Description & Specifications:
600-S-LED Slimline Mini Magnetic Lock (12/24V DC)
This surface-mount slimline mini magnetic lock combines robust security with advanced monitoring features, making it an ideal choice for internal uPVC, timber, or metal doors.
Key Features:
- Strong Holding Force: Provides a secure holding force of 272kg (600lbs).
- Dual Voltage: Selectable 12V or 24V DC operation via internal jumper links.
- LED Status Indicator: A dual red/green LED offers a clear visual indication of the lock's status (locked or unlocked).
- Lock Monitoring: Features Hall Effect contacts (N/O & N/C) to monitor whether the magnet is locked or unlocked. This voltage-free output can be integrated with alarm systems, sounders, or lights to confirm the lock's status.
- Door Status Monitoring: Includes a door status sensor to determine if the door is open or closed, even without power to the magnet. This allows for comprehensive access control monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
-
Why is the magnet running warm/hot? "Power to Lock" devices like magnetic locks require constant power and will naturally run warm. However, excessive heat can be caused by a voltage mismatch (e.g., using a 24V DC power supply for a 12V DC setting), insufficient amperage from the power supply, or a significant current drop due to long cable runs with inadequate wire gauge.
-
Why is the armature plate vibrating? Vibration is typically a sign of an under-rated or faulty power supply, or a voltage mismatch where the magnet is set to 24V DC but the power supply is 12V DC.
-
Why isn't the magnet locking properly? The most common causes are incorrect alignment between the armature plate and the magnet, a faulty/under-rated power supply, or a voltage mismatch (e.g., a 24V DC setting with a 12V DC supply).
Important Technical Note: Before applying power, always double-check that the internal jumper link is set to match your power supply voltage (12V or 24V DC). Failure to do so can cause the lock to overheat, fail to engage correctly, and may eventually damage the unit or your system. For optimal performance, periodically clean the surfaces of the magnet and armature plate with a light oil.
