When it comes to maximizing your gym space no one does it better than GARED • Our engineers have kept with our history of innovation and expanding
customer choice with the 4050 CENTER-DRIVE CURTAIN SYSTEM • The CENTER DRIVE offers the same great features of our Top Roll Curtain such
as maximum clearance when in the stored position, operation without belts, cables, or exposed wires, but goes a step further by eliminating the need for large
rollers which require extensive overhead structure attachment • Our Center Drive is a unique design that uses internal tubular motors and a counterweight that
eliminates the need for costly extension arms with straps connected at the upper structure to resist the torque of the motor • GARED’S CENTER DRIVE
also utilizes a larger drive tube raising and lowering the curtain 25% faster than the competition • Whether it’s speed, clearance, or aesthetics you’re looking for,
the CENTER DRIVE has it all!
FEATURES:
MATERIAL: Lower half can be either 19 or 22 oz. polyester reinforced, fire retardant and mildew resistant vinyl fabric • Seams are electronically welded with
a full contact weld • A padded pocket is formed in bottom edge of curtain to accommodate a 1.9” O.D. bottom batten while a similar pocket of vinyl or mesh
houses the top batten of the same size • Upper half of curtain is comprised of 9 oz. vinyl coated polyester mesh.
DRIVE STRUCTURE: Depending on the curtain size, it is operated by one or two internal tubular motors (120 volt, 60 hertz, single phase) • Each motor
has a max torque of 700 inch pounds with a speed of 14 rpm • Each motor is equipped with integral up and down limit switches with locking push buttons and
electromagnetic disk brakes for smooth and accurate stop without slippage and allows full braking power in the event of power failure • The 4” O.D. drive tube is
affixed in center of curtain allowing for increased speed of operation.
INTERNAL MOTOR SYSTEM
• Clean look with no wires or cables
exposed
• Internal driveshaft motors enable lower
power requirement and lower torque
to move with similar speed as standard
external motors
• Standard motors pull 15 amps, ours
only 3.5 amps
• Internal motors allow for larger
variation of building configurations with
space constraints
• Used on Models 4050, 4040XL
TORQUE COUNTER WEIGHT
GARED’s torque counter-weight
feature is new technology which does
not require any connection to the
structure to resist the torque of the
motors providing a much cleaner and
less complicated installation than the
competition • Once positioned in the
drive tube and attached to the motor,
no belts, structure attachments or
further adjustments are required.
