Includes a 120vac electrical interlock with push button and in-use indicator light. Interlocks allow only one door open at a time to reduce clogging and enhance safety during peak usage periods. User must unlock the door by pressing the button then operating the latch or handle separately. Interlocks are designed to be normally locked so that in a power failure doors can not be opened. This also allows all doors to be locked out by turning off the power switch when working beneath the chute, greatly reducing liability and injuries. Our 120vac Electrical interlocked chute intake doors are engineered for use on 120vac 60hz line voltage therefore the intake door electrical panels and components are UL listed. Wiring is to be in conduit in most applications. Check with your local building authority regarding installation requirements. Requires SKU #500282 manual switch and power supply for operation. When ADA compliance is required these doors can be customized with ADA compliant lever handles. Other accessories available include key locks, foot operation, and more.
