Product Features
Technical Overview
This electromagnetic lock operates on a low-power consumption design, drawing 450 mA at 12 V DC or 225 mA at 24 V DC. The integrated magnetic bond sensor confirms proper lock-to-armature plate engagement, while the door status sensor provides real-time open/closed monitoring for integration with access control systems.
The lock body measures 8.69" in length, 2.50" in height, and 1.63" in depth, with a matching armature plate measuring 2.41" in height and 0.63" in depth. This compact footprint allows for installation in space-constrained applications while maintaining the full 544.31 kg holding capacity.
This section brings together practical product details such as Holding Force, Armature Plate Height, Armature Plate Depth, Input Voltage, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment.
