Energize To Release Electromagnet
When activated provides a release action
When activated provides a clamping, locking or holding mechanism
Overview - Energize To Hold Electromagnet
Electrical current is required to turn the magnet ON. Power is removed to turn the magnet OFF. Pull force conversion (approximate): 1kg = 10N = 2.2lb. The outer shell of the electromagnet is a sturdy bright nickel plated cylinder, passivated with body mounting. Designed for surviving demanding holding and clamping applications. Typical applications include; door locking mechanisms for access control or security, fire door holding, medical devices , feeder systems for automated packaging machinery, pick and place equipment and power generation.
The Energize to hold electromagnet is a standard electromagnet concept - a solenoid (wound copper coil) within a high quality high permeability iron assembly for high clamping forces and low magnetic losses. The iron cylinder of the energize to hold electromagnet is of sturdy design with a bright nickel finish passivated with body mounting. Armature plates (keeper plates) exist to suit each energize to hold electromagnet unit. The energize to hold electromagnet has one central and three equi-spaced (on a PCD) tapped holes on the rear face.
Depending on the size, the energize to hold electromagnet has three styles of electrical connection:- free leads, two-pole connector and Hirschman connectors. The energize to hold electromagnet has, depending on the size, three supply voltages:- 12V dc, 24V dc and 240V ac. The energize to hold electromagnet has an ED rating of 100% and an IP rating of 54 (20 for the two-pole connector version). The energize to hold electromagnets have maximum possible pull force ratings from 113N up to 3500N (24.3lbs to 771.6lbs (11kg to 350kg)) depending on the size of unit (the actual pull achieved will depend on the application). High-quality permeable iron for low remanence.
