Nice Robo 600 RO600KCE Sliding Gate Kit, up to 600 kg, with Flashing Light

Overview

The Nice Robo 600 kit (RO600KCE) automates a sliding gate of up to 600 kg, so a medium home or small business gate opens and closes from a remote. The RO600 gearmotor runs on a 230 V AC motor with an electromechanical limit switch and a built-in control unit with radio receiver, and the kit adds two remotes, a pair of photocells and a mains-voltage 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 20 cycles per hour, which suits a home or small office gate rather than one in constant use.
• 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

• 230 V AC motor with 300 W power and only 0.45 W standby draw, with the control unit and radio receiver built into the gearmotor.
• Non-reversible electromechanical gearmotor with an electromechanical limit switch, so the gate stops in the right place at each end of its travel.
• Moves the gate at 0.18 m/s with 600 N of force.
• Two INTI2 two-channel 433.92 MHz remotes.
• EPM surface-mounted photocell pair stops the gate when something crosses the beam.
• ELAC flashing LED light with integrated antenna, the mains-voltage light matched to this control unit.
• Gearmotor 340 x 220 x 303 mm and 11 kg, 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.

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, setting the limit switch, wiring the photocells and the flashing light to the control unit, and programming the 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.
• The ELAC is the mains-voltage light matched to this 230 V control unit.
• Some packs ship with ON2E transmitters in place of INTI2.
• The built-in radio receiver is not compatible with the O-box functions of the Opera system.
