PULSE 400HD Series

Heavy-Duty Commercial Door Operator

Introducing the PULSE 400HD, the next step in DC direct-drive innovation for heavy-duty commercial doors. It features universal input voltage (208V - 600V AC) out of the box, eliminating the need for a transformer. This operator is perfect for springless, large sectional, and rolling steel doors. With 1 to 3 HP options catering to speed, strength, or torque, it can be programmed for speeds up to 180 RPM. Installation and programming are easy, while its soft-start/soft-stop functionality enhances durability, by reducing wear and tear on both door components and the operator itself.

Features

Universal Input Voltage

The PULSE 400HD is our most versatile model yet. It’s designed to accept universal voltage from 208V to 600V AC right out of the box. There’s no need for a step-down transformer or any additional configuration to achieve the required voltage.

Universal Input Voltage

Advanced Speed Control

This innovative operator offers programmable output speed settings from 18 to 180 RPM, allowing users to dial in the precise speed for their application. The operator’s programming ensures the supply voltage remains constant, even in areas where voltage fluctuates.

Advanced Speed Control

Perfect for Springless Doors

The PULSE 400HD is designed to work seamlessly with springless applications as well as large balanced sectional and rolling steel doors.

Perfect for Springless Doors

High Power DC Motors

We use 180V horsepower rated DC motors ranging from 1 HP, 1.5 HP, 2 HP, 2.5 HP, and 3 HP rated motor options, combined with gearboxes available in multiple sizes and ratios. Whether you’re looking for speed, strength, or torque, the Pulse 400HD delivers.

High Power DC Motors

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.

Adjustable Soft Start/Soft Stop

Programmable Closing Timer

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

Programmable Closing Timer

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 Close Warning

Reliable & Precise Encoder

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.

Chain-Hoist Option

A manual chain-hoist option is available for emergency backup operation. Once engaged via a lever at floor level, all electrical operation 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. The door can also be operated using the included socket crankshaft.

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.
