As the newest addition to the LiftMaster family of heavy duty slide gate operators, the VSL 595 model is equipped with a high-starting torque, continuous-duty industrial DC motor. With variable speed functionality, the power of the operator enables it to quickly ramp up to speeds of 2.2 feet per second and support gate lengths up to 70 feet and 1,700 pounds while still maintaining soft start and stop operation.
Designed for high security installations, the VSL 595 is outfitted with features that benefit professionals both during installation and maintenance checks. In addition to ensuring simple and secure access, the VSL 595 features manual disconnect, which ensures that manual operation is possible during emergencies and maintenance work. Coupled with this feature, the VSL 595 also offers an optional Secure Fire Department Release Box that allows the gate to be manually disconnected from the opposite side of the fence so firefighters have immediate access at all times.
This heavy-duty slide gate operator disconnect can also be reengaged without having to reset open and close limits, providing reliable performance for dealers in the field. Also, the fully enclosed, NEMA3E, pre-galvanized 16-gauge steel, hinged-cabinet
that houses the operator is oil-tight, weatherproof and lockable, deterring vandalism attempts on the operator. Additionally, on the outside of the control box is an integrated three-button control station that can help speed up installation and provide easy access when troubleshooting. The VSL 595 is also outfitted with an external reset button, offering a simple, quick and convenient option when resetting the operator after the alarm has been activated.
“Equipped with an exhaustive list of safety and security features and the ability to operate at high speeds for quick and controlled access, this extreme-duty slide gate operator is engineered to support the functional needs of even the most high-security commercial applications,” said Ken Roehl, vice president, marketing, Chamberlain Professional Products. “This reliable and rugged addition to the LiftMaster line of commercial gate operators provides dealers with a technically advanced, powerful gate access solution, helping to differentiate them in the marketplace as well as springboard them into specialty markets such as high-security commercial and industrial channels.”
Adding to the list of standard features on this unit, such as a built-in 312HM radio receiver, an adjustable timer and a two-year warranty, this heavy duty slide gate operator is powered by the LiftMaster gate logic (GL) board. The gate logic board controls a fully adjustable inherent obstruction detection system, meaning that if the gate strikes an obstruction, a closing gate will reverse to open and an opening gate will stop. This system also provides inputs for external contact and non-contact sensors such as photo-eyes and edge devices that are synonymous with LiftMaster product safety features.
