Adams Rite 4606 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Adams Rite 4606 transformer power my 7100 electric strike?
Yes. The 4606 plug-in transformer is built for Adams Rite electric strikes and is listed as compatible with the 7100, 7160, 7170, 7400 and 7800 Series. It converts 115 VAC wall power down to 24 VAC for those strikes and for electrified exit devices and electronic trim.
2) Does the Adams Rite 4606 need to be hardwired, or does it plug into an outlet?
It plugs straight into a standard wall outlet, so no junction box or line-voltage wiring is needed on the input side. You still run the 24 VAC output wiring to the strike or electrified device. Mount it near the devices being powered and leave clearance for plug access and ventilation.
3) Is the 4606 output AC or DC, and will my electric strike buzz on it?
The 4606 delivers filtered and regulated DC to the connected strike, which is what gives silent operation. AC-driven strikes hum; that is why Adams Rite specifies this unit for quiet installs on office and lobby doors.
4) Is the Locknetics RDB4 relay board an alternative to the Adams Rite 4606 transformer for powering electric strikes?
No, those two do different jobs. The Adams Rite 4606 is a plug-in transformer that converts 115 VAC from a standard wall outlet to 24 VAC for Adams Rite electric strikes, electrified exit devices and electronic trim. The Locknetics RDB4 is a 4 output relay distribution board, so it switches and distributes signals to devices rather than supplying the 24 VAC source itself. On a job that needs multiple outputs switched from one input, the RDB4 works alongside a power source, not in place of the 4606.
5) I need to get 24 VAC power through a swinging door to the lock - does the Adams Rite 4606 do that?
No. The Adams Rite 4606 is the power source: it plugs into a wall outlet and steps 115 VAC down to 24 VAC for the opening's electronic hardware. Carrying that power from the frame across to a door leaf is a separate part. The RCI 9500/9501 mortise pin transfer is built for that transfer, is rated 1.5A at 24 VAC and uses a tamper-resistant design. On an electrified swinging door you would typically use a transformer for the supply and a transfer device for the crossing.
6) Is the Adams Rite 4606 transformer UL listed for commercial access control?
Yes, the 4606 is UL listed and is rated for commercial use. That matters on institutional and multi-family jobs where the electrical inspector wants a listed power source feeding the door hardware.
7) Is a plug-in transformer like the 4606 enough, or do I need a full access control power supply?
The 4606 fits small-scale work: one or a few doors, a retrofit electric strike, an electrified deadlatch or entry trim where there is an outlet nearby. Once you are distributing power to multiple openings and switching it through relays, you move to a panel-mounted supply with a relay distribution board, such as the Locknetics RDB4 four-output relay board. The 4606 is the single-drop solution, not a head-end.
8) Can I use the 4606 to power an electrified exit device or electronic trim, not just a strike?
Yes. Along with Adams Rite electric strikes, the 4606 is applied to electrified exit devices, electronic deadlatch systems and entry trim electronic functions. Size your output wire gauge to the total load of whatever you hang on it and wire per each device's diagram.
9) Will the Adams Rite 4606 power a touchless actuator or a request-to-exit switch?
The Adams Rite 4606 is specified as a 24 VAC supply for Adams Rite electric strikes, electrified exit devices and electronic trim, so matching voltage and current draw is the first check for any other device. Some access control accessories are not powered by a transformer at all: the Command Access REX-KIT-ML is a field-installable request to exit switch kit for ML1-Series mortise locks, and the LCN 8310-3803 is a 3V wireless conversion kit for jamb mount touchless actuators, which runs on its own 3V supply rather than 24 VAC. Confirm the device's listed voltage before tying it to the 4606.
10) Can the 4606 be mounted on a wall or in a panel instead of just hanging off the outlet?
Both. The 4606 supports wall or panel mounting, and it carries an LED power indicator so a tech can confirm at a glance that the door hardware still has power without pulling a meter out.
11) I have a 24VAC mortise pin transfer on the door. Is that on the same power as the 4606?
Same voltage class, yes. The RCI 9500/9501 mortise pin transfer is a 1.5A 24VAC device, so it sits on the same 24 volt bus the 4606 feeds. Total up the current draw of every device you are putting on one transformer before you commit to a single unit.
