Introduction:
Features:
The E-941SA series of electromagnetic locks is the ideal way to secure a door against unauthorized entry. When power is
applied to the electromagnetic lock, it creates an extremely strong magnetic field. The electromagnet is strongly attracted
to the steel armature plate which is mounted on the secured door. Once the electromagnet is deactivated, the secured
door will function normally without any residual magnetism.
MOV surge protection.
Adjustable mounting bracket.
Complete mounting hardware for typical
installations.
"L" bracket and "Z" brackets available for easy
mounting.

The power for the E-941SA-600 / E-941SA-1200 is to
be provided by a Listed (UL294, UL603 and CAN/UL
C-S533, also UL864 or UL1481 for standalone power
supply) Class 2 Power Supply.
The E-941SA-600 / E-941SA-1200 is intended to be
used in combination with access control and/or
commercial fire alarm panel. which are installed in
accordance with the manufacturer’s Installation and
operation instructions, ANSI/NFPA 70 & NFPA 72
and the local authority having jurisdiction.

NOTE: When mounting the electromagnet, it may be necessary to use a "Z"-bracket, 1 or 2 "L"-brackets,
depending on the location and the type of door and frame. Use the diagram below to help decide whether or
not an optional bracket will be necessary for installation.

1. Read this installation manual thoroughly. A clear understanding of the product and this
manual will make installation much easier.
2. The electromagnetic lock is designed for indoor use ONLY.
3. The most suitable mounting location for the electromagnetic lock may require the use of
additional SECO-LARM accessories such as Z-brackets, and L-brackets. Please see the
diagram on page 3 to decide if a particular application requires any mounting accessories.
4. Do not run power wires and signal wires in the same conduit as this may cause interference.
5. Do not install a diode in parallel with the electromagnetic lock as this may cause a delay
when releasing the door as well as cause residual magnetism.
6. The best location to install the electromagnetic lock is on the inside of the door that is being
secured with the wiring concealed in the frame to prevent tampering with the unit.
1. Fold the mounting template along the dotted line to
form a 90-degree angle.
4. Drill two holes in the frame and
three holes in the door as shown
on the template.
5. Use a hammer to lightly tap the
guide pins into the guide pin
holes on the armature plate.
2. Close the door. Find a mounting location on the door
frame near the upper free-moving corner of the
door, or as close as possible to the upper corner of
the door frame opposite the hinges.
3. Place the template against
the door and frame. Mark
where the holes are to be
drilled.

7. Put a rubber washer between the two metal washers,
and place them over the armature screw between
the armature plate and the door. This allows the
plate to pivot around the screw to compensate for
door misalignment.
9. Screw the two short self-tapping screws through the mounting plate’s slotted holes, but do not over-tighten them.
Keeping them loose will allow for adjustment of the plate left or right so that the mounting plate and the armature
plate form a 90-degree angle. See the diagram below.
8. Tighten the armature screw enough so that the
armature plate can withstand a break-in attempt, but
loose enough so that the armature plate can pivot
slightly. Make sure the anti-spin guide pins are in the
two guide pin holes.

6. Depending on the type of door being protected, drill holes according to the diagrams below:
Hollow Metal Door
Solid Core Door
Reinforced Door
1/4" (6.8mm) for M8x1.25 thread
Drill a 5/16" (8mm) dia. hole through the
armature-plate side of the door for the
armature screw. Then drill a 1/2"
(12.7mm) dia. hole for sexnut screw on
the opposite side of the door.
Drill an 5/16" (8mm) dia. hole on the
door for the armature screw, and drill a
1/2" (12.7mm) dia. and 1" (25mm) deep
hole for the sexnut screw.
Drill a 1/4" (6.8mm)
dia. and 1" (25mm)
deep hole, tap for
M8x1.25 thread.
Tip: Use a thread-locking compound
on the armature screw to ensure
a long-lasting installation.
