Typhoon 800 AC Sliding Gate Automation System with Soft Start & Soft Stop Feature
Strong & Durable
With its Soft Start/Soft Stop feature the APC Typhoon 800 brings the gate up to operating speed and down to a stop gently significantly increasing the motors operating life whilst decreasing the jolting movement incurred when the feature is not available.This feature can also simply be turned off if not required.
The 450W Internal motor allows for an 800kg capacity making it the ideal candidate for the majority of gate installations.
Ready to go the on board receiver will accept the entire range of current APC High Security wireless control systems and accessories such as wireless keypads, push buttons and an extensive range of remotes. Perfect for a simpler of no wiring needed installation.
All In One Motor Design
Ultra compact, sleek design and with some clever re-arrangement the APC Typhoon 800 is one of the smallest physical footprint systems on the market with zero compromise in the motor or gearbox size. The bottom cast alloy section is powder coated in a ultra durable hammer tone grey finish whilst the top cover sports a lighter gloss grey making it perfectly neutral and suited for any garden or driveway
With separate open and close inputs as well as an shared open/close input the APC Typhoon 800 will support just about any wired accessory and can be connected for a specific direction or to operate both. Perfect for Keypads, Push buttons, Induction Loops or Smart Devices such as Wi-Fi switches or GSM controllers.
Pre wired with the AC power cable and fitted with an on board low voltage transformer means the accessories connections are low voltage (18V DC) and safe to connect.
Manual Override System
Rest easy knowing that even if the power is out the gate can still be operated by using the secure key override, once overridden the gate can be easily opened and closed by hand, once re-engaged the gate is locked in and 100% secure.
Metal Pinion & Cast Casing
Only the best parts are used to ensure an incredibly strong build quality from the robust cast alloy casing all the way to the one piece solid steel pinion gear no corners have been cut.
