ROFU ROFU 8406M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What applications is the ROFU 8406M mini maglock designed for?
The ROFU 8406M is designed for lightweight sliding doors, cabinets, and access panels. The 650 lb holding force suits interior applications where moderate security is needed. Common uses include office sliding doors, retail display cases, and equipment enclosures.
2) Is this maglock compatible with both 12VDC and 24VDC power supplies?
Yes, the ROFU 8406M operates on both 12VDC and 24VDC power supplies. Verify your access control system voltage before installation. The lock will automatically adjust to the supplied voltage within this range.
3) Can this maglock be used on both left and right sliding doors?
The ROFU 8406M is reversible for both left and right sliding door installations. The mounting hardware allows for flexible positioning. Check the manufacturer template for proper armature plate alignment on your specific door configuration.
4) What finish options are available for this mini maglock?
Standard finish is anodized aluminum housing with steel armature plate. This provides corrosion resistance for interior applications. Verify finish specifications with manufacturer documentation for your specific environmental requirements.
5) How much power does the ROFU 8406M consume?
Power consumption varies by voltage. Typical draw is under 500mA at 12VDC and proportionally less at 24VDC. Calculate total system load when sizing power supplies for multiple locks or integrated access control systems.
6) Does this maglock meet fire safety code requirements?
Magnetic locks must fail-safe in fire emergencies per most codes. Verify local fire marshal requirements for your application. The lock should integrate with fire alarm systems to automatically release during emergencies.
7) What mounting hardware is included with the ROFU 8406M?
Standard package includes electromagnetic housing, armature plate, and basic mounting screws. Additional brackets may be required depending on door frame material and thickness. Verify complete hardware list in manufacturer packaging.
8) How do I properly install this mini maglock on a sliding door?
Mount the electromagnetic housing to the fixed frame and armature plate to the sliding door panel. Ensure perfect alignment when door is closed. Use manufacturer template for precise positioning. Test holding force before final installation.
9) Does this maglock require regular maintenance?
Clean contact surfaces monthly to remove dust and debris that reduces holding force. Check mounting screws for tightness quarterly. Verify proper door alignment if holding force seems reduced. No lubrication is required on magnetic components.
10) Are there larger capacity ROFU maglocks for heavier doors?
ROFU manufactures maglocks with higher holding forces for heavier sliding doors. Browse our magnetic locks category for models with 1200 lb and higher holding forces suitable for commercial sliding door applications.
11) Can this maglock operate in humid conditions?
The ROFU 8406M is designed for interior use with normal humidity levels. For high humidity areas like pool facilities or outdoor applications, verify IP rating requirements and consider weatherproof enclosures or upgraded models.
12) What are the key dimensions for door compatibility?
Mini maglock dimensions accommodate doors with limited header space. Maximum door weight should not exceed the 650 lb holding force rating. Measure door thickness and frame depth to ensure proper armature plate positioning and electromagnetic alignment.
