Platinum BLSW814 Brushless Swing Gate Operator

Brushless DC Swing Gate Automation with Battery Backup and Solar Support

The Platinum Access BLSW814 Swing Gate Operator is a heavy-duty brushless DC operator designed for residential and commercial vehicular swing gates. It supports gates up to 800 lb and 14 ft long, combining a 24 VDC continuous-duty motor with built-in battery backup, soft start and soft stop, electronic obstruction sensing, and solar capability.

The BLSW814 uses Platinum Access's control board with input/output LEDs and an electronic reversing sensor built directly into the controller. Dynamic Speed Control maintains consistent gate movement as operating conditions change, while automatic learning and self-synchronization support primary/secondary configurations when a second compatible operator is used.

Two 12V 7Ah batteries provide the operator's built-in 24 VDC backup system. The BLSW814 also accepts direct solar input, and Platinum's Solar Priority function can operate the gate from available solar energy rather than drawing from the batteries when the solar system is appropriately sized and sufficient sunlight is available.

Conclusion

The Platinum Access BLSW814 is designed for swing gate installations that benefit from brushless DC operation, built-in battery backup, solar compatibility, and flexible primary/secondary control. Its 800 lb and 14 ft published gate limits make it suitable for residential communities, commercial entrances, and other vehicular access points using appropriately sized swing gates.

For dual swing gates, a second compatible operator can be synchronized through the BLSW814 control system, with adjustable leaf delay available when one gate needs to open or close in a specific sequence.
