Sliding gate operator FAAC Cyclo C720 24V for up to 400 kg gates

FAAC Cyclo C720 24V is a sliding gate operator engineered for residential and light-commercial applications, capable of reliably moving sliding gates weighing up to 400 kg. The unit integrates a 24V motor drive with mechanical coupling to a gate rack to provide automated opening and closing of single sliding leaves. Designed for daily use in access control systems, the Cyclo C720 supports safe and consistent gate movement while fitting common installation layouts for drive-through and pedestrian access points.

Advantages

The Cyclo C720 offers a compact electromechanical drive that balances torque and smooth operation for medium-weight gates. Its 24V power supply allows integration with low-voltage control systems and enables connection to standard access control accessories. Mechanical coupling to the rack ensures direct transmission of motion and minimizes slippage. The design focuses on durability for frequent cycles and straightforward installation and maintenance procedures.

Suitable for

• Residential sliding gates up to 400 kg
• Small commercial entrances with moderate traffic
• Retrofitting manual gates to automated operation
• Access control systems requiring low-voltage gate drives

Key specifications

• Rated gate weight capacity: up to 400 kg
• Operating voltage: 24 V DC
• Drive type: electromechanical sliding gate operator with rack engagement
• Application: single-leaf sliding gates
• Intended use: residential and light-commercial access control

How to use

Install the Cyclo C720 on a rigid gate foundation with the appropriate rack positioned to engage the motor pinion. Connect the unit to a compatible 24V power supply and to control devices such as a push-button, remote control receiver, or access control panel following the manufacturer's wiring diagram. Adjust mechanical end-stops and limit settings to define the fully open and closed positions. Regularly check gear engagement, rack alignment, and electrical connections to maintain consistent operation.

Usage recommendations

Use the Cyclo C720 with a proper safety system including photocells or edge detectors to prevent entrapment. Match the drive rack pitch and strength to the gate weight and expected cycle frequency. For installations with high traffic or heavier gates, consider selecting a higher-capacity drive. Schedule periodic inspections and lubrication of mechanical parts and verify the integrity of electrical connections to extend service life.
