High Performance DC-powered Barrier Gate Operator with Built-in Battery Backup
The Mega Arm Tower is a DC-powered, high performance barrier gate operator. Designed with a 24VDC (0.5HP equivalent) motor, the Mega Arm Tower provides exceptional starting torque and continuous operation, making it ideal for most applications. Constructed with an aluminum alloy chassis, they're corrosion resistant and light enough for one person to carry and install. The heavy-duty motor supports 6,000 cycles per day with an operator speed of 2.5 seconds to open or close.
Radio Receiver Included - The Mega Arm T barrier gate includes a single remote control access solution for gates and additional access points.
Standard Features
Radio Receiver - includes a radio receiver for use with DIP switch, billion code and Security+ remote controls. This allows for one Liftmaster remote control to conveniently open the gate and additional access points. Remote controls sold separately.
Aluminum Alloy Chassis - lightweight, 1/4" rustproof T-6 aluminum alloy chassis for superior heat and corrosion resistance.
Soft Start/Stop - reduces the stress and shock to the gate system during starting and stopping, providing longer gate and operator life.
Built-in Battery Backup - the system will automatically engage in the event of a power loss and auto-rest to normal operation once power is restored. It provides complete operation of the gate operator, all DC control devices and sensing devices. Gate arm opens on power failure with a 15-second delay.
DC Operator System - powered by a 0.5HP equivalent 24VDC motor, the system provides exceptional starting torque.
Right or Left-Handed Operation - allows flexibility of arm orientation to be determined prior to or during on-site installation.
Breakaway Arm - breakaway arm design protects teh operator adn allows the arm to be reused time and time again. Choose from a 12' or 15' aluminum gate arm or 14' soft-padded gate arm; arm ordered separately from the operator.
Control Inputs - safe, low voltage control inputs allow the connection of a full range of optional external devices like loop detectors, telephone entry systems, access control systems and radio receivers.
Inherent Obstruction Sensing - offers separate force adjustments for both open adn closing directions. If the gate comes into contact with an obstruction, a closing gate will reverse to open and an opening gate will stop.
LED Indicators - operator input, status and diagnostic LEDs help to simplify setup and troubleshooting.
Dual Gate Operation - supports the operation of two separate gate operators in unison at a single entrance, assuring consistent, simultaneous open/close cycle for both operators.
Dynamic Braking - especially important on high-cycle gates, the electronic brake system provides total gate position control to ensure consistent gate closing without coasting.
Magnetic Sensors - arm position is controlled by magnet that is mounted on the drive shaft. This is detected by two magnetic sensors on the control board.
Timer to Close - adjustable timer may be set between 1 and 33 seconds. The unit will automatically reset upon receiving any additional open commands.
