New digital combination lock from FDB achieves IP54

The clue or in this case the “key” is in what is says on the tin – FDB Panel Fittings are specialists in cabinet closure systems and have recently introduced another high quality lock system for equipment cabinets and personnel access doors. Their new Digital Combination Lock (IP54) is battery operated allowing the user immediate and simple keypad access without the need for a key. Users have the flexibility to set and change their personal entry code whilst a preset master code ensures that supervisor access is always available. This innovative product can be programmed for dedicated single-user or multi-user “open access” mode and is suitable for a wide range of applications, including wet areas due to its IP54 certification.

This electronic combination lock features a 4 digit unlock code with both multi-user and single-use modes, as well as 8 digit master and sub-master codes. The codes are readily changeable and fully programmable. Battery life is a minimum of 10,000 operations from 2xAAA batteries with low battery indication and power failure override by application of an external PP9 battery. Mechanically the lock features a solid zinc die housing and cam closure.
