SECO-LARM ELECTROMAGNETIC LOCK
Installation Notes:
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, L-brackets, and/or spacer plates.
Please see the diagram on page 3 to decide if a particular application requires any mounting
accessories. See page 7 for a complete list of SECO-LARM 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.
Installation:
1. Fold the mounting template along the dotted line to
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.

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.
3. Place the template against
the door and frame. Mark
where the holes are to be
drilled.

6. Depending on the type of door being protected, drill holes according to the diagrams below:
Solid Core Door
Reinforced Door
Hollow Metal Door
5/8” (16mm)
5/16” (8mm)
1/4” (6.8mm) for M8x1.25 thread
1/2” (12 .7mm)
5/16” (8mm)
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.
Drill a 5/16” (8mm) dia. hole through the
armature-plate side of the door for the
armature screw. Then drill a 5/8” (16mm)
dia. hole for sexnut screw on the
opposite side of the door.
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.
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.

The rubber washer will be
sandwiched between the
two metal washers.

Tip: Use a thread-locking compound
on the armature screw to ensure
a long-lasting installation.

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.

10. Once the position of the mounting plate is correct,
use the four long self-tapping screws to permanently
mount the mounting plate.
11. Drill the cable access hole. Run the power leads
through the cable access hole in the mounting plate
and through the hole in the door frame.
Long self-tapping screws
13. Push the electromagnet against the mounting plate
so the electromagnet ends are flush with the ends of
the mounting plate. Use the Allen wrench to screw
the hex-head mounting screws through the bottom
of the electromagnet into the mounting bracket.
12. Remove the cover from the front of the
electromagnet. Run the power leads through the
large cable access hole .
Skip this step for E-941SA-300. Power leads are
pre-installed. Faceplate does not detach.
14. Cut the wires so they are long enough to connect
with the terminal block. Set the voltage using the
selection jumpers based on your input voltage.
15. Connect the power wires according to the wiring
diagram on page 7. Test the unit. Then replace the
front cover and install the hex-head tamper caps.
Voltage Selection Jumpers
Position a jumper over
the two middle pins for
24VDC operation
Position two jumpers
on all four pins for
12VDC operation
NOTE: Failure to correctly set the input voltage may cause
damage to the lock.
NOTE: Connect switching devices like push-to-exit
switches between the power source and the positive
terminal on the lock. Connecting switching devices to the
negative terminal may cause a delay in unlocking.
NOTE: This should be the very last step, as once the
tamper caps are in place they are very difficult to remove.

SECO-LARM ELECTROMAGNETIC LOCK
Troubleshooting:
Door does not lock
Check to make sure the wires are securely tightened to the terminal block.
Bond status LED does not Illuminate
Check that the power supply is connected and operating.
Use a meter to check the resistance of coils inside the lock. See below.
Make sure the rubber washer is installed and free from damage.
Door locks, but can easily be forced open
Make sure the electromagnet and armature plate are properly aligned.
Make sure the contact surfaces of the electromagnet and armature
plate are clean and free from rust.
Check the power leads with a meter, and make sure 12VDC or 24VDC is
present.
Use a meter to check the resistance of coils inside the lock. See below.
Make sure the rubber washer is installed and free from damage.
The electromagnet is fitted with a metal oxide varistor to prevent
interference, so do not install a second diode.
Delay in door releasing
No relay output
Check that the power is connected properly and turned on.
Make sure the lock is aligned properly.
Make sure the NO/NC/COM are wired properly.
If the Electromagnet has low or no holding force, check the resistance of the coils by
performing the following steps:
1. Remove the faceplate from the lock.
Wire Harness:
2. Disconnect the wire harness from the circuit board.
3. Using a meter, measure the resistance across:
Red / Green wires, and the Black / White wires.
4. Each coil should test at 48 ±10%.
White
48 ±10%
48 ±10%
Black
Green
Red
5. If one or both of coils shows an open, short, or incorrect
resistance, replace the electromagnet.
