2 AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. An American National Standard is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer and the general public. The existence of an American National Standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the Standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Standard. American National Standards are subject to periodic review and users are cautioned to obtain the latest editions. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard is permitted to be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard no later than five years from the date of publication. Purchasers of American National Standards receive current information on all standards by calling or writing The American National Standards Institute.

3 FOREWORD (This Foreword is not a part of ANSI/BHMA A156.23) The general classification of builders hardware includes a wide variety of items which are divided into several categories. To recognize this diversity, a sectional classification system has been established. Electromagnetic locks is one such section and this Standard is the result of the collective efforts of members of the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association, Inc. who manufacture these products. The total product standards effort is therefore, a collection of sections, each covering a specific category of items. Strength, cycle, operational tests and where it has been necessary, material and dimensional requirements have been established to insure safety and stability to which the public is entitled. There are no restrictions on design except for those dimensional requirements imposed for the reasons given above. This Standard is not intended to obstruct but rather to encourage the development of improved products, methods and materials. The BHMA recognizes that errors will be found, items will become obsolete, and new products and methods will be developed. With this in mind the Association plans to update, correct and revise these Standards on a regular basis. It shall also be the responsibility of manufacturers to request such appropriate revisions. The BHMA numbers which indicate functions of electromagnetic locks do not identify size or design and are not intended to be used without necessary supplementary information. Individual manufacturer's catalogs should be consulted. 3

5 1. SCOPE 1.1 This Standard establishes requirements for electromagnetic locks and includes cyclical, dynamic, operational, strength and finish tests. This product is used for access control. 1.2 Tests described in this Standard are performed under laboratory conditions. In actual usage, results vary because of installation, maintenance, and environmental conditions. 1.3 No lock can provide complete security by itself. Locks may be defeated by forcible or technical means, or evaded by entry elsewhere on the property. No lock can substitute for caution, awareness of your environment, and common sense. Builders hardware is available in multiple performance grades to suit the application. In order to enhance security and reduce risk, consult a qualified locksmith or other security professional. 1.4 Grade Qualifications Two classifications of tests are described in this Standard, Operational and Security. Manufacturers shall indicate the Grade level. A Grade 1 product shall meet all Grade 1 criteria, a Grade 2 product shall meet all Grade 2 criteria, and a Grade 3 product shall meet all Grade 3 criteria in each classification. 2. DEFINITIONS 2.1 Electromagnetic Lock. An electrically powered lock. It locks or unlocks a door by the activation or deactivation of an electromagnet coupled to an armature Direct Pull The mounting arrangement of an electromagnetic door lock whereby an opening force applied to the face of the door is directly opposed by the attraction of the magnet and armature along an axis perpendicular to the face of the door, which is obtained when the contact plane between magnet and armature is parallel to the door face Shear Lock The mounting arrangement of an electromagnetic door lock whereby the attraction between electromagnet and armature moves one or the other (usually the smaller armature) not only into contact with each other but also into a position of mechanical restraint by a third member which prevents sliding separation (shear) of the magnet and armature along their contact plane. To unlock, the moving member is then retracted into its original resting position by mechanical, magnetic, gravitational, or other force. 2.2 Armature A plate attracted by the energized electromagnet component of the lock and when in contact with the magnet, resistant to being separated from the magnet. Also called a strike. 2.3 Indoor-Only Electromagnetic locks which are not suitable for continuous exposure to an outdoor environment. 2.4 Rated Voltage The voltage in which the electromagnetic lock is to be used and the same voltage in which the electromagnetic lock is tested under section 5.1 Strength Test. 5

6 3. GENERAL 3.1 An electromagnetic lock shall be listed or labeled by a nationally recognized independent testing laboratory, and be subject to a periodic in-plant follow-up inspection service. 3.2 Tolerances. Where only minus tolerances are given, the dimensions are permitted to be exceeded at the option of the manufacturer. 3.3 Reference to other Standards. ANSI Standards are available from the American National Standards Institute, 11 West 42nd Street, New York, NY or Values. Required values in this Standard are given in US units. The SI (metric) equivalents are approximate. 3.5 Codes. Electromagnetic locks are not permitted on some doors within a means of egress. Consult applicable building codes and ANSI/NFPA 101 Life Safety Code. 3.6 Options. When specified, electromagnetic locks shall be equipped with one or more options (consult individual manufacturer's catalogs). These shall consist of switches, special electronic circuits, or a combination of both that are utilized to monitor and indicate locked, unlocked or open door, and magnetic holding force. When supplied they shall be subject to tests as required in Use on Fire Doors. Electromagnetic locks used on labeled fire door assemblies shall be listed or labeled for fire doors by a nationally recognized independent testing laboratory, and be subject to a periodic in-plant follow-up inspection service. 3.8 Power Requirements. Electromagnetic locks shall be operated by direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current. Locks requiring power in excess of 30 VAC RMS (volts alternating current root mean square) or 42.5 VDC RMS shall be supplied with a junction box in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA TEST METHODS 4.1 Test Specimens. Locks for testing shall be selected at random from the manufacturer's finished stock. Use separate samples for each test, four total. Additional parts are also required for the Appearance Finish tests as described. No sample is required for indoor-only products in the Operational Salt Spray Test, Failure Criteria Cycle and Operational Tests. One lock shall be tested for all cycle and operational tests and failure of any one test constitutes failure of all tests in this category Dynamic Test. One lock shall be tested for the dynamic test and separation of the armature and the lock constitutes failure of this test Strength Test. One lock shall be tested for the strength test and separation constitutes failure of this test Appearance Finish Tests. One armature and one outside lock body shall be tested for each finish being tested. Failure of any part shall constitute a failure of that finish. 6
