NICE ERA ELAC LED Gate Flashing Light UAE

NICE ELAC 90–240 VAC Warning Light with Integrated Aerial

The NICE ERA ELAC LED Flashing Light is a genuine NICE visual warning device designed for compatible automatic gates, parking barriers and garage-door automation systems.

The ELAC provides a highly visible flashing signal while the automation is operating, helping alert drivers, pedestrians, visitors and site personnel that a gate, barrier or door is moving.

The ELAC is the high-voltage version of the NICE ERA Light family, operating from 90–240 VAC at 50/60 Hz. It uses a white LED light source, incorporates its own flashing circuit and includes an integrated 433.92 MHz aerial for compatible NICE radio installations.

90–240 VAC Wide-Range Power Supply

The NICE ELAC is designed for a wide mains-voltage range of 90–240 VAC at 50/60 Hz.

This is one of the most important differences between ELAC and the low-voltage ELDC version.

The wide voltage range also makes ELAC suitable for different electrical standards and compatible automation control units providing the appropriate high-voltage flashing-light output.

Do Not List ELAC as Only 230V

Although ELAC is often marketed as a 220V or 230V flashing light, the official NICE specification is broader:

90–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz

For SEO, the term “230V gate flashing light” can still be used naturally because it is relevant to UAE customers, but the technical table should show the full official range.

Maximum 36 mA Current Draw

NICE specifies a maximum current consumption of approximately 36 mA with the LED continuously illuminated.

Maximum 5 W Power

The ELAC consumes a maximum of approximately 5 W.

The LED design provides significantly lower power consumption than older traditional flashing lamps.

Energy-Efficient LED Technology

NICE's ERA Light literature states that ELAC and ELDC can use around 80% less power than traditional flashing lights thanks to LED technology.

This provides efficient visual signalling with reduced electrical consumption.

White LED Warning Light

The ELAC uses a white LED light source.

The outer lamp housing provides the visible warning effect while the LED gives efficient and long-lasting illumination.

Built-In Flashing Circuit

The ELAC has an internal flashing circuit.

This means it does not require an external electronic flasher to create its standard flashing pattern when connected to the correct supply.

33% Maximum Operating Cycle

NICE specifies a maximum operating cycle of:

• 5 seconds ON
• 10 seconds OFF
• 33% maximum duty cycle

This is the flashing-light operating specification and should not be confused with the gate motor's duty cycle.

Integrated 433.92 MHz Aerial

The NICE ERA ELAC includes an integrated 433.92 MHz aerial.

Where the automation system uses a compatible NICE 433.92 MHz radio receiver, the ELAC aerial can be connected to provide an elevated antenna position.

Integrated Aerial Is Not a Radio Receiver

The ELAC does not store remote controls and does not decode radio commands by itself.

The integrated aerial is simply an antenna.

The installed radio receiver determines:

• Remote-control compatibility
• Radio protocol
• Rolling-code format
• Memory capacity
• Programming procedure

433.92 MHz Does Not Guarantee Remote Compatibility

The integrated aerial is designed around 433.92 MHz radio installations, but the presence of a 433.92 MHz antenna does not mean every 433.92 MHz remote is compatible.

Radio compatibility depends on the receiver and transmitter protocol.

Potential Remote-Range Improvement

Installing the aerial higher and away from a metal control cabinet can provide a more favourable radio reception position.

However, do not advertise a guaranteed increase in remote-control range. Actual performance depends on:

• Receiver type
• Remote transmitter
• Antenna cable
• Buildings and walls
• Metal structures
• Radio interference
• Installation height

IP44 Outdoor Protection

The NICE ELAC has an official IP44 protection rating.

This makes it suitable for correctly installed outdoor automation applications.

IP44 should not be described as waterproof or submersible.

UAE Outdoor Installation

For installations in Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and other UAE locations, ensure:

• Correct cable entry sealing
• Secure mounting
• No standing water around the electrical connection
• Protection from direct physical impact
• Operation within the specified temperature range

Operating Temperature

The official NICE operating range is -20°C to +50°C.

Do not claim unlimited performance under extreme UAE heat beyond this manufacturer specification.

132 × 72 × 155 mm Dimensions

The ELAC measures approximately 132 × 72 × 155 mm.

The compact ERA Light design is suitable for mounting on gate pillars, walls, columns and compatible barrier installations.

Versatile Mounting

NICE describes ERA Light as versatile and suitable for mounting on:

• Flat surfaces
• Columns
• Walls

Choose a position that provides good visibility while keeping wiring secure.

Gate Movement Warning

The primary role of ELAC is to provide a clear visual warning during automation operation.

This helps improve awareness for:

• Drivers
• Pedestrians
• Visitors
• Security personnel
• Residents

ELAC Does Not Detect Obstacles

The ELAC is a visual signalling accessory only.

It does not detect vehicles, people or objects.

Obstacle and vehicle detection require suitable devices such as:

• Photocells
• Safety edges
• Vehicle loop detectors
• Approved obstacle-detection systems

ELAC Does Not Make a Gate Safe by Itself

The flashing light can form part of the overall safety and signalling arrangement, but it should not be described as making an automation compliant by itself.

Correct installation, force settings, photocells, safety devices and control-unit programming remain important.

Sliding Gate Applications

The NICE ELAC can be used with compatible sliding gate systems whose control units provide the correct high-voltage flashing-light output.

Typical applications include:

• Villa gates
• Residential compounds
• Warehouse gates
• Commercial entrances
• Industrial access gates

Swing Gate Applications

The ELAC can also be installed with compatible swing gate automation systems.

Always select the flashing-light model according to the control unit output voltage, not merely according to the motor model.

Parking Barrier Applications

The ELAC can be used as a visual warning lamp for compatible parking and road-barrier automation where the control unit provides the correct mains-voltage flashing output.

Garage Door Applications

NICE includes garage-door automation among the applications for its flashing-light range.

Compatibility must be confirmed against the exact garage-door control unit.

Choose ELAC or ELDC According to Controller Output

This is the most important selection rule:

ELAC = 90–240 VAC

ELDC = 12–36 VDC

Do not interchange the two models without checking the control unit's flashing-light output.

ELAC for 230V Gate Controllers

Where a compatible automation control unit provides a 230V AC flashing-light output, ELAC is generally the appropriate ERA Light version.

Always verify the exact controller manual before wiring.

Do Not Connect ELAC to a 24V FLASH Output

If a control board only provides a low-voltage 24V flashing-light output, the ELAC is not the correct direct lamp.

Use the correct low-voltage model such as ELDC where compatible.

Do Not Connect ELDC to a 230V Output

Likewise, the low-voltage ELDC must not be directly connected to a 230V flashing-light output.

FLASH Output Connection

The ELAC should be connected only to a compatible control unit output intended for a mains-voltage flashing light.

Depending on the controller, the terminal may be labelled:

• FLASH
• FLASHING LIGHT
• LAMP
• WARNING LIGHT

Always verify the terminal voltage before installation.

Pre-Flashing Function

Some NICE control units can activate the flashing lamp before the gate begins moving.

This pre-flashing timing is a control-unit function, not an ELAC programming feature.

ELAC Compatibility Depends on the Control Unit

Do not write “compatible with all NICE motors.”

The correct wording is:

Compatible with NICE and other automation control units that provide a suitable 90–240 VAC flashing-light output.

Older and Current NICE Systems

NICE compatibility tables show ELAC with selected control-unit families, while many current low-voltage systems instead use ELDC.

For this reason, always check the exact control board before supplying either model.

ELAC with MC800

Do not automatically list MC800 as ELAC-compatible unless the exact controller configuration provides the correct output.

Choose the lamp by verified FLASH output voltage.

ELAC with MC824H

MC824H is primarily a 24V automation controller platform, so do not present ELAC as the default flashing lamp for MC824H installations.

For many such installations, low-voltage ELDC is the appropriate family.

ELAC with ROBUS

Current NICE ROBUS kits commonly use ELDC, not ELAC.

Therefore, avoid listing ELAC as universally compatible with ROBUS.

ELAC with WINGO or TOONA

Compatibility depends on the control unit used with the motor.

A 230V motor name does not automatically mean the flashing-light output is suitable for ELAC.

ELAC Installation UAE

A professional installation can include:

• Checking controller FLASH voltage
• Mounting the ELAC
• Installing the correct cable
• Connecting the mains-voltage flashing-light output
• Connecting the integrated aerial where required
• Testing flashing operation
• Testing radio reception
• Checking weather sealing

Electrical Safety

Because ELAC can operate directly from mains voltage up to 240 VAC, installation should be carried out by a competent technician with the automation isolated from electrical power.

Do not work on ELAC wiring while the controller is energised.

ELAC Does Not Flash

If the warning lamp does not operate, check:

• FLASH output voltage
• 90–240 VAC compatibility
• Wiring continuity
• Loose connections
• Controller settings
• Damaged cable
• Internal ELAC electronics

ELAC Flashes but Remote Range Is Poor

The lamp and aerial are separate functions.

If the LED works but remote reception remains poor, check:

• Aerial wiring
• Receiver aerial terminal
• Receiver type
• Radio interference
• Remote-control battery
• Metal structures
• Antenna cable condition

ELAC Remains On Continuously

The ELAC includes an internal flasher. If it remains permanently illuminated instead of flashing, verify the model, wiring, supply and whether the product has been incorrectly bypassed or modified.

Maintenance

Periodically inspect the flashing light for:

• Dirty outer cover
• Loose mounting screws
• Cracked housing
• Water ingress
• Damaged cable entry
• Loose electrical terminals
• Aerial cable damage
