DoorCon: state-of-the-art solutions for door mechanisation and automation There are a lot of advantages for opening and closing doors automatically. It is more comfortable (for quick access approach) and it also improves access, access control and/or saves energy (exterior doors are never left open). ERIKS Aandrijftechniek is offering under the private brand DoorCon, a versatile components program, for any type of door; hinged or sliding automatically, remotely and/or semi automatic (activated manually) that opens and closes.

DoorCon swing drive door ES The automatic swing-door drive is a noiseless horizontal electromechanical door drive with spring return. The ES can be installed on both interior and exterior doors. A controller controls the door movements. The controller closes the door automatically after the set opening time. Any door movement is carefully monitored by encoders/ sensors. In the event of a power failure, the door closes automatically (because of internal spring return) and the drive will stop immediately if the motion is impeded. Opening the door manually remains possible even after installing the swing door drive, also with push & go. Optimum security is therefore guaranteed in all conditions.

Versatility ES door swings are available for single door and double doors, in both out-swing and in-swing design. It is possible to combine a in and out-swing arm in one automatic unit for double doors. The double-ES models are tailored to the door type and resulting in having an attractive unit with the door frame. The robust ES door automatic unit is also suitable for mounting on heavy doors and / or exterior doors exposed to drafts and / or windy conditions. This makes it ideal for automatic door applications in hotels, restaurants, shops, malls, offices, nursing and convalescent homes and homes for seniors and the disabled.

DoorCon sliding controller MDC3 The controller MDC3 and the control terminal KB300 are specifically designed for the electromechanical operation of sliding doors. They can be combined with different types of geared motors (with integrated encoder), control and security sensors (parameter programming separately, transformers, drive belts and pulleys. There are also battery backup power (UPS) in case of power failure. This ensures that ERIKS Aandrijftechniek has everything for mechanisation / automation of both standard and special doors, including hermetic and security doors, doors on ships (with inflatable seals), fire doors, (in) doors for trams, metros, trains and buses, etc.

Control and operation Besides various sensor inputs, the controller MDC3 has separate inputs (program) switches, manual operation for example through the gatehouse, activated via the fire alarm system, initialisation and/or an emergency stop. Configuration and parameter programming is via the menu driven software on the user terminal KB300. The KB300 can also be used as a program switch.
