Relcross Auto Equalizer
Easy Equality Access For All
» » MANY ORGANISATIONS ARE
recognising that some of their staff or
visitors would struggle to operate some of
the doors regularly encountered on their
premises. One solution is the installation
of LCN Auto Equalizers, distributed in the
UK by Relcross. These can be activated in
a variety of ways including wall mounted
push buttons and wheelchair mounted
fobs.
When activated, the pneumatically
powered Auto Equalizer silently pushes or
pulls the door open depending on which
side of the door it is mounted. After a
short delay the integral traditional door
closer takes over to close the door and
complete the cycle. Power is supplied by
a pneumatic compressor tucked away
out of sight in a convenient cupboard or
cubby hole and a single compressor can
power up to five or six doors. The capacity
of the compressor is selected carefully at
the specification stage to accommodate
the likely traffic profile (i.e. frequency of
use of doors) and the distances involved
between the compressor and the doors to
be controlled. In fact costs per door leaf
decrease significantly as the number of
door leaves increases.
Added advantages include
reliability and ease of
service. A lack of reliance
upon micro-processors
and (often) complicated
electronics means the
Relcross LCN Auto Equalizer
has much less opportunity
for failure. Independently tested
to more than three million full load cycles,
it requires only occasional, minimal
servicing of the compressor, usually with
easily available proprietary components.
The compressor is also almost silent in
operation with a noise level of dB (A)/1m
45 - equivalent to a ‘country quiet’ sound
level.
The extreme reliability of
the system is one of its major
attractions. They are very cost-
effective and virtually maintenance-
free whereas electric doors almost always
need something replacing at a service. UK
Fire Certification is in accordance with BS
EN 1634-1:2014 (timber) - 120 minutes.
