Specifications
The barrier gate shall be the Model
BGU-D as manufactured by Operator Specialty Company, Inc. (OSCO®)
The Model BGU-D barrier gate is designed to control vehicular traffic
and can be actuated by different devices, such as radio controls,
single- and three-button control stations, digital keypads, coded
cards, sensing loops, telephone entry systems, revenue control equipment,
etc. The Model BGU-D includes the following features: |

Battery
Back-up:
• Dual batteries charged by 115 VAC or optional Solar Panels*
• Charging circuit monitors and maintains battery levels, monitors
AC availability, automatically switches to batteries when AC is
removed, and automatically resumes AC operation
• Control circuit options in absence of AC power:
Option 1: Fail Safe (opens the gate and shuts down until
AC power is restored)
Option 2: Fail Secure (continues to cycle gate in normal
operation until batteries run down and then cycles open. Resumes
cycling when existing batteries are charged or when fresh batteries
are installed)
Electrical:
• 24 VDC permanent magnet motor
• 115 VAC supply converted to 24 VDC for motor and controls
• Power on/off switch
• Three-button control station included
• Accessory connections are 24 VDC
• Easily adjustable cam-operated limit switches
• Full system capable for access controls and reversing devices
Cabinet:
• Weather-resistant galvannealed steel cabinet with powder coat
finish
• Lockable and removable front cover for easy access
Mechanical: • Dual V-belt
• Heavy-duty right-angle oil bath gear reduction
• Heavy-duty harmonic link with oil impregnated bronze bushings
• Gate arm clamp with cutting bracket
Anti-Entrapment/Detection Devices:
Operator is pre-wired to accept contact and non-contact detection
devices such as reverse edges and/or photo electric eyes.
Warning Signals:
• Pre-start audio/visual outputs provided
Options:
• Stainless steel cabinet for installations in areas where high
concentration of corrosive material is present
• Arm light kit
Control Circuit:
• Solid state circuit board, 24 VDC
• Inherent current sensing system
• 15 LEDs for easy setup and troubleshooting
• Built-in maximum run timer and auto close timer
• Master/Slave _ simple three-wire connection
Gate Arm:
• 10', 12', or 14'
• Constructed of 1x4" soft wood, painted white with yellow and black
warning tape and labels on each side

The Model BGU-D barrier gate can
be used for either traffic control or parking applications. Through
switch selections, the gate operator is universal and suitable for
all installation and operational functions. Switch selection allows
for full flexibility as to how and when the arm comes down in traffic
control situations. Added advantage to the DC operator is the automatic-open
feature upon power loss. When the gate operator senses AC power
is no longer present, the gate arm will cycle open, remaining open
until AC power is restored (fail safe), or continues normal operation
while monitoring the battery level. Once the batteries are low the
unit will cycle open until AC power is restored or the batteries
receive a full charge (fail secure).

Automatic gates are not for pedestrians!
Automatic gate operators are designed for vehicular traffic only.
They are powerful, and can cause serious injury or death. Accordingly,
direct all pedestrian traffic to a separate pedestrian gate.
