Company Profile CENTURION SYSTEMS has been manufacturing automatic gate systems since 1987, and is committed to providing reliable, cost effective solutions in the field of access automation. CENTURION strives to give service and backup second to none. Our engineers are available to give sales support, installation training, and answers to technical or installation problems. The equipment is installed worldwide and is available through a network of distributors.
Introduction A CENTURION GATE AUTOMATION system is a quality product designed to give many years of trouble free use, provided it is correctly installed and maintained. This guide highlights the features and operation of the CENTURION R3 and R5 AUTOMATIC SWING GATE systems to ensure that, YOU, the user will get the most from your system. Safety Instructions Even if you have used an automated gate before, please read through the Safety Instructions carefully.
4. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close proximity to areas where fingers or hands could be pinched. 5. Secure all easily accessed gate opener controls in order to prevent unauthorized use of the gate. 6. Keep the automated gate system properly maintained, and ensure that all working areas are free of debris and other effects that could affect the gate operation and safety. 7. On a monthly basis, check the obstruction detection system and safety devices for correct operation. 8.
Features & Functions Introduction The R3 and R5 Rotary arm operators are fitted with the CP75 controller. The controller synchronizes the functions of the gate operator. Modes of Operation There are four different modes of operation that can be selected. Only one mode can be selected at any one time. STANDARD (with selectable auto close* feature) REVERSING (with selectable auto close* feature) CONDOMINIUM (compulsory auto close*) PIRAC (compulsory auto close*) STANDARD MODE is the most common.
If the gate is opening with the automatic closing facility selected, and the transmitter is then pressed, the gate will stop, but will close automatically after the auto-close delay time. Intercom Push button (Optional) Press to open gate A visitor outside the gate requests entrance Gate opened from intercom pushbutton inside house Most automatic gate installations are fitted with an intercom which provides for communication between the house and the gate.
requiring greater security as the gate closes immediately behind the vehicle or person passing through. PIRAC will operate only if a protection beam or other type of vehicle detection system (e.g. inductive loop) has been fitted. The remote transmitter or intercom pushbutton will only open the gate. As a vehicle drives through the entrance it activates the protection beam and as soon as the vehicle clears the beam, the gate will close immediately, even before it is fully open.
Gate opening onto an obstruction Only the obstructed gate stops. Gates closing onto object. Both gates automatically re-open. both gates will close. MULTIPLE COLLISION If the system is obstructed repeatedly 4 times after the initiation of an opening cycle, and before the master motor gets back to its fully closed position, the gate(s) will stop and remain locked in position for 1 minute. After this time the gate can be restarted.
AUTO-CLOSE OVERRIDE INTERCOM PUSHBUTTON or REMOTE Press and hold the gate release for 3 seconds to override the auto-close. G AT E S S TAY OPEN If the auto-close function has been selected it can be conveniently and easily overridden for one cycle. This override feature is activated by holding down the remote control push-button, or intercom gate release button (approximately 3 seconds), when opening the gate, until the gate stops. This confirms that the auto-close has been overridden.
Gate Status Indication (optional feature) The controller can provide visual indication inside the house of the position of the gate and the condition of the battery and power supply. A LED is typically mounted on the intercom inside the house.
If the gate status indicator has not been fitted, there is an equivalent LED mounted on the CP75 marked STATUS, which can be used as a fault finding aid. NOTE: The controller's battery low protection will ensure that only the motors are prevented from drawing current from the battery. Items such as the radio receiver, Infra red beams etc continue to flatten the battery. An optional battery low cut-out switch (product code CP107) is available which will totally disconnect the battery.
system will shut down and it will not be possible to operate the gate. When the keyswitch is ON, the gate system will operate normally. This is an added security feature should the property be unattended for an extended length of time. Lightning Protection The CP75 controller has on-board lightning protection. The protection circuitry is based on a design developed in conjunction with the CSIR.
To release the manual override, proceed as follows: 1. 2. Unlock and remove the operator cover. Allen Key 3. Lift the controller housing fitted to a MASTER motor. This is not necessary when releasing a SLAVE motor. 4. Setup Tool (DO NOT USE) Swing open the manual release dust cover.
To re-engage the drive (disengage manual override): 5. Unscrew the allen key (counter-clockwise) until the top of the screw is flush with the top of the shaft. 6. Rotate the dust cover back into position. 7. Lower the controller housing into position (not necessary for a SLAVE motor) Allen Key 8. Replace the operator cover and lock it in position.
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 prevent false triggering of the protection systems leading to erratic operation of the gate. IMPORTANT: ISOLATE MAINS SUPPLY TO SYSTEM BEFORE CLEANING OR WORKING ON THE EQUIPMENT. (NB: The battery driven operators will continue to operate due to the internal battery) 1.
Battery All CENTURION domestic systems are fitted with a maintenance free lead acid battery that should provide at least three years of uninterrupted operation. In the case of a 35A/h battery ensure that the level of liquid (electrolyte level) is correct.(NB: Due to its size the 35A/H will be housed in a separate enclosure). Check for corrosion of the battery terminals. Clean and apply grease as necessary.

Troubleshooting Guide see if the symptom corresponds to any given in the list below. For each symptom listed, the probable cause and action to be taken is given. In the event of the symptom not being listed, consult your installer for assistance. CAUTION PRIOR TO WORKING INSIDE THE CONTROL CARD ENCLOSURE, ENSURE THAT THE MAINS SUPPLY TO THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN ISOLATED.
SYMPTOM CAUSE ACTION corrosion. ! When was the battery last changed? † † The life span of the 7A/H maintenance free battery supplied with the system is typically up to three years. ! Gate does not operate but the relays on the controller "click" momentarily. ! Motor fuse blown on the control card. ! Replace blown fuses R38 A m p s l o w b l o w. S i z e 5x20mm ! Make sure that the motor fuse holders are making good contact. ! Battery voltage is low.
SYMPTOM CAUSE ACTION input LED's are OFF. They must only light up when the corresponding input is activated. ! Try operating the system using the TEST pushbutton on the control card. ! Consult your installer if the problem persists ! Gate does not auto-close. ! Infra red beam (if fitted) is faulty. ! Check that the GREEN LED adjacent the IRB input is ON ! When the IRB input is ON !
