INSTALLATION DESCRIPTION
The Series 2280 is a 1200 pound holding force
electromagnetic lock designed to secure a single
outswinging door. The lock requires installation
procedures as described herein and in the separate
wiring instructions included.
Typical installation of the lock on a
RHR single outswinging door:
Care must be taken that the lock face and armature face are kept free of dirt, rust, paint, or any other obstruction
which may interfere with the lock and armature making good contact. These faces may be cleaned with a non-
abrasive pad and wiped with an oil dampened cloth.
Familiarize yourself with the door and frame conditions. The lock must mount rigidly to the under side of the door
frame header. The door mounted armature is supplied with hardware that allows it to pivot slightly to compensate
for reasonable misalignment.
NOTE: If this lock is supplied with the DSM option be certain that magnets are present inside the armature
housing.
After mechanical installation is complete the lock needs to be wired to a 12 or 24 VDC/VAC power source. Once low
voltage power is supplied the unit is fully operational. All other wiring is for selected options. Refer to the separate
wiring instructions included for further information.
