INSTALLATION 8360

1. Hold lock against frame at desired level. Mark the lock’s horizontal

centerline on the frame and transfer that mark to the door.

2. Determine the vertical centerline of the door thickness and

mark this on both the door and the frame.

3. Using these centerline references, cut out the lock mortise in

the frame as illustrated.

4. Temporarily fasten the two mounting tabs under the lock

flanges. Insert the lock assembly into the frame cavity until

the tabs are resting on top. Mark the location of the tab

mounting holes.

5. Drill and countersink these four holes to accept the 3/16”

screws provided.

6. Remove tabs from lock. Mount the tabs inside the frame.

7. Set voltage dipswitches as follows:

12VDC operation = 1 and 2 are On / 3 is Off

24VDC operation = 1 and 2 are Off / 3 is On (factory setting)

Connect the positive (+) power lead to the red and the

negative (-) lead to the black wire.

Connecting wire should be of sufficient gauge for the lock

being installed and the distance being run. See table for

current draw specifications and wiring gauge chart.

8. RLS (Remote Lock Status)

This feature can detect the quality of the locking bond

between the surface of the magnet and the armature plate.

The sensitivity of this feature is such that a foreign object with

a thickness of .007” (.18mm) is sufficient to allow the sensor

to detect a problem.

Due to the sensitivity of this feature and the necessity to

maintain a reliable locking surface, these surfaces must be

kept free of contaminating materials. Both the lock surface

and the armature plate must be cleaned periodically with a

non-abrasive cleanser. Proper alignment of the armature

plate and magnet is required to ensure proper function of

sensor.

The 3 RLS lead wires at the lock corner are: Red = Normally

Closed, Black = Common, Green = Normally Open with the

door open / unlocked.

Instructions

Pre-Installation Instructions

1. This product must be installed according to all applicable

building and life safety codes.

2. Due to the variety of mounting configurations available with

this product, a survey and assessment of the physical area in

which the product will be installed must be performed.

3. The door frame must be inspected and deemed structurally

sound prior to installation of the electromagnetic lock. The

structural integrity of the mounting surfaces must be strong

enough to meet or exceed the holding force of the product.

4. The product must be protected from potential damage due to

intruders or tampering.

5. The product should be installed in a location that will not

hinder or create a potential safety hazard to authorized

personnel accessing the protected area.

6. Because electromagnetic locks are used in a variety of

applications and different door frame configurations, an

experienced installer with knowledge of this product must

make a determination of the optimal mounting method for

this specific application.

7. Do not install this product on the exterior of buildings.

8. Do not use as a doorstop. This will void warranty.

9. Installation of this product should be done by an experienced

installer with knowledge of this product.

NOTE: It is highly recommended that thread locking compound

be applied to all screws during installation to reduce chance of

screws loosening over extended time.

WARNING: Improper installation, maintenance, inspection or usage

of the product or any related accessories or parts may cause the

electromagnetic lock, armature plate and associated hardware

to disengage and fall, causing serious bodily injury and property

damage. Rutherford Controls Int’l Inc. and/or Rutherford Controls

Int’l Corp. will not be liable to the installer, purchaser, end user

or anyone else for damage or injury to person or property due

to improper installation, care, storage, handling, maintenance,

inspection, abuse, misuse or act of God or nature involving this

product or any related accessories or parts.

PLEASE DELIVER ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO

THE END-USER UPON COMPLETION OF THE INSTALLATION.

Instructions Cont’d

IMPORTANT: the RLS contacts are rated at a maximum of

0.20 amps. Greater current will cause damage to the sensor

and will void warranty.

9. Secure lock on tabs in mortise cavity, carefully applying thread

locking compound to the hardware provided.

10. Using centerline references on the door and illustration provided,

drill the four “U” clamp mounting holes and cut out the armature

mortise.

11. Position the “U” clamp inside door as shown. Insert the two pan

head sex nuts from the outside of the door and through the “U”

clamp. Insert the two button head hex bolts from the inside of

the door and secure into the sex nuts.

12. Position bolt with rubber head through armature plate. Add 3

washers (steel - rubber - steel) onto threads. Carefully apply

thread-locking compound to exposed thread and mount onto the

“U” clamp.

NOTE: Do not over tighten. The armature plate must be allowed

to pivot on the mounting bolt to allow proper alignment with

the magnet surface. If the plate is not aligned with the magnet

surface, the lock may lose holding force or not lock at all.

The head of the armature mounting bolt ships with a rubber

washer affixed to it. This washer should project slightly beyond

the surface of the armature plate. This is to allow the washer

to expand when power is removed and break the air vacuum

between the plate and the magnet surface. If this washer is

removed or trimmed, the lock will appear to have some holding

force even when power is removed.

13. With a release device already installed, energize circuit and close

door gently. If magnet does not secure, verify that armature

plate is making contact with face of magnetic block. If necessary,

install additional steel washers behind armature plate to move

armature plate closer to block face and retest.

Inspection and Maintenance

This product and all related accessories or parts must be inspected

and maintained on a quarterly basis. Contacting surfaces of the

electromagnetic lock and armature plate must be kept free of

contaminating materials. Surfaces must be cleaned periodically with a

non-abrasive cleaner.

All mounting fasteners must be inspected on a quarterly basis.

When properly installed, the ends of the armature plate allow a slight

movement but the plate will feel secure when grasped at the bolt. There

should be no movement to the mounting bracket or housing of the

electromagnetic lock.

For added safety, thread locking compound has been provided for the

armature plate bolt and the four electromagnetic lock mounting screws.

WARNING: Improper installation, maintenance, inspection or usage

of the product or any related accessories or parts may cause the

electromagnetic lock, armature plate and associated hardware to

disengage and fall, causing serious bodily injury and property damage.

PLEASE DELIVER ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO THE

END-USER UPON COMPLETION OF THE INSTALLATION.

NOTE: All RCI electromagnetic locks must be powered with filtered and regulated DC power supplies such as the RCI 10 Series UL Listed power

supply. RCI offers a full line of power supplies and switching devices that are suitable for use with the 8300 Series locks.
