Maintenance and Cleaning
The lock has been factory lubricated for life and is maintenance free. The use of other lubricants is not
permitted and will void the warranty.
This lock contains electromechanical and electronic components that are subject to wear and tear
depending on use and on-site installation conditions. The manufacturer has no influence on these
factors. As a result of this wear, the lock may fail at the end of its normal service life.
Interval
As needed:
Periodically, depending on frequency of
use (to be determined by the operator):
9.2
End of service life
The capacitors of the lock are required to provide the fail safe and fail secure operation when power is
lost. If a capacitor is compromised, it must be detected to ensure the failure operation can occur while
the lock is still being supplied power as it will no longer occur after power is lost.
The lock undergoes daily health checks on the capacitors. If a capacitor is found to be compromised
the failure operation will occur, based on the position of the failure mode switch. Once this occurs, the
lock will no longer operate. This operation will not work if the lock is wired using only two wires.
