The CAME Frog Foundation Box is the essential underground housing for the CAME Frog range of swing gate motors. It serves as the durable, protective vault that holds the motor below ground level, ensuring it remains “invisible” while operating.

Key Features & Versions

  • Protection: Designed for high resistance to environmental elements (IP67 protection rating when paired with the correct motor).

  • Included Components: Each box typically comes complete with an unlocking lever (for manual gate release), a gate-securing bracket, and a screw for adjusting the opening limit switch point.

  • Material Options:

    • Cataphoresis-coated Steel: A cost-effective, corrosion-resistant standard option.

    • AISI 304 Stainless Steel: Recommended for areas near the coast or in highly corrosive environments.

  • Dimensions: Standard foundation boxes are typically 405mm (length) x 330mm (width) x 160mm (height).

Important Compatibility Note

It is vital to select the correct foundation box based on your specific motor model:

  • Standard Frog Series (FROG-A, AV, AE, A24, A24E): Use the standard FROG-CF (cataphoresis) or FROG-BI (stainless steel) foundation boxes.

  • Frog Plus Series (PM4/PM6): These larger, heavy-duty motors require the FROG-PC foundation box.

  • Frog-X Series: These are compatible with standard foundation boxes but are often supplied with specific updated models (such as the FROG-BN).
