Introduction to the difference between cathode lock and anode lock

March 13 , 2023

The cathode lock is locked or unlocked by the principle of pushing or pulling the release lever generated by electromagnetic force. The general name of the electric lock is that it usually works by electromagnetic force generated by electromagnetic force. There are two working modes of cathodic locks: one is power-off lock type, that is, the lock tongue cannot be opened when there is no power on, otherwise the lock can be unlocked when power is on; power-off unlock type, that is, the lock tongue can be opened when power is on, Otherwise power on and lock

Cathodic lock: The general cathodic lock is the type that opens the door with electricity (such as: electric control lock). Suitable for one-way door opening. The installation of cathode lock must be equipped with UPS power supply. Because the female lock locks the door during a power outage. Anodic lock: Anodic lock is a power-off door opening type, (such as: electric mortise lock) in line with fire protection requirements. It is installed on the upper part of the door frame. Different from the electromagnetic lock, the anode lock is suitable for two-way wooden doors, glass doors, and fire doors, and it has a door magnetic detector itself, which can detect the security status of the door at any time.


The working principle of the cathode lock is similar to that of the anode lock (electric mortise lock). Compared with cathode locks, cathode locks and anode locks are used in a smaller range, and are usually used for the installation of ordinary wooden doors. The bolt of the wooden door is clamped by the notch of the cathode lock to achieve the function of locking the door. The cathodic lock is a supporting product of the access control system. It is generally installed on the door frame to lock the mechanical deadbolt; the cathodic lock can be widely used in office buildings, wooden doors, stainless steel doors, fire doors, community entrance and exit gates, and anode mechanical locks Or the ball lock is used together.


There are two working modes of cathodic locks: one is power-off lock type, that is, the lock tongue cannot be opened when there is no power on, and otherwise the lock can be unlocked when power is on; power-off unlock type, that is, the lock tongue can be opened when power is on, Otherwise, power on and lock. The general cathodic lock is the type to open the door when it is powered on. It is suitable for one-way wooden doors. It is recommended to install a cathodic lock with a UPS power supply, because the cathodic lock locks the door when the power is off.


Installation method

Step 1 determine the position of the lock body

Step 2: Groove and dig holes on the door frame according to the size of the installation template or lock body. Packaging components: lock body, hardware bag, manual

Step 3: After confirming that the wiring is correct, try to install the lock body on the door frame. Close the door and make sure the deadbolt is not putting too much pressure on the catch

When the above operations are completed, make sure there is no problem, and then tighten the screws to complete the installation

Note: terminal block

Note: The voltage input terminal has no polarity.


Advantages of cathode lock

The main force-bearing parts such as the internal structure connecting rod of the cathode lock bolt are all made of stainless steel, which is particularly strong and durable. The coils are all made of insulating oil, which is more durable than other manufacturers. The surface technology is finely ground, polished, and high-temperature paint, which is more wear-resistant and durable. Can withstand 800kg thrust; alloy lock body; stainless steel bolt; passed 100,000 times of aging test; anodized hardening electroplating treatment, durable and beautiful; the surface of the lock body is sandblasted and anode hardened; the coil can be continuously energized for use.


cathode lock


Why is it so windy on site after installing the cathode lock that it cannot be opened?

(1) The cathodic lock is constructed in the way of mechanical interlocking operation. If the mechanical bolt of the door frame is close to the cathodic lock, the door must be slightly pushed to close the door so that there is a distance between the mechanical bolt and the cathodic lock tongue before it can work normally. open the door.

(2) Due to structural problems, this problem occurs in all factories today, and a gap between the door frame and the door should be reserved during installation.

(3) If the on-site environment is as above, it is better to recommend the customer to use "magnetic lock".

After the cathode lock is installed, check whether the power supply is normal, whether the controller wiring mode: NO, NC, and contacts are correct, and check whether the gap between the cathode lock tongue and the mechanical lock tongue is appropriate.
