Technical Specifications
System Power
• The system is powered by a 12 VDC, 7.2 Ah, sealed,
rechargeable lead-acid battery.
• The battery is charged by a 120 to 18 VAC step-down
transformer which supplies power to an integrated 1
amp charger on the Zareba gate opener control
board.
• The control board is protected by one 15 amp blade-
style fuse.
• Optional Zareba Solar Panel for charging battery. The
solar panel provides voltage, current, and power of
16.5 VDC, .300 amps, and 5 watts of power,
respectively.
Voltage Ratings
18 VAC Transformer: 18.0 to 22.0 VAC
5 W Solar panel (single): 16.5 to 22.0 VDC 300 mA
12 V Battery: 12.0 to 13.5 VDC 7.2 Ah
Charging circuit: 12.0 to 14.8 VDC
Gate Drive
• Linear actuator temperature range: -30°F to 120°F
(-34°C to 49°C).
• Powered by a 12 VDC motor.
• Load capacity up to 2000N.
• Maximum opening arc of 130°. Approximate opening
time (90°): 20 seconds, depending on weight of gate.
Gate Control Panel
• Gate opener’s microprocessor-based control board is
factory set for single or dual, pull-to-open gate
installations.
• DIP switches can be adjusted for dual or push-to-open
gates to facilitate gate opener set-up.
• RF receiver tuned to 310 MHz.
• Opener length with push-pull tube fully retracted is
32.5 inches.
• Adjustable auto-close timer (OFF to 120 seconds) and
obstruction sensitivity.
• Provisions made for digital keypads, pull-to-
open/push-to-open buttons, contact (safety edge)
sensors, and non-contact (photoelectric) sensors.
• Audible entrapment alarm.
Operational Capacity
• The Gate Capacity Chart shows the approximate
cycles per day you can expect when the battery is
being charged with transformer and AC power.
Important Gate Information!
Inspect the gate to ensure that it is in proper condition
for the installation of the gate opener. Take steps as nec-
essary to meet these requirements.
The following criteria MUST be met prior to installation:
• The gate is plumb, level, and swings freely on its
hinges.
• No wheels are attached to the gate.
• The gate moves throughout its arc without binding or
dragging on the ground.
• Gates weighing more than 250 lbs. use ball-bearing
hinges with grease fittings.
• The fence post is secured in the ground with concrete
to minimize twist or flex when the opener is activated.
• If your gate lacks a horizontal or vertical cross mem-
ber, add one to provide a stable area for mounting
the gate bracket.
