No. The unit is operated by a 12 volt battery located inside the control box. The batteries are trickle-charged by a transformer that plugs into a standard 110 volt outlet. The wire from that transformer to the control box is a low voltage wire that can be up to 1000' long. For longer distances, the 110 volt electric would have to be installed closer to the gate or solar panels can be purchased to recharge the battery.

All of the models are available in 220 volt for those countries that require it. We have shipped to many countries outside of the US and Canada. These are normally shipped via FedEx International Economy. They guarantee that delivery will occur within a week of shpment, but if space is available on earlier flights it will arrive sooner. For example, a recent shipment to Germany was delivered in 3 days from the date of order.

this time Eye Saver is not sold in Europe. Westinghouse Lighting is currently reviewing this option. (back to top)

Different countries have different electrical output from the wall sockets in their homes and businesses. Here in the U.S. it's 120 volts. In Europe, it's 220 volts. If you don't know what voltage to choose, you may consult this map or this list (scroll down for list).

If you have 220 Volt Wiring, you will either need to install a transformer that is compatible with 110V wiring, or purchase a special fan! Although some of our fans are available in 220 Volt options, the individual models are not specifically indicated so on our site at this time. If you require a 220Volt fan, please send us an email with details about your requirements and we will gladly respond to you with some great options.

Absolutely, and you will save a lot in the process! You will need to contact us for that, for special ordering and prices.

Although most of the electricity is provided by Diesel/Generator Sets, the power is stable at 110 Volts A.C., which is the same voltage as in the United States.

No you cannot connect an American 220 Volt Dryer or other 220 volt American products to a Transformer. Voltage Transformers are made to convert single phase 110 or 220 volt. American 220 volt consists of 2 phase of 110 volt and European 220 volt consists of 1 phase of 220 volt.

Simply put, they are all the same. The actual voltage is typically between 117 volts and 124 volts; 110, 115, and 120 (and 220, 230, and 240) are just names that come out of history.

A welder, cutting torch, and basic hand tools including 3/4" wrenches and a level will be needed to install the basic unit.

No, we sell EU legal scanners (otherwise the scanners would be blocked) In Europe we use 220/230 volt, in the USA 110 volt is used. So the charger we have will not work at all. A 110 volt is not supplied, so we can not help you with this. But in all kind of shops in your neighborhood you can buy a 110 volt charger.

Yes. Fully clad gates can catch the wind, so Gate Openers must be strong enough to push through the extra resistance, but sensitive enough to re-open if an obstacle in delectated.

No you cannot connect and American 220 Volt dryer to a transformer. VOltage transformers are made to convert single phase 110 or 220 volt. American 220 volt consists of 2 phase of 110 volt and European 220 volt consists of 1 phase of 220 volt.

No, not at this time. International builders usually replace the 110VAC wall-mounted supply with a locally acquired 220V equivalent. Our kits can be ordered with or without this power supply (look for the "international version" on the product pages). If you're not sure what specs would be required for a specific replacement we're happy to help.

Theoretically, it doesn't make any difference. However, there is a difference is the amount of power lost in the supply wiring. All things being equal, a 110V motor will lose 4 times more power in the house wiring than a 220V motor. This also means that the startup surge loss will be less, and the motor will get to speed quicker with 220V. And in some circumstances, the smaller power loss will lead to longer motor life.

To change the analyzer from 220VAC to 110VAC, refer to the drawing C67791; under the note section 3, from 3.1 through 3.13 is the procedure.

It will hold it closed firmly, but not securely. Someone could push hard enough to break the actuator arm or attaching hardware. Purchase the optional GTO electric lock for secure locking.

No. See the chart at the bottom of the GTO start page for weight and gate width limits for each operator. Solid wood or other solid gates should use the PRO4000XL for the extra power needed during windy conditions. The slide gate operator is not recommended for the type of slide gate that uses a leading roller wheel on the ground and doesn't have a counter-balance to hook the back side of the chain to the gate in order to close the gate completely.

It will hold it closed firmly, but not securely. Someone could push hard enough to break the actuator arm or attaching hardware. Purchase the optional GTO electric lock for secure locking. You need to purchase the column mount adapter. Two are required per operator arm. This will adapt your operator for column or square post mounting.
