6006 Swing Gate Operator

Gate Mounted, Low Voltage, Compact Design

DKS 6006 Swing Gate Operator offers convenience and reliability in a compact, aesthetic design.  This Operator mounts directly to your gate and pilaster, simplifying installation and not requiring concrete mounting pads.  The screw-driven action is powered by a 24 Volt DC motor, eliminating the worry over hydraulic leaks, check valves or pumps.  Built-in no-contact magnetic limit switches precisely control the start / stop speed of the operator, all powered by a microprocessor control board.

The 6006 operator operates on 24 Volt DC power and features built-in limit switches that precisely control the start / stop speed, and travel of your gate. The microprocessor-based electronic control board provides many advanced features typically not found in operators in this class. The control box can be powered by 120 Volt AC, which is then converted to 24 Volt DC to power the operator and control board. Two 120 Volt control boxes are available to choose from, Deluxe and Standard. The Deluxe control box includes three 120 VAC outlets to power accessory transformers. Both include 3.5 Ah (Amp Hour) batteries for backup power operation. You can also select our Solar Powered Control Box, which eliminates the need for high-voltage power runs.
