Record USA SimpleSwing Heavy Duty Surface Mounted Electromechanical Door Operator, 36" Header, Slide Track Arm Standard with Positive Stop, Push Side Mounted, Up to 48" Door, 120 Deg. Swing, Field Reversible

Two different numbers, and it decides your arm choice. With the slide track arm the door opens to 90 degrees. With the standard arm it opens to 120 degrees. If you need the leaf swung back past 90 (moving beds, carts, or gurneys through), specify the standard arm. If you want the tighter, cleaner track look against the door and 90 degrees is enough clearance, the slide track arm with positive stop is the one.

It ships LHR as the standard configuration but it is field reversible, so one unit covers either hand. You set the hand during installation rather than ordering a left and a right unit, which is useful if you are stocking spares for a building with openings swinging both ways.

Yes, it is a low energy operator built to ANSI/BHMA 156.19 and listed to UL 325 and UL 228. That combination is what a facility needs for a push-plate actuated ADA-style entrance rather than a full power automatic door, which falls under a different standard and requires guide rails and sensors.

This configuration is push side mounted, meaning the header goes on the side the door swings away from and the arm pushes the leaf open. That is the common setup for an interior door swinging into a corridor or a vestibule. If your only available mounting surface is on the pull side, you need a pull side arm configuration instead of this one.

Two finishes: 689 clear/aluminum and 710 dark bronze. Clear aluminum matches most standard mill-finish or clear anodized storefront framing, and 710 dark bronze pairs with dark bronze anodized entrances, which is the common choice on older commercial and hospitality fronts.

It is a heavy duty commercial unit, not a residential or light-duty operator. Record specifies the SS8200 for almost any interior or exterior application, it runs a 1/4 hp motor, and its temperature range spans -40F to +140F. For a property manager standardizing across a portfolio of entrances, that means one operator model can cover both a lobby vestibule and an exterior side entrance.

The positive stop built into the slide track arm limits the door at the end of its 90 degree travel, so the leaf cannot be pushed past the open position and strain the arm or the frame. On an opening with no floor stop or wall bumper, that stop is doing the overtravel protection, which matters on a door the public pushes on all day.
