Compatibility and Installation Notes

BFT ELI BT A40 is designed for underground swing gate automation and is suitable for gate leaves up to 4 m, with electric lock consideration required when the leaf exceeds 2.5 m. Installation requires a suitable foundation box, correct underground drainage planning, accurate gate geometry, control panel wiring, encoder setup, safety photocells and final force testing. Because underground motors are exposed to moisture, load stress and alignment issues, professional installation is strongly recommended to protect the operator and maintain safe gate movement.
