DRIVE
. Powered by a 12 V motor with integral case hardened steel gear reduction to 90 rpm. Generates 155 in. lb. of torque at 12
V. Motor temperature range -30 °F to +160 °F.
. Gate velocity: 1 ft/s.
POWER
. The PRO SL-1000 system is powered by a 12 Vdc, 7.0 Ah, sealed, rechargeable battery.
. Battery charge for PRO SL-1000 is maintained by a 18 Vac (40 VA) transformer rectified to 14.5 Vdc through the GTO
Control Board. Two (2) blade-style control board fuses rated for 15 A.
NOTE: The transformer should not be connected directly to any battery. Transformer must be connected with a
minimum of 16 gauge, multi-stranded, dual conductor, direct burial low voltage wire. NOTE: Do not replace fuses
with higher ampere rated fuses; doing so will void the warranty and may damage the control board.
. Battery charge maintained by GTO Solar Panel Charger: float voltage 14.5 Vdc output from a
193/8" x 151/4" silicon alloy panel. Generates minimum of 10 W at 600 mA. Gated diode on the control board prevents
battery discharge.
CONTROL
. GTO microprocessor controlled board with temperature compensated circuits. Auto-memorization of digital transmitter
code. Charging regulated by circuit on control board. "Sleep draw" is 40 mA; "active draw" is 2 to 5 A.
. GTO remote-mounted RF receiver tuned to 318 MHz.
. Limit controls are mechanical. Normally open contact.
. Adjustable auto-close timer (OFF to 120 s), inertia, and obstruction sensitivity using three (3)
potentiometers.
. Power terminal block accommodates a transformer and solar panels.
. Operator terminal blocks accommodate safety edges and photoelectric sensors for opening and closing modes.
. Fully compatible accessory terminal block provides connections for safety loops, wands, intercoms, card readers, phone
systems, etc.
. DIP switches simplify setup of gate operator.
. audio entrapment alarm sounds if unit obstructs twice while opening or closing.
OPERATIONAL CAPACITY
. The GTO/PRO SL-1000 and GTO/PRO SL-1000B will handle gates weighing up to 500 lb. (226.7 kg) and up to 30 ft.
(9.14 m) in length (per leaf) if the proper installation procedures have been followed. Note that ball bearing rollers and
covers should be used on all gates.
. The GTO/PRO SL-1000 series operators are capable high volume cycling; however, the total cycles per day will depend
on the motor current and efficiency of the gate installation (see chart below). For questions relating to specific applications
and for information regarding cycling duty when charged by solar panels, call the GTO Service Department at (800) 543-
1236.
Rollers should be lubricated at least four times per year.
Housing Dimensions: Height: 18" Width: 211/2" Depth: 11"
Shipping Weight: Approximately 90 lb.

| SL1000B Slide Gate Openers - This model has the same great features as the GTO/PRO SL-1000 with the addition of an internal lock. This built-in locking device locks the gate in the closed position and automatically releases when the gate operator is activated by an entry device. |
| |
|
| SL-1200 and SL-1200B Gate Openers - Designed to work as a slave unit with the GTO/PRO SL-1000 and SL-1000B respectively, for dual gates. Includes second gate operator, mounting hardware, 60 ft. (18.29 m) connecting cable, installation manual, safety instructions, and warning signs. Opens gates up to 30 ft. (9.1 m) long each side with up to a 20 ft. (6.1 m) opening. |
