Swing gate operator twist M / twist ML
twist M
The powerful swing gate operator for gates up to 2.5 m leaf width
With its compact design the twist 200 M can be universally used: for gates opening to the left or right, in 1- or 2-leaf operation. The controlled soft run reduces speed right before the end positions, avoiding wear and tear on gate and operator. What more could you fancy?
twist ML: with even more lift, this operator is a real all-rounder: the longer travel length of 550 mm ensures the highest installation flexibility even if the posts are very wide.
Product advantages
Functions which make daily life easier
The walk-through function can be used to open a gate wing and reach the property by bike, for example. This makes an additional garden gate unnecessary, making it possible to fully utilise the whole width of your driveway.
With the automatic closing function, you can be sure that the gate is always locked behind you. After the photo eye is passed, the gate automatically closes after a set time.
Flexible installation properties
The large opening angle of 120° is ideal for slanted driveways.
Maximum temperature resistance
The operator was designed for extreme temperatures of -30 ° C to +70 °C.
Protection for you and your loved ones
The control technology monitors the movement forces according to EN 12453 by means of electronic motor monitoring. Continuously tested and programmed force values, also detects environmental changes (temperature, mechanical door wear, frost and ice) and compensates for these.
This ensures optimal security for people and vehicles at all times. SOMMER also offers additional safety accessories. (Photo eyes, safety contact strips, etc.)
Safety due to automatic locking
The strong automatic locking of the motor prevents the gate from being pushed open manually. Without the automatic locking operator, the gate wing could damage your car if a heavy gust of wind hit the gate.
Power failure - what now?
To open your gate when there is a power failure, the mechanical emergency release can be activated manually with a key. Even if there is strong contact pressure on the operator, the release lock can be triggered with low application of force and you can get to your property.
Thought out to the last detail
Since the cable outlet is not on the underside, damage caused by pulling on the floor is prevented. This enables a lower mounting height on the stable gate bottom beam. Better transmission of force and better appearance are the result.
Combining operators
If the active gate wing is small, you typically can use a weaker operator than with a large gate wing. You can save space and money by taking advantage of the option of combining operators.
Mixed operation is possible with the twist 350 and twist XL operators*.
* twist 200 E/EL operators and twist 350-/XL control units can only be operated in combination with the "twist XS" (item no. 3248V000) conversion set.
Determine A-B dimensions and set end positions
The swing gate operator twist 200 E is used as an example to show how to determine the A-B dimensions and how to set the end positions. The diagram can be transferred to the swing gate operators twist M, twist ML, twist 200 EL, twist 350 and twist XL. The possible A-B dimensions can be found in the A-B dimension tables of the respective assembly and operating instructions. It is shown how the travel length can be extended and shortened with the setscrews.
Fittings
Special installation situations require special fittings
SOMMER has the right post fitting for almost every installation situation. From galvanised to stainless steel, to fittings for inclined gates, we cover all areas.
This minimises difficult assembly work. Which saves money.
Additional equipment
With our additional equipment, you can generate your own optional added value. The modular system design enables you to expand the SOMMER door operator with numerous accessories according to the "plug and play" principle. All accessories can be easily assembled, as the slots are color-coded and labeled exactly.
Power failure
Release set
Optional release set from the outside for the twist M/ML swing gate operator.
In the event of a power failure, the gate can be unlocked from outside the property using a cable, e.g. if there is no separate access to the property.
Optional lighting element
Lumi Stick twist lighting
As an option, the Lumi Stick twist M/ML can easily be inserted in the lower part of the housing of the twist M/ML swing gate operator. The ground under the drive is illuminated while driving.
