BFT ARES VELOCE MERAK Control Board (Compatible with BFT Ares SV BT A500 / A1000)

BFT Ares Veloce Merak Control Unit – Replacement Control Board Compatible with BFT Veloce A500 A1000

BFT Ares Veloce Merak is an advanced electronic management board specifically designed for high-speed sliding gate systems. This control unit is manufactured to operate in full compatibility with BFT Ares SV BT A500 and BFT Ares SV A1000 model 24V DC motors. The board accepts 230V AC mains voltage on the supply side and delivers a 24V DC output to the motor; through D-Track technology, it performs real-time torque monitoring to protect the motor in the event of an obstruction. Rated at protection class IP54 and suitable for cabinet mounting, the unit operates continuously across a wide temperature range of -20°C to +60°C, maintaining maximum reliability even in environments with intensive duty cycles such as car parks, residential complex entrances, and commercial access points. Via the integrated LCD display and intuitive menu structure, parameters such as automatic closing time, soft-start/soft-stop curve, single or bi-directional passage mode, and speed settings can be adjusted; photocell, stop, start, and safety edge sensor inputs, as well as flasher, electromechanical lock, and signal lamp outputs, can all be managed directly from the board. If the existing control board fails, burns out, or cannot be restored to factory settings due to a programming error, this spare part must be installed in place of the original board.

Replacing this control board is rated at INTERMEDIATE difficulty. Since all input/output terminal connections on the board feature a standard screw-socket design, the physical installation is relatively straightforward; however, wiring must strictly follow the existing system's cable diagram, and after replacement, parameters such as D-Track torque values, deceleration distances, and automatic closing times must be recalibrated according to system conditions. For this reason, it is recommended that the procedure be carried out by an experienced automation technician; incorrect wiring or improper parameter entry may cause permanent damage to the motor driver stage.

This control unit is a fully genuine BFT spare part. It is manufactured by BFT S.p.A., headquartered in Italy, and is catalogued under stock code BFT-I700096-10001. BFT is among the globally recognised Italian manufacturers in the field of gate and barrier automation systems; all genuine spare parts are offered under the brand's quality assurance and a 2-year warranty. The use of genuine parts ensures that the system fully meets factory performance values and CE compliance requirements.
