- Dig a hole measuring 80x80cm and approximately 1.20 m deep, where the Strabuc 918 is to be installed: these measurements are adequate
for inserting and cementing the cylindrical container at ground level (Pic.5).
Simultaneously, it is important to dig a hole in the ground to take a corrugated flexible pipe (max Ø50mm) to the cylindrical container, passing
through the hole as provided in the container, in order to house the electric wires to be connected to the Elpro S40 electronic programmer
(to be installed in a protected place).
- Before positioning the cylindrical container, arrange a 20 cm-deep layer of pebbles for rainwater drainage.
It is important that once the cylindrical container has been placed on the pebbles, the upper portion is flush with the ground level.
IMPORTANT: Take care to avoid power or water pipes when digging. Arrange a water drainage layer beneath the dig.
IMPORTANT: Once the housing has been positioned, before cementing, use a spirit level to ensure that it is absolutely level, to allow perfect
vertical movement of the traffic control post.

INSTALLATION OF THE STRABUC 918 TRAFFIC CONTROL POST
Once the cement has set, proceed with installation
of the Strabuc 918 inside the cylindrical container.
For this operation, it is necessary to use equipment
suitable for hoisting and then placing it in the post
seat, by hitching to the eyebolt on the top of the
retracting post cover, having unscrewed and removed
the three screws and the cover.
Before placing the Strabuc 918 inside the cylindrical
container, pass all the electric wires through the
corrugated tube connected to the Elpro S40
programmer: for this initial phase, use a pull out to
be passed through the pipe first (Pic.6 and Pic.7).

ATTENTION: as Strabuc 918 comes complete with a series of electric cables, each one 10 metres long, during all these
Strabuc 918 installation operations, never tug at or charge electric wires for any reason. During Strabuc 918 maintenance
or removal operations DO NOT CUT THE ELECTRIC WIRES, remove them from the pipes.

!

ATTENTION: measure the distance between the Strabuc 918 installed and the Elpro S40 programmer: once the Strabuc 918
has been positioned and fastened, all the electric cables must rest freely on the bottom of the cylindrical housing. If the
distance is greater, the wires should be extended using sealed joints (junction boxes) inside an accessible dividing box,
according to good installation practice: this will prevent malfunctions and will guarantee efficient operation over time.

PROGRAMMER FOR UP TO 4 RETRACTABLE TRAFFIC CONTROL POSTS
WITH OR WITHOUT LIMIT SWITCH

S40

GB

General description: The electronic panel Elpro S40 is fitted with a microprocessor to manage up to four retractable traffic control
posts in the Strabuc series. With its single-phase 230V power supply, it satisfies the Low Voltage LV 93/68/EC and Electromagnetic
Compatibility EMC 93/68/EC safety standards and should therefore be installed by a qualified technician in compliance with
applicable regulations.
Elpro S40 stands out for its ability to monitor system faults and malfunctions (ISC).
ISC= Integrated Supervision Circuit is a special Elpro S40 feature that monitors the whole electronic board aimed at detecting any
component faults, or system accessory malfunction, if the operator is fitted with a release solenoid valve this allows the retractable
post to lower.
The Elpro S40 programmer should be installed in a dry, protected place, inside its own container or, in the case of additional components
for operating the control and safety accessories, it should be housed inside a Visual 344 or a cabinet certified for external use.
- The Elpro S40 programmer is powered using electric wires with a 1.5mm2 section, with a cut-off differential switch over a maximum
distance of 50 metres. For distances of over 50 metres we recommend using electric cables with appropriate sections according
to good installation practice. For all accessories external to the electric panel, electric cables with 1mm2 wires may be used.
- The three-light traffic lights must be connected by a 4 x 1.5mm2 wire electric cable and the 230 Volt powered card to terminals 60-61 on the plug-in card. Pic.12.
N. B. For all explanations on functions and electric wiring we recommend consulting the Instruction Manual, Drawing 4555.

ARRANGING THE MAGNETIC COILS
IMPORTANT: check that there are no sources of disturbance such as to conceal or influence the magnetic/electromagnetic detections
of any metal detector coils in the immediate vicinity of the installation accessories.
The magnetic coil safety accessory is always activated to detect transiting road vehicles. It prevents the Strabuc 918 from rising when
vehicles pass over the coils.
A hole with a maximum depth of 10 cm must be prepared as shown in Pic. 14 (the hole must be rectangular with the long side perpendicular
to the direction of movement). Alternative arrangements may be used to suit installation requirements, however the coil characteristics
must always be respected (see relative instruction sheet).
Specifications should always be observed for correct magnetic coil operation.

The coil is made using a multipolar electric cable, with four x 1.5 mm2 wires, connected to form a single wire.
Bury and cement in place the corrugated sheath (A) large enough to house a 4-wire multipolar electrical cable (B). The two ends must then be connected
and sealed inside a dividing box (C) to the bipolar cable (D) made to pass through another corrugated sheath (A) connected to the Detector (E)
close to the "Elpro S40" programmer.
Once this phase has been completed, the electrical wiring must be performed inside the dividing box as shown in Pic. 15: the individual wires in the
multipolar cable (B) must be connected in series, creating a single unipolar cable with two end wires to be connected to the Detector (E) through the
bipolar cable (D).

ARRANGEMENT OF A PAIR OF MAGNETIC COILS AT THE ENTRY AND AT THE EXIT
For installations requiring a pair of magnetic coils (one at the entry and one at the exit as shown in Pic.16), for each one a hole must be
prepared as shown in Pic.17, to arrange two dividing boxes "E" (Entry) and "U" (Exit) for the coil wiring (Pic.18), following the minimum
distances indicated.

MANUAL TRAFFIC CONTROL POST RELEASE OPERATIONS
The traffic control post is fitted with a system for manual post lowering. The universal triangular-recess key provided removes the
protection plug and subsequently releases the retracting traffic control post, which lowers to pavement level with simple manual
pressure. Pic.19.
Once the post has been lowered manually, it only rises again following an electrical command impulse.

In the version fitted with solenoid valve, the manual release feature is not necessary as the post automatically lowers to ground level in
the event of a power failure. To allow the solenoid valve to work, connect the wires of the electric cable labelled “SOLENOID VALVE”
(N° 4), which comes from the Strabuc, directly to terminals 22 and 23 of the Elpro S40 programmer (Pic. 20).

PRIME MANOVRE DI FUNZIONAMENTO DELLO STRABUC 918
FIRST OPERATION MANOEUVRES OF THE STRABUC 918
ATTENTION: do not power the system until all the wiring needed for operation has been performed.
Having terminated installation of the traffic control post and all
the safety and control accessories with the respective wiring to
the Elpro S40 programmer, and having completed thorough risk
analysis, the first operation manoeuvres can be performed. If
you have a radio transmitter, encode the radio receiver according
to the relative instructions before giving the command to raise
the retractable post, or give the manoeuvre command using a
key switch (pic. 21).
Siti

!

ATTENTION: it is important to establish whether
the traffic control post is open or closed depending
on whether it leaves the access free or blocks it
(Pic.21).

PIC. 21

Fixed common

During first use, it is important to check whether the wiring of
the rising and lowering limit switches and the electric motor
power supply is correct and corresponds to the "open" and
"closed" positions of the traffic control post (pic. 22).

!

ATTENTION: If the limit switch and electric motor
wiring is not correct, exchange the wires in the
corresponding traffic control post terminals, leaving
the common in place (Pic.22).
