Genesys Electrical Box

OVERVIEW

The Genesys electrical box controls the operation of the bifold door, connecting the up/down/stop controller to the bifold door motor. It includes open-close limit switches, thermal overloads, fuses, and our innovative circuit board.

The circuit board is the center of it all. It offers on-board diagnostics, plug-n-play installation on future door upgrades, built in emergency overrides, and other features that make the Diamond door a convenient door option.

The open-close limit switches determine how far the door opens and closes. We pre-set the closed limit switch in-factory, while the open limit switch requires its final adjustments once the door is installed. These instructions can be found in the electrical manual.

Thermal overloads provide protection for the door’s electrical components. If the overloads detect a large amperage draw, they cut off the power to the door to avoid damage. These overloads automatically reset within 30 seconds if an overload occurs.

We install the wiring and electrical components for your door in-factory, including a junction box at the top of the door. This makes connecting to your building’s electrical system hassle-free. Diamond doors require no onsite electrical connections on the door frame and you can get your door up and running quickly and efficiently.

The Genesys electrical box can be connected to single phase 230V, three phase 208V, and three phase 460V, depending on the electrical power available on your building site.

FAQ

Do I need to do any wiring onsite?
The wiring and electrical components for your bifold doors are installed in-factory, including a junction box at the top of the door for hassle-free connection to your building’s electrical system. You do not need to do any wiring on your door, but you will need to connect the door’s electrical system to your building.
Do I need an inspection after installing the door?
Diamond doors are UL325 certified, which means that you will not need an inspection of the door after installing it. However, we recommend checking your local building codes to see whether an inspection is required for your building.
What do I do if something goes wrong with the electrical components or wiring?
The Genesys electrical box includes a circuit board with onboard diagnostics. This tool helps you troubleshoot any electrical issues your door may be experiencing. We have created a detailed troubleshooting guide to walk you through the process. If you need further assistance, our service team is also available by phone or email.
What kind of power supply do I need to run the door?
The Genesys electrical box can be connected to single phase 230V, three phase 208V, and three phase 460V, depending on the electrical power available on your building site.
What is a UL325 certification?
UL325 certification is a safety standard that oversees automatic door and gate systems (along with a few other things). It focuses on minimizing the risk of injury when using the door/gate system by enforcing the use of safety devices on the system. Without the UL325 certification (or similar), doors, gates, etc must be fully supervised during use and can not be automated.
