Door Type Selection

On this operator, select between sectional and rolling steel door. For sectional doors, the factory default setting allows you to proceed without additional input, whereas for rolling steel installations, you specify the minimum and maximum roll diameter. Configuring this selection properly ensures constant open and close speeds throughout the door cycle.

Door Lock Activation

Third party door locks can be connected with ease. Once installed and selected, the operator activates the unlock function prior to opening and the lock function at full close. Settings for this feature include an adjustable door motion delay from 100 to 500ms to ensure optimal functionality and performance. Compatible with most 24V automatic locking systems.

Built-in 24V Battery Backup

If power fails, the included 9Ah batteries takeover for continued door function. The door will operate normally, but more slowly, until power is restored or the batteries reach low power. At low power, regular door function is aborted to conserve battery life, and the door stays in the pre-selected ‘Last Cycle’ position, working only via the panel push buttons with push and hold protocols initiated. A built-in trickle charger ensures that the batteries are always charged and ready. If the batteries become fully drained or go missing, a crankshaft socket is provided for mechanical backup.

Our built-in battery backup system eliminates the need for a chain-hoist, but one can still be ordered as an option if desired.

Adjustable Soft Start/Soft Stop

This feature offers smooth, controlled acceleration and deceleration of the door, and helps prolong the life of its mechanical parts. It also aids in the prevention of cable throw. The distance of both the acceleration and deceleration can be programmed to match the door requirements as needed.

Programmable Open & Close Speeds

The PULSE 300 door operators are built to achieve opening speeds as high as 24” per second and closing speeds of up to 16” per second, however, can be adjusted to best suit the application. Simple menu settings allow for selecting speeds from 1 (slowest) to 5 (fastest).

Intelligent Force Monitoring

Should the door hit an obstruction or become jammed, the system will sense the change in force and stop the open operation or reverse the close operation to avoid further damage. This integrated feature virtually eliminates the need for third-party safety edges.

Programmable Closing Timer

Set your door to automatically close after a selectable 1 - 99 seconds open delay.

Door Close Warning

When the closing timer is on, this feature will activate the red light on your traffic signal in advance of the door closing. Programmable from 1 to 9 seconds, use this safety feature as an early warning for your workers. Best used with iControls^®’s LED Stop & Go traffic lights.

Door Balance Check

PULSE door openers feature a balance check menu option. Once selected, the door automatically moves through one complete cycle and reports on the LCD the difference in force required to open the door versus closing it. Use this data to verify proper door balance without needing to remove the operator, and take the guesswork out of door balancing. A properly balanced door will extend the life of the door springs and maximize battery backup performance.

Reliable & Precise Encoder

Thanks to its intelligent encoder measuring both position and speed, the PULSE 300 operator monitors and maintains its output speed precisely. Mounted on the top of the gearbox, the encoder allows for easy, fool-proof limit setup, and easy left or right side mounting of the operator. It also facilitates advanced functionality of the door including soft start/soft stop, dual open limits and motion monitoring - if the door stops moving during its cycle, the encoder senses the lack of motion and halts operation to avoid any added damage to the operator and/or door. The encoder will also monitor the position of the door when the operator is being used in battery backup mode - no need to reset the encoder when the power returns.

Chain-Hoist Option

A manual chain-hoist option is available for redundant emergency backup operation. Once engaged via a lever at floor level, all electrical operation (battery or power) is disabled for operator safety. Default factory installation of the chain-hoist is on the right-hand side of the operator, but it can be converted to the left-hand side on request.

Weather-Protect Option

iControls^® recommends an available upgrade for all Weather Resistant applications. Standard PULSE operator motors are rated IP44, and could be vulnerable to water ingress. Furthermore, reflective photo-eye sensors can be affected by condensation on the reflector, preventing reliable operation in such conditions. iControls offers a cost-effective weather-resistant upgrade that seals ingress points on the motor junction box, and includes a NEMA 4X through-beam sensor in place of a reflective photo-eye.
To order the weather-protect option, add the suffix “-WP” to the door operator part number.

Choose Your Cable Length

The motor on the PULSE 300 comes equipped with a pre-wired length of a 5 conductor cable for easy connection to the control panel. Select the length of cable that you require from your choice of 10, 15, 20, or 25 ft. and insert this length into the door operator part number, replacing “YY”.
