VDS PM 400 Swing Gate Opener
The VDS PM 400 is designed for automatic swing gates requiring a strong and reliable linear electromechanical operator.
Its 400 mm rod stroke makes it suitable for compatible gate leaves measuring up to approximately 3.5 metres.
Up to 3.5 Metre Gate Leaf
The VDS PM 400 can automate compatible swing gate leaves measuring up to 3.5 metres long.
The actual suitability depends on gate weight, construction, hinge position, wind exposure and installation geometry.
Up to 250 KG Gate Weight
The PM 400 is suitable for compatible swing gate leaves weighing up to approximately 250 kg.
Gate weight and gate length should always be considered together when selecting the correct automatic swing gate operator.
400 mm Rod Stroke
The PM 400 uses a 400 mm rod stroke, providing the travel required for compatible medium and long swing gate leaves.
Correct bracket positioning and installation geometry are essential to achieve the required gate opening angle and smooth movement.
230V Swing Gate Motor
The VDS PM 400 operates from a 230V AC electrical supply and uses a 250W electromechanical drive system.
The operator is designed to provide dependable automatic opening and closing for correctly installed swing gates.
250W Motor Power
The PM 400 uses a 250W motor with an operating speed of approximately 800 RPM.
This provides reliable mechanical performance for compatible residential and light commercial swing gate applications.
Maximum 120° Opening Angle
The VDS PM series supports a maximum opening angle of approximately 120 degrees with suitable installation geometry.
The actual achievable angle depends on hinge position, gate post dimensions and operator bracket positioning.
Very Quiet Operation
The VDS PM 400 provides a specified operating noise level below 30 dBA.
Its quiet operation makes it particularly suitable for villas, residential properties and entrances where reduced operating noise is desirable.
Strong Aluminium Structure
The VDS PM operator uses a sturdy aluminium structure designed to provide reliable mechanical support during repeated automatic gate movement.
Stainless-Steel Rod
The operator features a stainless-steel rod with dust scraper to help protect the actuator mechanism against external contamination.
This construction is especially useful for outdoor automatic gate installations exposed to dust and changing environmental conditions.
IP55 Protection
The VDS PM 400 has an IP55 protection rating, providing protection suitable for correctly installed outdoor automatic gate applications.
Thermal Motor Protection
The PM 400 incorporates 140°C thermal protection to protect the electric motor against excessive operating temperature.
Lithium Grease Lubrication
The internal mechanical components use lithium-grease lubrication to help protect against corrosion, oxidation and rust.
Proper lubrication contributes to smooth movement and long-term mechanical reliability.
Manual Emergency Release
The VDS PM 400 includes a manual release system with a customised key.
This allows the gate to be operated manually when required, such as during a power failure, emergency or maintenance.
Quick Installation Brackets
The VDS PM series uses multi-position mounting brackets designed to provide installation flexibility for different gate and pillar configurations.
Correct bracket dimensions are important for achieving the required stroke, opening angle and operator performance.
Single & Double Swing Gates
The VDS PM 400 can be used for compatible single-leaf and double-leaf swing gate automation.
For a double swing gate installation, two operators are connected to a compatible gate control unit for coordinated opening and closing.
Automatic Closing Function
When connected to a compatible VDS control board, the gate system can be configured for automatic closing after a programmed delay.
Appropriate photocell safety sensors should be installed and correctly configured where automatic closing is used.
Gate Slowdown Function
Compatible VDS electronic control systems can provide a slowdown function near the end of opening and closing.
This helps provide smoother gate movement and reduces mechanical impact at the stopping positions.
Anti-Squashing Safety
When used with compatible VDS electronics, the automation system can provide anti-squashing functionality according to the control-system configuration.
Photocell sensors and other appropriate safety devices should also be installed according to the gate application.
Residential Swing Gate Motor
The VDS PM 400 is particularly suitable for automatic gates installed at villas, private houses, townhouses and residential entrances.
Its quiet operation, 400 mm stroke and compatibility with gate leaves up to approximately 3.5 metres make it suitable for many residential swing gate applications.
Check Gate Size Before Ordering
Before selecting the VDS PM 400, check the gate leaf length, gate weight, gate filling, hinge condition, post dimensions, opening angle and wind exposure.
The gate should move freely and smoothly by hand before an automatic swing gate operator is installed.
Professional VDS PM 400 Installation
Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct mounting geometry, bracket positioning, electrical wiring, control-board programming, force settings and safety-device operation.
After installation, both opening and closing cycles should be tested several times to confirm smooth and reliable gate movement.
