Electromagnetic Locks
Pre-Installation Instructions
1. This product must be installed according to all applicable
building and life safety codes.
2. Due to the variety of mounting configurations available with
this product, a survey and assessment of the physical area
in which the pr
oduct will be installed must be performed.
3. The door frame must be inspected and deemed structurally
sound prior to installation of the electromagnetic lock. The
structural integrity of the mounting surfaces must be strong
enough to meet or exceed the holding force of the product.
4. The product must be protected from potential damage due
to intruders or tampering.
5. The product should be installed in a location that will not
hinder or create a potential safety hazard to authorized
personnel accessing the protected area.
6. Because electromagnetic locks are used in a variety of
applications and different door frame configurations, an
experienced installer with knowledge of this product must
make a determination of the optimal mounting method for
this specific application.
7. The components, hardware, installation instructions and
mounting template included with this product are intended
for use on outswinging doors.
8. Do not install this product on the exterior of buildings.
9. Separate accessories not included with this pr
oduct must be

Narrow head jamb situations or center-hung doors
Wherever there is insufficient space on the door frame
header to mount the lock
Glass or Herculite doors that do not have a door frame
Hollow metal or wood frames where the door stop is

Wherever an obstruction in the door prevents
installation of the armature plate at a proper height
Doors that do not permit the armature plate to be
mounted low enough to meet the magnet surface
Refer to the Product Accessories Guide section of the

1. Mount the electromagnetic lock to the door frame as outlined
on the installation template included with the product.
NOTE: During installation of the armature plate to the door it is
essential that the ar
matur
e plate remains movable. The armature
plate must be allowed to pivot on the center-mounting bolt to
allow pr
oper alignment with the magnet sur
face. If the plate is
not aligned with the magnet sur
face, the lock may lose holding
force or not lock at all.
The head of the armature mounting bolt ships with a rubber
washer af
fixed to it. This washer should pr
oject slightly beyond
the surface of the armature plate. This is to allow the washer to
expand when power is removed and break the air vacuum
between the plate and the magnet sur
face. If this washer is
removed or trimmed the lock will appear to have some holding
force even when power is removed.
For added safety, thread locking compound has been provided for
the armature plate bolt and the four captive electromagnetic lock
mounting scr
ews.
WARNING: Improper installation, maintenance, inspection or
usage of the product or any related accessories or parts may cause
the electromagnetic lock, armature plate and associated hardware
to disengage and fall, causing serious bodily injury and property
damage. Ruther
for
d Contr
ols Int'l Corp. will not be liable to the
installer
, pur
chaser
, end user or anyone else for damage or injur
y
to person or pr
oper
ty due to improper installation, care, storage,
handling, maintenance, inspection, abuse, misuse or act of God or
natur
e involving this pr
oduct or any related accessories or parts.
2. Route the power supply connecting wire through the door
frame and into the wire access hole in the top of the magnet
housing. Connecting wir
e should be of suf
ficient gauge for
the lock being installed and the distance being run. See table
for current draw specifications and wiring gauge chart.
