Installed the Ex-lock FM-26 180 12V KM8 on a hazardous area access door. The lock’s IP66/IP68 rating and metal hose cable routing provided confidence in its durability against dust and moisture. Its holding force is solid for security needs. Absence of a position sensor wasn’t an issue for our setup. Fits well within specified temperature ranges and mechanical dimensions matched project specs accurately.
