By implementing Southco’s tried and tested gear motor technology the new EM-05 slide bolts feature high-energy efficiency and require no power draw to maintain either fully open or locked positions, and provide a reliable alternative to the traditional, but inefficient solenoid solutions
The EM-05-04 Electronic Slide Bolt series is highly versatile & provides a simplified solution to enable electronically controlled access for the control & monitoring of drawers, doors, cabinets & equipment access panels ranging from mobile pharmaceutical dispensing tablet trollies to retail cabinets and cash drawers. Sensors allow both the latch and drawer positions to be independently monitored for extra security.
At only 60x45x17mm it’s lightweight & compact size can be easily accommodated in even more challenging applications.
Utilising the increasingly popular 5 volt DC supply at no more than 400mA the power requirements match the common power supply capabilities of current designs. The EM-05-4 also offers a 100,000 cycle life and a maximum electromechanical working load of 60N.
In an even smaller package at 45x35x12.5mm the EM-05-05 offers similar performance to its slightly larger twin. Also designed for 5 volts DC this version as a maximum electro mechanical working load of 29.9N. The EM-05-05 also offers up to 4 different latching bolt orientations.
The installation & operation simplicity makes either the EM-05 or 044 Series offer a highly efficient and easily integrated choice for Zygology customers.
