RAMSET Responsibilities of installers and technicians installation: • Read and understand the instruction manual before attempting RAM 302 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.) Safety devices: • Remove or protect all pinch points from the gate operator’s arms.
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 302 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 RAM 302 General Specifications: RAM 302 maximum gate size & Weight: 18’ @ 600 lbs gate traveling speed: Approx 90° opening in 16 sec motor: 1/2 hp, 120 VAC, 4.5 amp, 1625 rpm cycles: Continuous operating temperature: -10° F to 160° F heavy duty worm gear: Lubricated in an oil bath for smooth and quiet operation.
RAMSET Installation specifications Concrete PAD CONSTRUCTION: Dimensions given for the pad are based on soil bearing shear of 2000 P.S.F. These figures may have to be adjusted depending on local soil conditions. RAM 302 1. Construct form for mounting pad according to dimensions shown in Figure 1 and 2. 2. Locate mounting pad according to dimensions given in illustration. 3. Level top edge of form. 4. Set reinforcing bars and wire mesh. 5. Allow pad to cure for 48 hours, and remove forms. 6.

RAMSET SENSOR INSTALLATION RAM 302 Ramset Gate Operators should not be installed without non-contact sensing devices such as Loop Detectors, photo electric sensors 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 11). 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 11 RAM 302 Opening Pressing this button will cause the gate to open.

RAMSET SAFETY Terminal strip Connection RAM 302 Figure 14 14 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 RAM 302 Introduction: 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.
