Description
The FAAC A951 Swing Door Operator is a compact electromechanical automatic door operator designed for internal pedestrian swing doors where smooth, quiet and reliable automatic operation is required.
Designed for door leaves up to 1100mm wide and weighing up to 100kg, the A951 combines a 24V DC electromechanical drive with encoder technology, flexible activation options and continuous-duty operation.
Its compact design makes it an excellent solution for commercial, residential, accessibility and internal automatic door applications where space is limited and discreet automation is preferred.
🚪 Automatic Operation for Internal Swing Doors
The FAAC A951 is specifically designed to automate internal pedestrian swing doors.
Once installed, the operator automatically controls the opening and closing movement of the door, providing convenient hands-free or controlled access depending on the activation devices installed.
The A951 can be activated using compatible:
- Push buttons
- Touchless sensors
- Automatic sensors
- Remote controls
- Access control systems
- Other compatible activation devices
This makes the A951 suitable for a wide range of automatic pedestrian door applications.
⚙️ Smooth & Quiet Operation
The A951 is designed to provide smooth and quiet movement during both opening and closing.
Its 24V DC electromechanical drive provides controlled operation, making the system particularly well suited to internal environments where excessive operating noise would be undesirable.
This makes the A951 an excellent choice for:
- Offices
- Medical facilities
- Commercial buildings
- Internal access doors
- Apartment and residential buildings
- Accessible entrances
- Internal pedestrian access points
💪 Doors Up to 100kg
Despite its compact size, the FAAC A951 can automate compatible door leaves weighing up to 100kg.
For a door leaf up to 1100mm wide, the operator is rated for a maximum leaf weight of 100kg.
This provides substantial operating capacity for a compact internal automatic swing door operator.
Correct door balance, hinges and overall mechanical condition remain important when selecting and installing an automatic door operator.
📐 Compact & Flexible Installation
The FAAC A951 has been designed to provide flexibility when integrating automatic operation into an existing or new pedestrian door.
The operator can be installed on the lintel or directly onto the door structure depending on the required configuration.
Its compact construction helps minimise the visual impact of the automation system while allowing automatic operation to be incorporated into a wide range of internal door installations.
🔄 Push or Pull Door Configurations
The FAAC A951 can be configured with different arm arrangements depending on the door and installation requirements.
Compatible arm options allow the operator to be used in push or pull applications, providing flexibility when automating different internal swing door configurations.
The correct arm should be selected according to the mounting position, direction of door travel and available installation space.
👥 Single or Double Door Applications
The A951 is suitable for both single-leaf and compatible double-leaf automatic door installations.
For double-leaf entrances, two A951 operators can be configured in a Primary / Secondary arrangement to coordinate the operation of both door leaves.
This allows the A951 platform to be used across a wider range of pedestrian entrance configurations.
♿ Ideal for Accessible Entrances
Automatic swing door operation can significantly improve accessibility by reducing the physical effort required to open a pedestrian door.
When combined with appropriate activation devices, the A951 can allow a door to be opened using a push button, touchless sensor or other compatible access device.
This makes it particularly suitable for accessible internal entrances and applications where easier pedestrian access is required.
🛡️ Designed with Automatic Door Safety in Mind
The FAAC A951 is designed for use as part of a correctly configured automatic pedestrian door system.
FAAC states that the A951 is manufactured in compliance with EN16005 and can operate in low-energy applications or manage compatible monitored safety sensors.
Depending on the installation requirements, appropriate safety and activation sensors can be incorporated into the automatic door system.
All safety devices should be selected, positioned and configured according to the individual door application and applicable requirements.
🔌 24V DC Electromechanical Drive
The A951 uses an electromechanical 24V DC drive unit with encoder feedback.
Encoder technology allows the operator to monitor door movement and provides the control system with accurate information about the position and movement of the door during operation.
The operator itself is supplied from a 230V power source and has a rated absorbed power of 100W.
🔁 Continuous-Duty Operation
The FAAC A951 is designed for continuous-duty operation, making it suitable for pedestrian doors that may experience regular use throughout the day.
This makes it particularly useful in commercial and public-facing environments where the automatic door may operate considerably more frequently than a typical residential entrance.
The combination of continuous-duty capability and smooth operation makes the A951 a practical solution for frequently used internal pedestrian doors.
🔐 Access Control Integration
The FAAC A951 can form part of a larger pedestrian access control system.
Depending on the installation, the automatic door can be activated or controlled through compatible devices such as:
- Access control readers
- Push buttons
- Touchless activation sensors
- Remote controls
- Key switches
- Intercom systems
- Building access systems
This allows the A951 to provide automatic door operation while working alongside the access requirements of the building.
🧰 Ideal for New & Existing Doors
The FAAC A951 can be incorporated into new pedestrian door installations or used to automate suitable existing internal swing doors.
For existing doors, the compact operator provides a practical way to add automatic functionality without necessarily replacing the complete door.
The existing door should be inspected before installation to ensure the hinges, frame, door leaf and other mechanical components are suitable for automatic operation.
