Description
The FAAC 422 Slow CBAC is a hydraulic linear swing gate operator designed for residential and light commercial installations requiring controlled and deliberate gate movement. It is suitable for swing gate leaves up to approximately 3 metres in length, depending on gate weight and installation geometry.
Unlike electromechanical operators, the FAAC 422 Slow CBAC uses a sealed hydraulic drive system. This design delivers consistent force and smooth motion, even on heavier gates or installations with frequent operation.
The slow operating speed provides enhanced control during opening and closing. As a result, the system reduces impact stress on hinges, mounting brackets and gate structures. In addition, the hydraulic mechanism absorbs shock loads more effectively than screw-driven systems.
The FAAC 422 Slow CBAC integrates with FAAC control boards to provide adjustable operating logic and safety configuration. When paired with safety accessories such as photocells and edge protection, it delivers reliable and secure gate automation.
The durable aluminium body and sealed hydraulic assembly ensure long-term performance in demanding residential and light commercial environments.
