INSTALLATION
8310/8320
Electromagnetic Locks
IS8310-20
PCN16047
R09/17GR
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 armature plate remains movable. The
armature plate must be allowed to pivot on the center-mounting
bolt to allow proper alignment with the magnet surface. If the
plate is not aligned with the magnet surface, the lock may lose
holding force or not lock at all .
The head of the armature mounting bolt ships with a rubber
washer affixed to it. This washer should project 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 surface. 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 screws.
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. Rutherford Controls Int’l Inc. and/or Rutherford
Controls Int’l Corp. will not be liable to the installer, purchaser,
end user or anyone else for damage or injury to person or
property due to improper installation, care, storage, handling,
maintenance, inspection, abuse, misuse or act of God or nature
involving this product 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 wire should be of sufficient gauge for
the lock being installed and the distance being run. See table
for current draw specifications and wiring gauge chart.
