UL325 ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS This chart illustrates the entrapment protection requirements for each of the four UL325 classes. Gate Operator Entrapment Protection UL325 Slide Gate Operator Installation Classification Primary Type Secondary Type Class I Class II A B1, B2 or D Class III A, B1, B2 or B2 A, B1, D or E Swing & Gate Barrier (Arm) Operator Primary Type Secondary Type A or C A, B1, C, or D, B2 A, B1, C or C D or E Class IV A, B1, B2 A, B1, B2, A, B1, C A, B1, C, or D D or E or D D or E In order to complete a proper installation you must satisfy the entrapment protection chart shown. That means that the installation must have one primary means of entrapment protection and one independent secondary means of entrapment protection. Both primary and secondary entrapment protection methods must be designed, arranged or configured to protect against entrapments in both the open and close directions of gate travel. For Example: For a gate system that is installed on a single-family residence (UL325 Class I) you must provide the following: As your primary type of entrapment protection you must provide • Type A - Inherent (built into the operator) entrapment sensing and at least one of the following as your secondary entrapment protection: • Type B1 - Non-contact sensors such as photo-eyes, • Type B2 - Contact sensors such as gate edges or • Type D - Constant pressure control. • Type E - Built-in audio alarm. NOTE: UL requires that all installations must have warning signs placed in plain view on both sides of the gate to warn pedestrians of the dangers of motorized gate systems. 3
