110 VAC and 220 VAC single-phase applications.
RAMSET Wire board connections JP9 - Input Power: JP3 - 3 Button: 1) Open 2) Stop 3) Close 4) Common Used with a 3-button station to open, stop, and close the gate. The open and close are normally open connections and the stop is a normally closed connection, remove jumper wire when connecting 3 button station. Common and stop are also used with a photo eye used to protect the backplane of the operators. JP11 - Foot Pedal Plug: JP2 - Relay Connections: 1) 24 VDC. 2) 24 VAC 3) 5 VDC 4) Fully Open-N.O.
