INSTALLATION OF THE CYLINDRICAL HOUSING TO BE CEMENTED INTO THE GROUND
- Assemble the support plates to be
cemented into the ground by fitting them
inside the slots in the cylindrical container
and fasten them by the provided screws
(Pic.4)
- 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.

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).
IMPORTANT: To obtain an absolutely safe installation, install one coil at the entry to the access to be blocked by the
Strabuc 918 and one at the exit (page 13).

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.

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).

STATIC LOAD RESISTANCE
The static load acting on the Strabuc 918 when completely
lowered is considered as the weight a 20˙000 Kg lorry exerts
when parked on or passing over the traffic control post.
Practical tests with fully laden lorries have confirmed this result
Maximum static load 20˙000 Kg
20˙000Kg
Maximum shock resistance:
upon collision, a vehicle travelling at 60 Km/h deforms
the Strabuc 918 traffic control post to such an extent that
the whole post needs to be replaced (Pic. 23).

with the post lowered, Strabuc 918 is able to resist a fully
laden lorry weighing 20˙000 Kg parked on top of it. Pic.24.
FIRST OPERATION MANOEUVRES OF THE STRABUC 918
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).
!
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).
!
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).
Strabuc 918 in raised position:
Access Closed A command causes the Strabuc 918
post to lower: Access Open
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).

CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE:
For optimal performance of the system over time and operation in compliance with safety
regulations, correct maintenance and checks must be performed on both the operator, the
electronic equipment constituting the installation and wiring by qualified technicians:
- Oil-hydraulic operator: maintenance check every 6 months.
- Electronic equipment and safety systems: a monthly maintenance check
The growth of MECCANICA FADINI has always been based on the development of guaranteed
products thanks to our TOTAL QUALITY CONTROL system, which ensures constant quality
standards, updated knowledge of the European Standards and compliance with their
requirements, in view of an ongoing commitment to improvement.
WARNINGS
- Before performing installation, conduct Risk Analysis and operate using devices compliant with EN 12445 and EN 12453 safety regulations
- Packaging materials such as cardboard, nylon, polystyrene, etc. should be disposed of using specialised waste collection firms
- If the operator is removed, do not cut the electric wires, rather remove them from the terminal board loosening the clamping screws inside the dividing box
- Disconnect the main switch before opening the lid of the electric cable dividing box.
- The whole operator must be earthed using the yellow/green electric cable.
