PART II - PRODUCT

2.01 MANUFACTURER
Ultra Clean™ Sterile Model 6-7420 automatic industrial sliding door(s) shall be of type(s) and size(s) as indicated on plans, as manufactured by Horton Automatics, a division of the Overhead Door Corporation and as supplied by Eastern Door Service, Inc., Florence, NJ (800) 390-5521 http://www.EDSdoors.com.

 

2.02 EQUIPMENT

A. DOOR UNITS
Shall be a Ultra Clean™ Sterile Model 6-7420 Automatic Industrial Cleanroom Door complete with operator, header and track and sliding door(s). All structural aluminum sections shall be 6063T-5 alloy.

B. OPERATOR
Shall be electromechanical, utilizing a 1/8 Hp, DC permanent magnet motor with gear transmission and belt drive [1/4 Hp motor required on biparting doors weighing more than 160 lbs. each (73 kg)], shall be header mounted and concealed with a securely attached, hinged cover. The belt shall be steel stranded polyurethane and nylon, 1" (25 mm) wide. The operator shall have a time-delay adjustable from 1 to 28 seconds. The opening speed, closing speed, back check and latch check shall be fully and independently adjustable. Braking or checking shall be an integral function of the operator for deceleration of the moving panel. For protection in case of electrical power failure, operator shall revert to free manual operation of the door. A power ON/OFF switch shall be located on the inside of the header and shall serve a second function as "hold open" for door when in off position.

The operator's microprocessor control shall include programming on open/close check speed and time-delay and shall include a digital readout for diagnostics. An encoder shall be used to memorize and continuously recheck the door's position and to issue instruction for the functions of partial opening (optional) and check the door's speed.

Door opening speed shall be capable of opening a biparting door at a rate of 60" (1524 mm) per second if total door weight is less than 400 lbs. (181 kg.). Doors weighing between 400-600 lbs. (181-272 kg) must be operated at a slower rate of speed.

The operator shall reverse when maximum force of 28 lbs. (13 kg.) is exerted to prevent the door from closing. The reverser shall be field adjustable to meet job conditions.

OPTIONS:
An auxiliary power supply for emergency opening in a power failure.
Switch for traffic direction control.
Automatic locking.
Partial door opening.

CONTROL FUNCTION:

(1) Signal to open; closes automatically after adjustable time-delay expires. Recycles at any point of closing.

(2) Signal to open; signal to close. Recycles at any point of closing.

(3) Combination of (1) and (2).

(4) Partial opening cutoff for pedestrian traffic. Activation inputs are provided to allow the door to partially open to a 36" (914 mm) net opening when full opening is not necessary.

C. TRACK
Horton Automatics Type 20 track shall be aluminum alloy for doors weighing up to 400 lbs. (181 kg.) The continuous extruded track section shall conceal the 1 3/4" (45 mm) diameter ball bearing wheels and shall be 6063T-5 alloy. The header/track system shall be clad with stainless steel alloy 304 with a #4 satin finish.  Anti-derailing shall be provided the full length of the track. Concealed guide(s) shall stabilize the bottom of the door(s).

D. DOOR CONSTRUCTION
FRP (fiberglass reinforce polyester doors) door panels are to be constructed of .125" FRP face sheets bounded to a structural PVC frame filled with solid resin and a urethane foam core.  The color of the FRP door panels shall be a standard white or gray gel-coat finish.  Special gel-coat color finishes are available.  Vision lights in the door panel shall be flush glazed with the door's face sheets, on both sides of the door panel.

 

2.03 CONTROL SWITCHES
Each sliding door opening shall be provided with a dual threshold photoelectric safety system. The system shall consist of two transmitters, two receivers and one microprocessor based circuit board. Each of the transmitters and receivers shall be 15/32" (12 mm) in diameter and 1" (25 mm) in length. The four standard beam heights for industrial doors shall be 5", 24" 39" and 54" (127 mm, 610 mm, 991 mm, 1372 mm) above the finished floor. When any single beam is broken the system shall actuate the door and initiate an extended time-delay of 10 seconds. When any two subsequent beams are broken, the delay shall be reduced to an adjustable time-delay of 1 to 10 seconds.

OPTIONS:
Provide BEA Crystal enhanced presence sensing device across the door opening.

 

2.04 REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL WORK BY OTHERS
The Electrical Contractor shall furnish and install all wiring to operator. Provide 120 VAC, 60 cycle, 1 phase, 20 amp service to each operator (header) on a separate circuit breaker routed into header. Remote switches (if specified) shall be provided with control wire and electrical boxes from switches to operators. Remote switches provided under this section shall be installed by the electrical contractor.

NOTE: Maximum current draw is 5 amps per operator protected by internal circuit breaker in operator.

 

 

PART III - EXECUTION

3.01 INSPECTION
Installer must examine the areas and conditions under which automatic doors are to be installed and notify the Contractor in writing of conditions detrimental to the proper and timely completion of work. Do not proceed with the work until all unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in a manner acceptable to the installer and in accordance with approved shop drawings.

 

3.02 INSTALLATION
Comply with specifications and recommendations. Set track and operator plumb, level and true to line, without warp or rack of doors. Anchor securely in place. Isolate aluminum and other corrodible materials from sources of electrolytic action at points of contact. Install complete door operator system in accordance with manufacturer's instructions, including drive mechanism, controls, and control switches.

 

3.03 ADJUST AND CLEAN
Adjust operator and controls for optimum condition and safety. Lubricate operating equipment. Clean surfaces promptly after installation, exercising care to avoid damage of the protective coating (if any). Advise contractor of protective treatment and other precautions required through the remainder of the construction period, to ensure that doors will be without damage or deterioration (other than normal weathering) at the time of acceptance.
