Key Features
545kg Holding Force
The ML1200 offers a powerful 545kg (1200lb) holding force, ensuring that doors remain securely locked. This is particularly crucial in high-security areas and for high-traffic commercial spaces. If the maglock is the only or primary means of locking a door, then the higher the holding force the better.
Versatile Dual Voltage: 12/24V DC
The ML1200 magnetic door locks can operate at 12V DC consuming 600mA or 24V DC consuming 300mA. This flexibility allows easy integration with various power supply systems, making it versatile for different installation requirements.
Access control systems and fire alarms are as unique as the doors they are fitted on so ensure you’ve totalled the correct current draw for all products linked to the power supply unit (PSU).
