Bravo operator
Big jobs with high traffic of people (for its high opening speed)
Big accounts: supermarket chains, banks, etc.
Specification jobs: airports, shopping malls, department stores, hospitals, etc.
Doors with special requirements: access control systems, fail-secure option, lock in safety mode, pharmacy opening, etc.
Curved and circular doors, panic break-out and telescopic doors.
 

 
Activa+ operator
Quick and easy installation and commissioning
Drive unit easy to fix onto the main profile
Easier access to dragging arms
Electronic control panel easier to access and replace
Automatic lock easier to access and replace
“Plug and Play” technology
When used in combination with our new “Manusa IR radar”, no photocells are needed (something less to wire)
Rotative selector as an option (more economic)
Simplified control panel (less chances of malfunction)
Motor keeps a residual tension on the door leaves to keep them closed in automatic mode during the first 5 minutes

  Special Features
Robust 3-phase AC motors, with no reduction gear.
Independent Variation of Voltage and Frequency (VVVF technology)
5-year guarantee on motors
Computerized control and self-diagnostic system
Optimum control of the three phase motors
Constant self-monitoring and self-diagnostic by microprocessor the
program switch will alert the end user of any malfunction.
Large number of parameters adjustable
Digital communication with external devices
Digital management from self-engineered platforms
Total control and centralization from a remote PC
Innovative solutions (GSM, Internet, LAN...) for remote maintenance
Large number of parameters adjustable

Universal motor group
Bi-parting < 2000 mm / Single slide < 1000 mm, as supplied
Bi-parting up to 2950 mm / Single slide up to 2000 mm, using a simple extension kit
Competitors: every part in its place, always different according to clear opening

Motor group
AC induction motor with more than 200 W of true mechanical power (Palma/Bravo)
1 or 2 motors depending on type of installation
Independent variation of Voltage and Frequency (exclusive of Manusa)
Maintenance free brushless motor. No lubrication necessary.
No reduction gear (Palma/Bravo)
Toothed drive belt
Self-monitoring system to detect and advise about any malfunction
Competitors: DC motors (aprox. 40W) with reduction gear. Some of them (BWN) use chain belt. Maintenance is needed and noise is high. Many operators are not self-monitored

Wheels
Made of nylon grade 6.
Bravo: 3 wheels Ø 59 mm per trolley. 2 concentric + 1 eccentric for better estability.
Activa: 2 wheels Ø 59 mm per trolley, with central anti-balancing wheel
Competitors: some of them use 1 or 2 x Ø 30 mm wheels per trolley

Encoder
Magnetic encoder with detection of position, direction and speed.
Competitors: some use optic encoders: sensible to dust and humidity, must be protected against any rests of iron. Other who use magnetic do not detect the direction of movement

Independent and replaceable track rail, totally insulated

Operator’s Height
180 mm on Palma Bravo
100 mm on Activa+ (slim line)
Competitors: many of them are between 200 and 250 mm high

  Performance
Opening speed
Palma/Bravo: Open at 2 m/s (bi-parting), the HIGHEST speed in the market
Activa+: Opens at 1.4 m/s
Competitors: normally open between 1 m/s (American models) and 1.4 m/s. Only Tormax TXP can open at 2 m/s.

Closing speed and Closing force are independent.
The only operator where the Closing Speed can be adjusted independently from the Closing Force (by law between 40 and 140 Newtons).
Closing speed can be adjusted at the maximum and force at the minimum
Competitors: When any of the parameters is adjusted, the second also varies

Quick Safety stop/reverse cycle.
Due to the high performance of the motors we use, the reaction of the door to an obstruction will be much faster than any other brand. Door will open quicker.
Competitors: Most react very slow and door will open slowly

  Accessories
A terminal reserved for each accessory
On the control panel the terminals for each accessory are easily identified
If an accessory is connected to a wrong terminal or wired improperly, no damaged will occur. The control panel is self-protected.
Competitors: some need additional modules (control circuits) for each accessory and control panel may result damaged if wired improperly.
 

All accessories are continuously monitored from the control panel.

Automatic Lock
Bi-stable lock: Lock remains in the same position on the event of power failure
Can be configured to Security mode (Palma/Bravo).
Competitors: some of them use locks that change to open in case of power failure and empty batteries (Besam). Others can not be configured to Security mode

Manusa PWM radar
Only radar where sensitivity can be adjusted from the Optima Selector (Palma/Bravo only).
Competitors: in all other radars, sensitivity must be adjusted by opening the radar and adjusting the switches or potentiometer inside. Only Bea has a radar which can be operated from a remote control, but is extremely expensive.

Manusa photocells
The control circuit is integrated in the control panel
2 photocells can be configured
High rejection to sun light thanks to the filters located in the control panel.
Maximum reach: 6 meters
Competitors: most use photocells from third parties where a separated control circuit must be fixed between the photocells and the control panel.

Optima Selector
3 Functions:
To change the operating mode with 7 different positions: Open, Close, Exit Only, Automatic, Pharmacy Opening, Reduction opening 1 and 2
Displays malfunctions
To adjust basic parameters
Operating mode selectable from a remote control.
Competitors: most only let user change the operating mode to Open, Close, Exit Only and Automatic modes. Most do not have a remote control.

Manulink and Manutel for remote maintenance
Manulink: To control up to 256 doors from a remote PC, by cable
Manutel: To control door by door from a remote PC, by modem
Both systems can be used together.
Competitors: most competitors do not have this software, and if they have the price is higher.

Optional mechanical fail-safe CO-48
Door will open on the event of power failure even if batteries are empty
To comply with Australian standard AS-4085 regarding main entrance doors in buildings. Connecting the accessories properly, the door will open in case an alarm activates even if the door is in closed mode.
