VX2400LP

The VORTEX VX2400LP is a worldwide patented innovation. It can be surface-mounted on all types of doors, both indoors and outdoors, thanks to a unique corrosion-proof treatment and its IP43 (fixed under header) protection rating.

The VORTEX VX2400LP is a hybrid lock (electromagnetic + mechanical) smaller than an electromagnet. It guarantees extremely powerful locking; up to ten times more efficient than basic electromagnets on the market! The exclusivity of this hybrid lock resides in a “diabolo” machine-manufactured from a high-strength alloy. The latter is captured within a well using the action of a vortex of electromagnetic forces. At this stage, the locking is ensured by the kinetics of the magnetic block. In the event of an attempted intrusion, the mechanical lock is triggered. The “diabolo” is trapped in the well by the deployment of the metal balls contained in it. The VORTEX is thus capable of resisting a break-in (pressure/tension) greater than 15,000N (1,500kgf), comparable to “grade 6++”!

It features a LED and an exclusive MegaLED (patented innovation) which enhances security by facilitating visual or camera surveillance of access points. It indicates either the correct locking or open access of the door (LSS and DSS) via its red and green MegaLED.

Like all our electromagnets, the VX2400LP complies with the requirements of EN 13637 chapter 7, the voluntary European standard on managing the systems for emergency exits. This norm requires that all the actual performances of the components of the locking parts of the system appear on a standardised label. This label is applied to all of our electromagnets.

The VORTEX VX2400LP is equipped with a pressure/tension sensor. This technology allows the VORTEX to trigger an alarm (local and/or channelled) BEFORE the break-in. It is a unique system in the world of security and possesses a worldwide patent.

The HQMAG electromagnets have been designed with specific, exceptionally high quality materials according to our unique know-how, and have never been defective for 35 years and counting. This dual requirement applied to VX2400LP offers a locking intrinsically without remanence. Therefore, at HQMAG, no mechanical repeller, or electric repeller (Kick-off), with reliability that is uncertain over time is added.

Like the other HQ MAG ranges, the VORTEX features a certified anti-corrosion treatment of unrivalled quality. It also has unparalleled endurance that allows it to withstand 1 million cycles without failing. These results prove that HQ MAG products are resistant over time, unlike the infamous, planned obsolescence from which many technological products suffer.

Various accessories, designed for the installation of HQMAG electromagnets, are available both for push doors or pull doors as well as for doors made of wood, steel, aluminium, PVC, glass, and so on. Mounting the VX2400LP, with or without its accessories, is simplified thanks to an intuitive and dynamic assembly manual.
