NICE / APOLLO 10028290, BRKT, SURGE BOARD,F/35/7500/B
The NICE Apollo 10028290 is an OEM-style surge board bracket used to hold the surge protection board in place inside select Apollo gate operator control enclosures. On older Apollo installations, small internal mounting parts are often damaged during board service, corrosion repair, lightning/surge repairs, or enclosure rebuilds. This bracket is not the surge board itself; it is the mechanical support that helps keep the board properly mounted, spaced, and protected inside the operator cabinet. Correct bracket fit matters because a loose or improvised board mount can allow vibration, wire strain, or contact with nearby metal parts. This item is most often associated with Apollo 3500 and 7500 operator families, including B-series references, where the internal board layout matches the original parts diagram.
This part is best ordered by the manufacturer part number and the operator parts diagram, not by appearance alone. Many Apollo slide and swing gate operators use similar covers, chains, brackets, and small service components, but the correct replacement can depend on operator model, cabinet generation, chain pitch, cable routing, mounting hole pattern, or release hardware. When the gate has been modified, rebuilt, or serviced with older Apollo parts, compare the original part and the model label before ordering.

Technician Note
For slide operator chains and covers, inspect sprockets, mounting holes, chain alignment, debris buildup, and cabinet condition before replacing the part. For brackets and release parts, check the mounting geometry and any worn hardware that may have caused the original failure. Do not bypass safety devices or operate a gate with exposed moving parts after service.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the NICE Apollo part number on the original part or parts diagram.
- Match the operator model and generation before assuming compatibility.
- For chain parts, verify chain pitch, length, sprocket condition, and master link style.
- For covers and shrouds, compare mounting holes, cabinet style, cover length, and finish.
- For brackets or release parts, confirm mounting points, hardware, and operator geometry.
Professional Advisory
Gate operator repairs should be performed with power secured and with the gate safely supported. Electrical diagnosis, control-board service, and any repair involving unsafe gate movement should be handled by a qualified gate technician.
Product Questions and Answers
Is the 10028290 the surge board or only the bracket?
The 10028290 is the bracket used to mount the surge board. It is not the surge protection board itself.
Which Apollo operators commonly use this bracket?
It is commonly associated with Apollo 3500, 3500B, 7500, and 7500B operator applications where the enclosure and surge board mounting pattern match.
Can this bracket be used on any Apollo control box?
No. Internal bracket spacing and board layout can vary by operator series and generation. Match the original bracket, enclosure, and parts diagram before ordering.
Why would this bracket need replacement?
It may be replaced when the original bracket is bent, missing, corroded, or removed during surge board or control box repair.
Does this include the surge protection board?
No. The listing should be treated as the bracket only unless the product package is separately confirmed as a kit.
