BENINCA BOB30M Swing Gate Motor

Both can handle 3.0m gate leaves, but their specifications suit different installations. The BOB30M delivers 2300N thrust via a 270mm ball screw stroke, produces quieter operation, and has adjustable mechanical stops for physical travel limits. The BILL40M delivers 2800N thrust via a 400mm worm gear stroke, suits heavier gate structures, and is IP54-rated for better dust protection. For Abu Dhabi sites with significant dust exposure or heavier gate construction, the BILL40M’s higher thrust and IP54 rating are advantages. For quieter residential settings where precise mechanical stop adjustment is preferred, the BOB30M is the stronger fit. Send your gate leaf length, weight, and material on WhatsApp for a specific recommendation.

IP44 means the BOB30M is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm in diameter and water splashing from any direction, but it does not carry full dust-tight protection like the IP54-rated BILL range. For Abu Dhabi installations, this means the BOB30M performs reliably in standard villa entrances where gate pillars provide reasonable shelter from direct dust accumulation. In fully exposed locations — open plots, desert-facing sites, or areas with frequent sandstorm activity — the BILL range’s IP54 rating offers a meaningfully better long-term protection level. The BOB30M’s operating temperature range of -20°C to +50°C is identical to the BILL range and fully covers Abu Dhabi’s ambient temperature extremes.

The BOB30M includes a top-access manual release that disengages the ball screw actuator when the release key is inserted into the top of the motor housing. Unlike the irreversible worm gear mechanism used in the BILL range, the ball screw in the BOB30M behaves differently under manual force — the gate should be moved carefully and evenly to avoid stressing the Ø20mm ball screw shaft during manual operation. Given the BOB30M’s 8.5 kg motor weight (the heaviest per-unit in the BOB/BILL range comparison), gate hinges must be properly lubricated for smooth hand operation.

Yes. The HEADY 230 Vac control unit included in the BOB30M kit features dedicated terminals for GSM opener, intercom, keypad, or RFID reader connection without board modification. The HEADY provides independent electronic torque adjustment for each BOB30M motor, supports separate photocell inputs for opening and closing phases, and its 433.92 MHz receiver supports rolling code, advanced rolling code, and fixed code encoding. POWERgate Abu Dhabi stocks Euromatic 4G and MHK 4G GSM controllers confirmed compatible with the HEADY unit included in this kit.

The BENINCA BOB30M carries a 24-month manufacturer warranty from the purchase date, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. Because the BOB30M uses a Ø20mm rolled ball screw mechanism rather than the worm gear of the BILL range, correct installation geometry is critical — the actuator must be mounted at the precise angles specified in the installation manual to avoid placing off-axis stress on the ball screw shaft, which would void the warranty.
