Installation Instructions for all ETH/ETM Models

Applications:

The ETH and ETM hinges are used to pass low voltage power and/or signalling from a door frame to the door in order to power locksets, exit devices and door monitoring devices such as door position switches, request-to-exit switches, etc. ETM (Energy Transfer Monitor) hinges additionally provide a door position sensor in the hinge itself. The quantity and required gauge of wire depends on the hardware being used and the general purpose of the application.

Door Preparation:

The wire chase should be drilled with a 3/8'' drill bit at the point noted on the hinge template. The ETH/ETM hinge should always be positioned as one of the center hinges on the door, since the modified hinge no longer meets manufacturers load bearing specifications. A starter hole of 3/4" Diameter x 1- 1/2" deep is recommended for positioning the hinge wire (see note #1).

Frame Preparation:

Mark and drill hole to receive the wires from the ETH hinge (see note #1).

Warnings:

• 1. Be careful not to pinch wires when securing the hinge.
• 2. Do not allow the hinge to dangle by the wire during installation.

Notes:

• 1. In fire rated conditions be sure to confirm the maximum starter hole diameter and depth with the appropriate testing agency.
• 2. Steel based hinges are for interior use only. Use stainless steel or brass based hinges for exterior installations

Monitor Adjustment and Specifications (if applicable):

Clockwise wider gap, Counterclockwise narrow gap. (Fig. 1)

Hinge is adjusted with a 1/4" gap from factory which equates to the door opening 1-1/2" for a 3' door and 2" for a 4' door before triggering the monitor switch.
