Get a formal quoteThis is the Centurion Systems gate motor base plate for the D3, D5-Evo and D6 SMART and SMART+ sliding gate motors. Centurion Systems calls it the Foundation Plate, and it comes boxed with 3 studs, M10 half-nuts and M12 washers. The motor is not supplied with a base plate, so a motor-only installation needs one. The bigger D10, D10 Turbo and D20 use a different plate: for those motors, order the D10, D10 Turbo and D20 SMART base plate.
Which motors this base plate fits
The Foundation Plate fits the Centurion Systems D3, D5-Evo and D6 in both SMART and SMART+ versions, so it is the plate for the D3 SMART+, the D5-Evo SMART+ and the D6 SMART+. It does not fit every D-Series motor: the D10, D10 Turbo and D20 sit on their own, different foundation plate.
What is in the box
- Foundation plate
- 3 studs
- M10 half-nuts (tighten to 20Nm)
- M12 washers
New plinth or existing plinth
On a new installation the base plate is set into a 25MPa concrete plinth. Where a plinth is already in place, for example when an old motor is being swapped out, the plate can be bolted down onto the existing plinth instead. Alectra Solutions supplies the equipment only. Trade account holders can open the Centurion Systems manual on this page after login.
Buying a new D3 or D5-Evo motor?
The motor-only listings do not include a base plate. If you are buying a new motor and want the plate in the same box, the D3 SMART+ kit with battery and base plate and the D5-Evo SMART+ kit with battery and base plate already include the foundation plate, so there is no need to order this one as well.
Key features
- Fits the D3, D5-Evo and D6. Made for the SMART and SMART+ versions of all three Centurion Systems sliding gate motors.
- Fixings in the box. Comes boxed with 3 studs, M10 half-nuts and M12 washers.
- 20Nm on the half-nuts. The M10 half-nuts are tightened to 20Nm.
- New or existing plinth. Set it into a new 25MPa concrete plinth or bolt it down onto an existing plinth.
- Sold separately from the motor. A motor-only purchase does not include a base plate, so order one with it.
- Not for the D10 range. The D10, D10 Turbo and D20 use a different foundation plate.
