FAQ
What is the holding force of the Securitron M68D magnetic lock?
The M68D delivers 544.31 kg (approximately 1,200 pounds) of holding force. This substantial strength makes it suitable for securing standard commercial doors against forced entry attempts while maintaining reliable operation through countless cycles.
What voltage does this magnetic lock require?
This lock operates on dual voltage: 12 V DC or 24 V DC. This flexibility allows integration with various existing security system power supplies without requiring voltage converters or specialized power sources.
What is the Door Position Switch (DPS) feature?
The integrated Door Position Switch monitors whether the door is properly closed and secured. This feedback can be connected to access control systems to provide real-time door status information, enhancing security monitoring and audit capabilities.
How does the 'no residual magnetism' feature benefit operation?
No residual magnetism means the lock releases completely when power is removed, preventing sticking or delayed release. This ensures reliable operation cycle after cycle and reduces wear on both the lock and door mechanism.
What are the physical dimensions of this magnetic lock?
The lock measures 10.50 inches (266.70 mm) in length, 3.63 inches (92.08 mm) in height, and 2 inches (50.80 mm) in depth. These dimensions provide substantial holding surface while maintaining a profile suitable for most standard door frames.
What type of warranty comes with the Securitron M68D?
Securitron provides a lifetime limited warranty for this magnetic lock. This warranty coverage reflects the product's durability and reliability for long-term security installations in commercial and institutional environments.
What connectivity or interface options are available?
Connectivity details help confirm how the product integrates with your network, accessories, and surrounding peripherals before rollout or replacement planning. They are often the difference between a technically compatible device and one that is genuinely easy to deploy.
