Nice Robus 600 RBS600BDKCE Sliding Gate Kit, up to 600 kg, with Flashing Light

Overview

The Nice Robus 600 kit (RBS600BDKCE) automates a sliding gate of up to 600 kg, so a medium home or business gate opens and closes from a remote. The RBS600 gearmotor has a 24 V DC motor fed from 230 V AC mains, a magnetic limit switch and a built-in control unit and radio receiver, and its accessories connect over Nice BlueBUS on two wires. The kit adds two four-button remotes, a pair of BlueBUS photocells and a flashing light.

Is it right for you?

• It suits a sliding gate weighing up to 600 kg; check the gate weight before ordering.
• It is rated for 40 cycles per hour with a 4 m leaf, so it copes with a gate that is used often during the day.
• If the gate is heavier than 600 kg, a larger gearmotor is needed.
• The gearmotor is IP44 rated and works from -20 to 55 °C, so it is made for fitting beside the gate outdoors.

Key features

• 24 V DC motor powered from 230 V AC mains, drawing 2.1 A and 450 W, with only 0.4 W standby draw.
• Moves the gate at 0.34 m/s with 700 N of force.
• Non-reversible electromechanical gearmotor with a magnetic limit switch, so the gate stops in the right place at each end of its travel.
• Control unit and radio receiver built into the gearmotor; accessories connect over Nice BlueBUS on two wires, which keeps the wiring simple.
• Two MYGO4 four-channel 433.92 MHz remotes, so each remote can also control other Nice automations.
• EPMB surface-mounted BlueBUS photocell pair stops the gate when something crosses the beam.
• ELDC flashing LED light with integrated antenna warns people and drivers that the gate is moving.
• Gearmotor 340 x 220 x 303 mm, IP44, -20 to 55 °C.

What else you need

• A module 4 rack for the full length of the gate travel; the rack is not included. The nylon ROA6 rack is rated for gates up to 500 kg, so for a 600 kg gate choose the ROA66 nylon rack with a metal core or a galvanised ROA7 or ROA8 rack.
• A 230 V AC, 50/60 Hz mains supply at the gate.
• To extend the system, use BlueBUS photocells such as EPSB, EPMB or EPLB; the control unit also works with OXIBD and OXILR receivers, ERA INTI, ERA ONE / MYGO, MYGOBD and ERA ONE LR remotes, EPMOR and EPMORB reflective photocells, the EPMOW wireless photocell and F210B and FT210B BlueBUS safety devices.

Installation

A gate automation installer should fit it. The job involves fixing the gearmotor on a base beside the gate, bringing the 230 V AC supply to it, fitting the module 4 rack along the gate leaf, wiring the BlueBUS photocells and the flashing light to the control unit, and programming the two remotes into the built-in receiver.

Before you buy

• The rack is not included: order a module 4 rack for the full length of the gate travel. The nylon ROA6 rack is rated for gates up to 500 kg, so for a 600 kg gate choose the ROA66 nylon rack with a metal core or a galvanised ROA7 or ROA8 rack.
• Accessories connect over Nice BlueBUS on two wires, so extend the system with BlueBUS photocells such as EPSB, EPMB or EPLB.
• Do not connect a mains-voltage flashing light such as the ELAC to this 24 V control unit.
• The built-in radio receiver is not compatible with the O-box functions of the Opera system.
