RECESSED MAGNALOCK MODEL M34R SERIES INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. INTRODUCTION

The Securitron Series of Recessed Magnalocks were designed for installations where concealed, mortise type mounting in the door and frame is desired. The M34R was designed to operate primarily with sliding type doors and are usually installed vertically for proper operation.

The M34R lock is also available with the following features:

The BondSTAT "B" Series, Bond Sensor, monitors the magnetic field. An internal sensor activates a SPDT dry contact relay connection designed for interface to access control and/or alarm systems for reporting the status of the Magnalock. (See Section 5.5.2 )

The DPS "D" Series, Door Position Sensor, is activated by a special magnetic strike armature assembly. The isolated SPDT reed switch, with an internal resettable protection device, is designed for interface to access control and/or alarm system for door status. (See Section 5.5.2 )

5. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

5.1 Pre-Installation Survey

It is recommended that an initial on sight survey be performed. A method of mounting should be determined and an installation plan should be reviewed as follows:

• Physical strength of mounting areas should be strong enough to meet or exceed the holding force of the required Magnalock.
• Placement of the Magnalock wiring and protection from potential damage due to intruders or vandals external attack should be considered during the survey.
• Accessibility should be considered for prevention of any potential safety hazard.

The door and frame areas additionally need to be examined for mortising capabilities, sufficient size and should be free of any internal obstructions.

5.2 Sliding Door

The illustrations in Figure 2 demonstrate a Recessed Magnalock installed in a sliding door. The Magnalock mounts recessed into the door frame and the strike assembly is mounted into the leading edge of the sliding door.

5.3 Frame and Door Preparation

5.3.1 Frame Preparation

Select a mounting location for the lock and strike assembly as mentioned in Section 5.1 . The following general guideline should be used for consideration during the installation review:

• Read and follow the directions on the template provided which includes drilling and mounting instructions.
• An approximated 2" [51mm] clearance distance should be allowed between the lock (mounting bracket) and the inside corner of the door frame. This will provide adequate access for the mounting locations and for drilling and tool access.

PN# 500-13800 Page 2 Rev. D, 04/11

BEFORE CUTTING OR DRILLING ANY HOLES - ALWAYS CHECK THE STRIKE MOUNTING AREA IN THE EDGE OF THE DOOR FOR OBSTACLES WHEN PLANNING WHERE TO LOCATE THE LOCK. MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE STRIKE MOUNTING AREA DOES NOT HAVE ANY OBSTRUCTIONS (I.E. DOOR ADJUSTMENT SCREWS OR DOOR CLOSER OPERATORS) THAT MIGHT HINDER THE INSTALLATION.

• Horizontally mark the door face and the frame to identify the desired height location of the lock/strike installation.
• Locate and mark the desired vertical centerline position for the lock/strike assembly in the center of the leading edge of the door. Using this door mark as reference, mark the same vertical center location for the lock onto the door frame.
• Using the magnet body mounting information in Section 5.4 and the lock template provided, center the appropriate template into position on the frame and mark the mortise cutout area.
• Using a router, saber saw, or chisel (for wood) cut out the area for the lock mounting. Insert the lock into the frame and mark the bracket locations for the mounting holes.
• Using the drill size information on the template and a power drill, bore the holes required for mounting.

5.3.2 Door Preparation

• Locate the previously marked horizontal and vertical centerlines for the strike assembly on the edge of the door.
• Using the strike assembly mounting information in Section 5.5 and the strike template provided, align the template into position onto the frame and mark the mortise cutout area and the hole locations for the strike mounting block. (Note the different sizes for the cutout – the "D" version of the M34R requires the longer cutout to provide room for the door position actuators at each end of the strike).
• Using a router or saber saw cut out the area for the strike mounting.
• Using the drill size information on the template and a power drill, bore the holes required for mounting.

5.4 Mounting the Magnet Body

The desired cable exit location should be determined prior to installing the magnet body. The lock is symmetrical which allows the cable exit from the top or bottom of the door frame. There are many different techniques for mounting the lock depending on the type or style of doors and frames. The following sections describe installation methods for use on hollow aluminum, steel and wood type doors and frames.

5.4.1 Hollow Metal Door Frames

Prepare the door frame in accordance with Section 5.3.1 .

Place the lock body into the cutout area to ensure proper fit. As necessary, perform any filing or cutting necessary to ensure the mortised fit. Ensure all necessary holes required to mount the magnet body and flush mount brackets into place as indicated on the template have been provided. Install the lock using a hex wrench, the listed mounting screws and the flush mount brackets as shown in Figures 3 and 4 below. The adaption to variation in frame material thicknesses can be obtained by flipping the orientation of the flush mount brackets. Shim plates are also provided which may be used in conjunction with the flush mount brackets to create the desired exposed height of the lock and/or to compensate for the various material thicknesses of door frames. It is recommended that the magnet face protrude approximately 1/16" [1.5mm] beyond the surface of the frame. Both Figures 3 and 4 show a shim plate between the lock mounting bracket and the flush mount bracket in order to raise the magnet above the frame surface.

5.4.2 Solid Wood Door Frames

Prepare the door frame in accordance with Section 5.3.1 .

Place the lock body into the cutout area to ensure proper fit. As necessary, perform any filing or chiseling necessary to ensure the mortised fit. Ensure all necessary holes required to mount the magnet body into place as indicated on the template have been provided. The depth of the mortise cut out is important depending on the lock model being installed. The minimum depth of the cut out is noted in Figure 5 below and includes enough distance for the required recess depth of 1/16" [1.5mm] for the mounting brackets. Install the lock using the wood mounting screws as shown in Figure 5 .

5.5 Mounting the Strike Assembly

5.5.1 Hollow Metal Door

Prepare the door in accordance with Section 5.3.2 .

Using the provided template and Figure 2 for reference, install the strike mounting block into the edge of the door using a hex wrench and the provided mounting screws and sex bolts. Assemble the strike to the mounting block using the strike mounting screw, plastic strike bushing and one, two or three of the rubber washers to complete the installation.

APPLY THE PROVIDED THREAD LOCKING COMPOUND TO ALL MOUNTING SCREW AND SEX BOLT THREADS.

5.5.2 Lock/Strike Installation for "B" and "D" M34R Locks

IMPORTANT!

PLEASE READ AND APPLY THIS INFORMATION WHEN ALIGNING/INSTALLING THE LOCK AND STRIKE. THE ALIGNMENT TOLERANCES INDICATED FOR THE M34R LOCK MODEL ARE CONSIDERED CRITICAL FOR THE PROPER OPERATION OF BOTH THE MAGNETIC BOND SENSING (MBS) AND DOOR POSITION SENSING (DPS) SYSTEMS!

SENSOR RANGES (PHYSICAL POSITIONING):

The BondSTAT "B" and DPS "D" Magnalock " Secure Zone " sensing range for the M34R lock model is as follows:

Table A

Figure 6

(The Figure 6 illustration is a visual reference to the sensing range outlined in Table A ).

6. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

6.1 General Characteristics

The Magnalock is a low current load device using specialized internal circuitry. The normal characteristic of an inductive load, such as inductive kick-back, is not present. See Section 2 for more information.

6.2 Electrical Standards

DC voltage, full-wave rectified, must be provided for proper operation of the Magnalocks. The red wire receives +12VDC or +24VDC, and the black wire, 0 Volts (negative). If the lock is connected with reverse polarity, it will not operate. The M34R Series Magnalocks are auto sensing dual voltage locks. The Magnalock circuit design will automatically select the proper operational conditions for the applied voltage. See Section 2 for more information.

6.3 Poor Release Characteristics

The M34R Magnalock is designed with quick release circuitry. Wiring errors may cause a Magnalock to release slowly. Figure 7 illustrates a parallel installation of a resistive load (correct). Figure 8 illustrates a parallel reverse diode (incorrect).

Figure 7 Figure 8

6.4 Sensor Ranges (ELECTRICAL)

The M34R "B" version monitoring system is also voltage sensitive. The specified voltage ranges must be properly applied. Refer to Section 2 for the recommended operating voltage ranges.

6.5 Electrical Wiring

The following diagrams, Figures 9 , 10 , 11 and 12 represent the proper electrical wiring connections required for the M34R Magnalock Standard, and for the BondSTAT "B", DPS "D" and "BD" versions.

6.6 BondSTAT Sensor status wiring description

• The green and white wires supply electrical connection when the lock is ON and secure.
• The orange and white wires supply electrical connection when the lock OFF or unsecure.

6.7 DPS – Door Position Sensor status wiring description

• The blue and yellow wires supply electrical connection when the door condition is closed.
• The brown and yellow wires supply electrical connection when the door condition is open.

6.8 Emergency Release

Magnalocks are often wired into a system for quick release in case of emergency. Manual switching or automatic triggering from a fire alarm system is practical. It is the user's responsibility to correctly hookup the Magnalock according to the instructions. It is recommended to use a switch or relay to perform break of power. Securitron power supplies have terminals for the interconnection of such emergency release switches.

Wire Gauge Factoring

1.1 Remote Power Supply

• The Magnalock requires adequate voltage and current for proper operation.
• Resistance is created by the length and gauge (size) of the wire being used.
• An accurate estimated distance from the power supply to the opening is crucial.
• For superior operation the correct size gauge wire must be used.
• The devices used operate the best with the least amount of resistance on the source.
• Using the correct gauge wires protects against large voltage and current (load) losses.
• The gauge is determined by the wire distance, voltage and current of all devices.

1.2 Determining Wire Gauge

• Follow Example A (12VDC system) and Example B (24VDC system) below.
• Use Tables 1 and Table 2 to choose the correct wire gauge for the application.
