Operation
What is Delayed Egress Circuitry?
3101 Series Magnetic Locks
3000 Series Magnetic Locks
Each Magnetic Lock is comprised of 3 basic
components: a lock housing, an electromagnetic
coil and an armature.
The coil and housing assembly mounts rigidly to
the door frame while the armature mounts to the
door in a manner that allows it to pivot slightly
to compensate for door irregularities.
When the door is closed and the lock is
energized the armature is magnetically bonded
to the lock face, thus securing the door without
utilizing any moving parts.
Operation
The Magnetic Lock will engage when a Tag is
on the Tx Activation Field. The Lock remains
engaged as long as a Tag is in the Field.
Once locked, the Lock will disengage when any
of the following conditions occur:
All Tags leave the Field and the preset
delay times out (02-18 seconds; set by
R43 Tag Detect Delay)
A Keypad Reset.
A PBO is activated.
The facility’s Fire Alarm is activated.
The removal of power, for any reason,
will de-energize the lock allowing the
door to be opened.
DELAYED EGRESS CIRCUITRY
