Securitron EL-EPT Electrolynx Power Transfer
The EPT/EPTL allows an electric lock or exit device, such as a Securitron Touch Sense Bar or Handle device, to be installed while concealing the cabling on the hinge side of the door between the edge of a door and door frame. The EPT/EPTL includes a flexible steel shield approximately
5/16'' [7,9mm] (I.D.) inside diameter. The EPT/EPTL may be installed onto doors furnished with butt hinges, continuous hinges or pivots. The EPT/EPTL is not compatible with center pivot doors. Pivot type hinges must have a 3/4'' [19,0mm] offset or less.
It is recommended to edge mount the EPT/EPTL in the upper half of a steel door and the lower half of a wood door. The EPT/EPTL Lead Cover should be a minimum of 6 [152,4mm] from the middle butt hinge cutout or centered between the butt hinges. Prior to installation, ensure that you have the correct version of the EPT/EPTL for the door/frame. The EPT is used for door swing gap distances of 2-1/2 [63,5mm] or less between door edge and the door frame. The EPTL is used for longer door swing gap distances greater than 2-1/2 [63,5mm].
A simple measurement may be taken to determine the correct EPT/EPTL for the application. To measure the swing gap distance, open the door its full travel distance. Measure the distance from the centerline of the door edge to the centerline position on the door frame. If this distance is 2.5 [63,5mm] or less an EPT may be used. If the distance is greater than 2.5 [63,5mm] an EPTL must be used.
