Description
The FAAC E034 24Vdc Swing Gate Controller is FAAC’s latest-generation electronic control system designed for compatible 24Vdc swing gate automation systems.
Designed to control one or two 24Vdc electromechanical gate operators, the E034 combines advanced motor management, adjustable speed and force, virtual encoder technology, BUS 2easy accessory integration and modern connectivity options in a versatile control platform.
Suitable for new installations and compatible control system upgrades, the E034 provides an advanced solution for residential, commercial and compatible swing gate automation applications.
⚙️ Advanced 24Vdc Swing Gate Control
The FAAC E034 is designed specifically to control one or two compatible 24Vdc electromechanical swing gate operators.
The controller acts as the central electronic management system for the automatic gate, coordinating motor movement, safety devices, access controls, radio equipment and other compatible accessories.
It can be configured for:
- Single swing gate installations
- Double swing gate installations
- Residential automatic gates
- Commercial access applications
- New FAAC automation systems
- Compatible existing FAAC system upgrades
🚪 Control for One or Two Gate Operators
The E034 can operate either one or two compatible 24Vdc gate motors.
With a maximum motor capacity of 340W total, or up to 170W per motor, the controller provides substantial capacity for compatible FAAC 24V swing gate automation systems.
For double swing gates, the controller coordinates the movement of both gate leaves according to the programmed operating parameters.
🎯 Advanced Motor Control
One of the major features of the E034 is its advanced motor control system.
Important operating parameters can be adjusted to suit the characteristics of the individual gate installation, including:
- Motor speed
- Motor force
- Encoder sensitivity
- Opening and closing behaviour
- Slowdown characteristics
This allows the installer to configure the automation according to the size, weight and mechanical characteristics of the gate.
🧠 Virtual Encoder Technology
The FAAC E034 incorporates advanced motor monitoring and virtual encoder functionality for compatible applications.
This allows the controller to monitor motor behaviour during gate movement and provide more precise management of operating force and obstacle detection.
The ability to adjust encoder sensitivity provides additional flexibility when commissioning the system for different gate sizes and operating conditions.
🛑 Adjustable Obstacle Detection
The E034’s advanced motor control helps the system detect changes in resistance while the gate is moving.
Obstacle detection sensitivity can be configured according to the requirements of the installation, helping the controller respond appropriately when abnormal resistance is encountered.
This operates alongside correctly installed safety devices to provide a comprehensive automatic gate safety system.
🛡️ BUS 2easy Safety & Accessory Integration
The FAAC E034 incorporates FAAC BUS 2easy technology for compatible safety and control accessories.
BUS 2easy allows compatible devices to communicate with the control system using simplified two-wire connections.
Compatible BUS devices can include:
- FAAC BUS photocells
- Safety devices
- Control devices
- Compatible radio equipment
- Sensitive edge interfaces
The E034 provides up to 400mA for compatible BUS 2easy accessories.
🔌 Traditional Safety Device Compatibility
Where traditional hardwired safety devices are required, the E034 can be used with the compatible FAAC BUS 2easy XIB Interface.
The XIB interface provides dedicated opening and closing safety inputs while retaining the functionality of the BUS 2easy system.
This provides additional flexibility when incorporating the E034 into new or existing gate automation installations.
📡 FAAC Radio System Compatibility
The E034 provides an integrated radio connection for compatible FAAC receiver modules.
The controller supports compatible FAAC radio technologies through the appropriate plug-in module, including:
- FAAC FDS
- FAAC SLH
- FAAC RC
- FAAC DS
This provides flexibility when incorporating the E034 into both new FAAC radio systems and compatible existing installations.
📱 Simply Connect Compatibility
The FAAC E034 supports FAAC Simply Connect, providing additional connectivity and remote management capabilities when the appropriate Simply Connect module and configuration are used.
Simply Connect can provide installers and authorised users with additional options for managing and configuring compatible automation systems.
This makes the E034 well suited to modern connected gate automation installations.
💻 Easy Onboard Programming
The E034 features an onboard display and programming buttons, allowing the controller to be configured directly at the installation.
The simplified user interface provides access to programming functions and system parameters without requiring separate programming equipment for normal commissioning.
The display and onboard LEDs also provide diagnostic information, helping technicians identify system status and faults during installation and servicing.
⚡ Low Energy Consumption
The FAAC E034 has been designed with energy efficiency in mind.
Standard standby consumption is approximately 4.4W when the board is supplied within the appropriate enclosure.
When fitted with the optional FAAC XLC low-consumption module, standby consumption can be reduced to approximately 0.5W for a non-connected system.
When used with XLC and Simply Connect, standby consumption is approximately 2W.
🔋 Battery Backup & Alternative Power Options
The E034 platform supports compatible backup battery and alternative energy configurations.
When used with the appropriate FAAC equipment, the system can incorporate battery backup to maintain gate operation during a mains power failure.
The E034 is also designed to support compatible alternative energy arrangements, including appropriately configured solar-powered gate automation systems.
🔐 Access Control & Accessory Integration
The E034 can form the central controller for a complete automatic gate and access control system.
Depending on the installation, compatible equipment may include:
- Remote control receivers
- Handheld transmitters
- Key switches
- Push buttons
- Intercom systems
- Access control systems
- Photocells
- Safety devices
- Electric locks
- Flashing warning lights
- Other compatible FAAC accessories
A programmable output is also available for interfacing the controller with external devices according to the requirements of the installation.
🔄 Ideal for New Installations & Control Upgrades
The FAAC E034 is suitable for new 24Vdc swing gate installations as well as compatible upgrades to existing FAAC automation systems.
Its combination of modern motor control, BUS 2easy, advanced programming and connectivity makes it particularly useful when modernising an older FAAC control system.
It is ideal for:
- New FAAC 24Vdc swing gate systems
- Single swing gate installations
- Double swing gate installations
- Replacement of compatible older FAAC controllers
- Automation system upgrades
- Residential gate automation

🔧 Compatible FAAC 24V Operators
The E034 is designed for use with compatible FAAC 24Vdc electromechanical swing gate operators.
FAAC currently specifies the E034 for applications including operators such as the 392 C and identifies it as a compatible control unit for other 24V platforms including the S2500I and S418.
The correct controller configuration should always be confirmed for the specific operator and installation.
🔌 Professional Installation Recommended
The FAAC E034 is a programmable gate automation controller and requires correct electrical installation, configuration and commissioning.
Motor parameters, safety equipment, operating logic, accessories and other functions must be correctly configured according to the individual gate system.
Installation should therefore be carried out by a suitably experienced gate automation technician.
