Electromagnetic Lock SCOT EL-600SL2, holding force 600 kg

The SCOT EL-600SL2 electromagnetic lock delivers a rated holding force of 600 kg for reliable fail-safe magnetic locking in access control installations. Designed for mounting on door frames or doors where a high holding strength is required, this unit integrates with electric access controllers to secure offices, commercial premises and apartment entrances. The lock's compact housing and durable construction support continuous operation and straightforward wiring for standard access control setups.

Advantages

The EL-600SL2 provides a strong holding force combined with a fail-safe design that releases when power is removed, satisfying common safety requirements for emergency egress. Its robust build ensures long-term performance in busy environments, while compatibility with standard electric access controllers simplifies integration into existing systems. Installation options allow fitting to various door and frame types, enabling consistent security where rated magnetic strength is necessary.

Suitable for

• Office main entrances and internal secure doors
• Commercial premises such as shops and service centers
• Apartment building entry doors and controlled residential access
• Access control systems requiring fail-safe magnetic locking
• Doors needing a holding strength up to 600 kg for enhanced resistance

Key specifications

• Holding force: 600 kg (approx. 1323 lbs)
• Operation mode: fail-safe (unlocks when power is removed)
• Mounting: suitable for frame or door mounting in typical installations
• Construction: steel/aluminum housing for continuous use
• Electrical: designed for connection to standard electric access controllers and power supplies

How to use

Mount the electromagnetic plate and armature according to mounting type and door configuration, ensuring correct alignment to achieve full holding force. Connect the lock to the access controller and appropriate power supply using the provided wiring terminals, observing polarity and voltage requirements of the access control system. Verify operation by energizing the lock to confirm secure engagement and test power-off release to ensure fail-safe function. Regular inspection of alignment, fastenings and wiring will maintain reliable performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the EL-600SL2 with a compatible access controller and a stable power supply sized to the installation. Ensure correct mechanical alignment between the electromagnet and armature plate during installation and check holding force periodically. In applications where fire or emergency egress regulations apply, confirm that the fail-safe behavior meets local codes and that emergency release devices are integrated as required.
