EPT-SC SERIES ELECTRICAL POWER TRANSFER FOR SWING CLEAR

HINGED DOOR APPLICATIONS - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1 DESCRIPTION

The EPT-SC allows an electric lock or exit device, such as a Securitron Touch Sense Bar or Touch

Sense Handle, to be installed while concealing and protecting the cabling between the hinged

edge of a door and its door frame. The EPT-SC provides a flexible steel shield conduit which is

approximately 5/16” [7,9mm] I.D. (inside diameter). The EL-EPT-SC is furnished with a wire

harness already installed which includes ElectroLynx® connectors at each end.

The EPT-SC power transfer device has been specifically designed and configured for installation

on doors using Swing Clear type hinges.

Note: The EPT-SC will NOT work on doors utilizing center pivot type hinges.
