EMKA offers quarter-turn locks in mini package

EMKA's 1022 programme quarter-turn locks or 'mini-locks' have the same capabilities as the larger versions but in a miniature package.

The mini-locks are suitable for small cabinets, wall-mount enclosures, access panels or other housings.

They are useful where space and design limitations demand easy operation as well as a good level of rugged serviceability, according to the company.

The 1022 programme locks are also available with additional sealing rings for applications where protection to IP65 is important; for heavy dust environments, a special dust cap can further improve the sealing capability.

The mini-locks are quick to fit and feature either a standard 14mm square hole for nut fixing or a 15 x 18mm double-D hole suitable for spring fix lock bodies, thus enabling quick installation in production situations (not to IP65).

In order to cover a range of operational needs, the 1022 programme can be supplied with cylinder locks/inserts to take square or triangular keys or slotted for screwdriver opening.

The wing-knob design is often preferred as it enables a greater turning/closure force for improved gasket pull-down and enhanced sealing.

EMKA claims that the wing-knob style also offers easier operation, such as for gloved hands.

The lock types are complemented by standard cams, which allow installers to adapt to varying door/frame depths and gasket thicknesses ranging from 7.55mm up to 19.5mm in depth.

The company offers the 1022 programme in zinc die with a black powder coat or a chrome finish, as well as in stainless steel or in reinforced polyamide.
