Description
The CAME Frog AE 230v Swing Gate Kit (frequently indexed under package codes like 8K01MI-005 or 8K01MI-0595) is an industry-standard, underground dual-leaf electric gate automation system.
By pairing robust 230V AC motors (FROG-AE) with built-in electronic encoders, this kit delivers the massive crushing and driving torque of mains-powered motors alongside the sophisticated safety features typically reserved for low-voltage setups. It is a favorite choice for large, heavy residential gates or structural estate entrances where visible automation would spoil the clean look of the architecture.
Core Engineering & Safety Features
-
Mains Power with Encoder Safety: The “E” designation signifies built-in optical path encoders. While traditional 230V gates rely strictly on timers, this system monitors the motor’s revolution down to the millimeter. If the gate touches a vehicle, pedestrian, or obstacle, the control board senses the change and instantly reverses the gate’s direction.
-
Completely Invisible Profile: Installed completely flush inside sub-driveway foundation boxes, the mechanical drive linkage acts directly as the bottom pivot hinge for the gate. The structural face of your custom timber or wrought-iron gates remains completely clean and clutter-free.
-
No Central Gate Stops Needed: Built-in mechanical travel stops inside the foundation box mean the installer can mechanically set the open and close limits. This removes the need for tripping hazards or ugly metal stop blocks anchored into the center of your driveway.
-
Rugged Waterproof Enclosure: The motor core is housed in an IP67-rated, dust-tight, and submersible cast-aluminum casing, allowing it to survive flooding and heavy rain inside the ground box.
