Description
The R3 rotary arm swing gate motor remains the logical choice for applications where the gate pillar is very wide and will not accommodate the VECTOR2 linear drive system. It can handle domestic gates up to 3.5m wide per leaf weighing no more than 150kg.
The R3 also offers battery backup. The electronic controller and power supply are mounted in the MASTER motor giving the option to wall mount the operators, resulting in an installation that is greatly simplified. As with all CENTURION gate controllers, the R3 offer a wide range of useful features.
As with the sliding gate range of operators, this battery driven swing gate motor can also be adapted to operate off a solar power supply.
The smooth operator for swing gates
Features:
Smooth and reliable: The sinusoidal motion of the CENTURION R3's rotary arm ensures that, without any fancy speed control, your gate smoothly accelerates - then gradually comes to a graceful stop. Beyond just looking more professional, this fluid movement actually extends the lifetime of the gate motor. No shock loading or jerkiness means the R3 will serve you for many years to come.
Easy to install: No cutting, drilling or welding necessary. Our ingenious fully adjustable mechanical linking system makes the R3 almost too easy to install. Change the length of the drive arm to suit, then adjust the connecting arm length like you would a ski pole. The R3 does all the hard work for you.
So versatile: You can mount the R3 on a pedestal away from your gate for best locking of the system and optimum security. If you prefer the minimalist look, mount the operator to the gate pillar via a wall bracket so it's out of sight.
Safe and quiet functioning: If you live in a busy townhouse complex, the constant drone of a noisy gate motor may drive you over the edge. Thankfully, the CENTURION R3's geared DC motor is very hush-hush and won't disturb the tranquility. You'll think you're living on a quiet retreat in the country.
Rapid operation: There's nothing more annoying than a slow gate when you just want to get home. The R3 swings open at an invitingly fast pace. If you're paranoid that someone may sneak in behind you, use the Beam Autoclose feature (PIRAC)1 to set your gate to automatically close the moment you have driven in and ruin any criminal's day.

Accurate position control: Innovative internal position control makes installation easy. Sensitive anti-crushing control means that your car and your children's limbs are safe. Should the R3 detect even the tiniest obstruction, your gates will stop and immediately reopen - we wouldn't dare ruin your arrival.
Secure locking: There will always be someone who wants what you have. Fortunately, an irreversible gearset makes sure that the CENTURION R3 is locked tight. Nobody can tamper with it and get onto your property.
Proven lightning protection: Nothing's going to rain on your parade. More than 15 years worth of research has been put into the lightning and surge protection on our R3 rotary swing gate motor. Come sunshine or rain, you can rely on the R3.
Uninterrupted operation: The R3 switches seamlessly between battery and mains and can even be solar powered. You can always get in - even if the power is off. It's actually extremely difficult to stop our R Series from serving you.
Multiple operating features: Customise the R3 to your exact requirements with a number of different operating features. Whether you need a gate motor for your home or a townhouse, the R3 sw
