Usage
The Upgrade Card Full Energy is designed for use with a single Dorma ED 250 swing door operator, enabling full-energy mode to maximize the speed and torque of automatic hinged door systems in commercial or public buildings.
Advantages
- Unlocks the complete setting range for opening and closing speeds, allowing doors to open up to 60° per second.
- Permits full adjustment of opening and closing torque up to 150 Nm (150 N at the closing edge), ensuring reliable operation even under challenging conditions.
- Plug-in installation extends system functionality instantly without complex wiring or software updates.
- Status LEDs provide clear visual feedback on card operation for easier diagnostics and commissioning.
- The enhanced performance requires additional safety sensors on doors operating in full-energy mode, which may increase installation complexity but improves user safety.
Specifications
- Design & Materials: Plug-in upgrade card; transparent blue housing identifies Full Energy version[4][5]. Compatible only with ED 250 operators equipped with a designated slot for upgrade cards[6].
- Durability & Standards: Supports compliance with EN16005 / ANSI/BHMA A156.10 when installed properly; allows configuration adjustments within manufacturer’s specified lifecycle (up to one million cycles)[3][5].
- Performance: Increases maximum door opening speed (up to 60°/sec) and permits torque settings up to max. rated force (typically up to 150 Nm / 150 N)[4][5][10]. For doors weighing up to 400 kg and widths from 700 mm up to 1,600 mm[1][3]. The hold-open time can be set between 0–30 seconds by default; extended periods possible via additional modules[3].[5]
- Differentiating Features: Activates wind load control function for stable movement under air pressure variations. Integrates seamlessly into Dorma’s modular operator platform—can be removed or replaced as system requirements change.[1][6]
How it works
Insert the Upgrade Card into the dedicated slot on an ED 250 unit. Once installed, it unlocks advanced parameters in the drive controller—enabling higher speeds, greater force settings, wind load compensation, and optimized performance suited for high-traffic environments.
