Description
Genius Mistral T324 ENV 24Vdc Swing Gate Opener – 6170178
The Genius Mistral T324 ENV is a 24Vdc linear electromechanical swing gate operator designed for residential gate automation.
Featuring a 300mm stroke, continuous-duty operation and the patented ENV Virtual Encoder system, the Mistral T324 ENV provides smooth and controlled automation for individual swing gate leaves up to 3 metres long.
Its internal bronze crown wheel and steel worm screw drive provide a strong and durable mechanical transmission, while the compact linear design makes it suitable for a wide range of residential swing gate installations.
Genius Part Number: 6170178
⚙️ 24Vdc Electromechanical Drive
The Mistral T324 ENV uses a 24Vdc electric motor combined with a linear worm screw drive mechanism.
The operator provides:
- 24Vdc motor
- 35W nominal motor power
- 150 daN maximum thrust
- 300mm stroke
- Maximum speed of 2.1cm/sec
- Continuous-duty operation
The 24V system provides smooth movement and allows advanced electronic control and safety functions when paired with compatible Genius control equipment.
🧠 ENV Virtual Encoder Technology
The T324 ENV incorporates Genius/FAAC patented ENV technology.
ENV stands for Virtual Encoder and allows compatible control electronics to monitor the movement and operation of the gate without requiring a conventional physical encoder within the operator.
When correctly configured with compatible control equipment, the system supports functions including:
- Electronic obstacle detection
- Anti-crushing protection
- Movement monitoring
- Controlled opening and closing
- Opening and closing slowdown
🚪 Gate Leaves Up to 3 Metres
Genius specifies the Mistral T324 ENV for residential swing gate leaves up to 3 metres long.
For gate leaves exceeding 2.5 metres, an electric lock must be installed to ensure secure locking of the gate leaf.
Actual suitability also depends on the gate construction, weight, wind loading, hinge condition and installation geometry.
💪 150 daN Maximum Thrust
The 24V T324 ENV provides up to 150 daN of thrust.
This provides controlled linear movement for compatible residential swing gates while allowing the electronic control system to manage force and safety parameters.
↔️ 300mm Operator Stroke
The Mistral T324 ENV uses a 300mm working stroke.
Correct front and rear mounting geometry is essential to ensure the operator remains within its intended travel and achieves the required gate opening angle.
⚡ Fast 2.1cm/sec Movement
Genius specifies a maximum linear speed of 2.1cm/sec for the T324 ENV.
This is faster than the 1.6cm/sec specification of the 230V Mistral models and allows responsive residential gate operation while retaining controlled acceleration and slowdown through compatible electronics.
♾️ Continuous-Duty Operation
The Mistral T324 ENV is rated for continuous operation at 20°C.
This distinguishes the 24V T324 ENV from the 230V Mistral 300 and 400 models, which carry an S3 30% duty rating.
The continuous-duty 24V design makes the T324 ENV well suited to residential entrances requiring regular operation.
⚙️ Bronze & Steel Internal Drive
The Mistral drive mechanism incorporates:
- Bronze crown wheel
- Steel worm screw
This robust mechanical arrangement provides the reduction and linear drive required to move the gate while maintaining the irreversible/self-locking characteristics of the operator.
🔒 Irreversible / Self-Locking Design
The Mistral T324 ENV is an irreversible operator.
The mechanical drive resists gate movement when the motor is stopped, providing self-locking operation within the manufacturer’s specified gate limits.
For gate leaves over 2.5 metres, Genius requires an electric lock.
🐢 Opening & Closing Slowdown
The 24V Mistral system supports slowdown during both opening and closing.
Reducing speed toward the end of gate travel provides smoother operation and reduces abrupt mechanical loading on the gate, operator and mounting hardware.
🔓 Key-Protected Manual Release
The Mistral incorporates a lever-operated manual release protected by a personalised key.
This allows the operator to be mechanically disengaged when the gate needs to be operated manually during servicing, system faults or extended power interruptions.
🌦️ Durable Outdoor Construction
The Mistral is designed for outdoor swing gate installations.
The operator incorporates a double-layer painted aluminium body for improved durability and corrosion resistance.
A horizontal cable outlet also allows the operator to be installed relatively close to ground level without requiring the electrical cable to exit directly beneath the operator.
🏠 Designed for Residential Gates
Genius classifies the Mistral T324 ENV as a residential-use operator.
Typical applications include:
- Residential driveways
- Single swing gates
- Double swing gate systems
- Townhouses
- Shared residential entrances
- Domestic gate automation

⚠️ Please Note
This listing is for Genius part number 6170178, the Mistral T324 ENV 24Vdc swing gate operator.
The maximum specified gate leaf length for this model is 3 metres.
For gate leaves exceeding 2.5 metres, Genius specifies that an electric lock must be installed to ensure secure locking of the gate leaf.
This is the T324 ENV model with a 24Vdc motor and patented ENV Virtual Encoder functionality.
It should not be confused with the 230V Mistral 300 or the longer-stroke Mistral 400 models.
The T324 ENV does not incorporate conventional opening and closing limit switches.
Electronic control equipment, radio receiver, transmitters, photocells, electric lock and other system accessories are separate unless specifically included as part of a package.
Maximum gate dimensions are manufacturer limits and do not automatically mean every gate within those dimensions is suitable. Gate construction, weight, wind loading, hinge condition and mounting geometry must also be considered.
