Anti-Tamper Feature - Two screws prevent insertion of an Allen

wrench into the captive mounting screw opening on the bottom of

the lock. Fig. 3 shows their location. one screw also secures the

wiring cavity cover. The mounting plate cannot be separated from

the lock without removing these two screws.

Lock Options

Both of the 8310 and 8320 locks can be equipped with the DSS or SCS 

options or both.

SCS (Security Condition Sensor) - This feature can detect the quality of 

the locking bond between the surface of the magnet and the armature 

plate. Indication is with a local leD as well as remote monitoring 

through a SPDT relay output.  The sensitivity of this feature is such that 

a foreign object with a thickness of .007” (.18mm) is sufficient to allow 

the sensor to detect a problem.

Due to the sensitivity of this feature and the necessity to maintain a 

reliable locking bond, these surfaces must be kept free of contaminating 

materials. Both the lock surface and the armature plate must be cleaned 

periodically with a non-abrasive cleanser. Alignment of armature plate 

and magnet is required to ensure proper function of sensor.

Low Voltage Detection - each SCS circuit board also includes a low

voltage detection circuit when shipped from the factory. This

feature will cause the alarm relay and status leD to activate

should the lock input voltage drop below 9vDC. That signals a

monitored system or guard station that the holding force of the

lock may have been compromised.

DSS (Door Status Sensor) - The DSS option monitors the position 

of the door upon which the lock is installed. A SPDT reed switch 

mounted within the lock cavity eliminates the need for extra sensors 

to be installed on the door for notification of security or access control 

systems. The DSS option comes with a magnet pre-installed into the 

lock armature plate for signaling the reed switch in the housing when 

the door is closed independent of power to the lock.  Care should be 

taken during the final testing of the lock to ensure that the DSS option 

is operating in the desired manner.

Inspection and Maintenance 

This product and all related accessories or parts must be inspected 

and maintained on a quarterly basis. Contacting surfaces of the  

electromagnetic lock and armature plate must be kept free of 

contaminating materials. Surfaces must be cleaned periodically with a 

non-abrasive cleaner. 

All mounting fasteners must be inspected on a quarterly basis.  

When properly installed, the ends of the armature plate allow a slight 

movement but the plate will feel secure when grasped at the bolt. There 

should be no movement to the mounting bracket or housing of the 

electromagnetic lock.

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.
