Direct answer: The Eagle 1000 FR is a residential/light-commercial sliding-gate operator for gates up to 27 feet and 600 pounds. It uses a 1/2 HP continuous-duty 115 VAC motor and a foot-release mechanism so the gate can be pushed open during a power outage after the operator is disengaged.
What changes the answer
The published 27-foot and 600-pound limits are maximum ratings. The gate still needs to roll freely, be installed correctly, and use the required safety devices. This AC model is not listed as solar-ready by Eagle; the Eagle 1000 DC is a separate model.
