CAME BX708ALS 800 kg Sliding Gate Motor Oman, Magnetic Limit Switch Ready Kit

Description

The CAME BX708ALS is an 800 kg sliding gate motor kit for private home gates. It uses an encoder to track the gate, its control board has a display and stores up to 250 users, and the control is set up for magnetic limit switches. The kit comes with two remotes, a photocell pair, a receiver, a blinker light, a 4 metre nylon rack and a push button.

Two points come first. A gate near 800 kg usually needs a steel rack, not the nylon rack in the kit. And the listing publishes no power, speed or gate length, so we confirm them before we quote.

What the CAME BX708ALS model code means

BX708ALS is the model code on the supplier’s listing, which also calls the motor an 800 kg CAME BX gate opener. We read the code on the motor label when you collect it, so you know exactly which unit you have.

If you want to compare it with the CAME BX 800 kg we also list, tell us and we explain the difference before you buy.

CAME 800 kg sliding gate motor in Oman: choosing by weight

Choose the motor by the weight of the moving leaf, with a margin. A motor that runs near its limit all day wears out early.

If your gate sits close to a limit, step up to the next motor. The gate must also roll freely by hand before any motor drives it.

Magnetic limit switch ready: what it means on the BX708ALS

The listing says the control is set up for magnetic limit switches. A magnetic switch senses the gate through a magnet, so it has no mechanical contact to wear out. That helps in a dusty climate. The listing does not say whether the switches are fitted, so we confirm before sale.

The motor also uses an encoder, so the board knows where the gate is, slows it near each end and reacts to an obstacle. We set the open and closed positions during installation and test the response before we leave.

Nylon or steel rack for an 800 kg gate

The kit includes a 4 metre nylon rack. The rack must run along the whole length of the leaf, so a longer gate needs more, joined in line. The listing does not state the pinion module, so we confirm it before we supply extra rack. A rack of the wrong module will not mesh with the pinion.

Nylon rack is usually rated for lighter gates than steel of the same module. A gate near 800 kg should run on steel, and we quote it with the motor.

250 users, display and safety edges on the control board

The board has terminal blocks and a display, and stores up to 250 users, which suits a villa, a compound or a small block. Its safety devices are self diagnosing, so a failed photocell does not leave the gate unprotected. The inputs can take 8k2 resistive safety edges, which we recommend where a gate closes toward a wall or a footpath.

The kit includes a photocell pair. The listing does not name the type, so we confirm whether it is Bluebus, which suits CAME boards only.

What the listing does not publish, and what we confirm

We do not copy figures from the other CAME motors, because each one differs.

CAME remote controls: receiver and what pairs

A remote receiver is in the kit, with two remotes. The listing does not state the radio frequency. A CAME receiver pairs only with CAME handsets. Somfy, BFT and Nice remotes cannot pair with it, because each brand uses its own coding. Tell us how many people use the gate and we will say whether 250 users is enough.

Power cuts and the CAME BX708ALS

The listing gives no battery backup details, so we do not promise that the gate opens in a power cut. We confirm with the supplier whether a battery option exists. Until then, treat it as a mains gate, and keep the manual release where you can reach it.

Heat, sand and the CAME BX708ALS in Oman

The listing publishes no IP rating or temperature range, so we treat the motor as one that needs a shaded, raised base. We mount it clear of standing water and blown sand, and we shield the control board from direct sun. Keep the track clean, because sand wears rollers and rack faster than any motor fault.

CAME BX708ALS FAQ

What is the CAME BX708ALS?

An 800 kg sliding gate motor kit for private home gates, with encoder control, a board that stores 250 users and a control set up for magnetic limit switches.

How is the CAME BX708ALS different from the CAME BX 800 kg?

Ask us before you buy. We read the model code on the motor and explain the difference, so you pick the right unit for your gate.

Does the CAME BX708ALS need a steel rack?

The kit includes a 4 metre nylon rack. A gate near 800 kg usually needs a steel rack, so we confirm the rating and quote steel where needed.

Will my Somfy or BFT remote work with the CAME BX708ALS?

No. A CAME receiver pairs only with CAME handsets, because each brand uses its own coding. You need CAME remotes.

What is the CAME BX708ALS price in Oman?

OMR 264.000, in stock at our Muscat shop. Installation is quoted separately once we have seen the gate.

Do you fit a CAME sliding gate motor in Muscat and across Oman?

Yes. Our engineers fit and programme CAME motors in Muscat, Sohar, Nizwa, Sur, Salalah, Duqm and across all eleven governorates.
