Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and installation instructions for the E9 Quarter Turn Compression Latch, designed for secure and efficient door closure with a quarter-turn mechanism.
Specifications:
  • Material: Zinc alloy housing, powder coated or chrome plated; steel components are zinc plated.
  • Compression: 4.0 mm (0.16 in).
  • Maximum static load: 250 N (56 lbf).
  • Sealing: Complies with NEMA 4 and IP66/IP67 standards.
Dimensions: All dimensions are provided in millimeters (inches). The latch is available in fixed and adjustable grip options, with a maximum door thickness of 18 mm (0.71 in) including the compressed flange gasket.
Installation:
  • Recommended tightening torque for the mounting nut is 20 N∙m (176 in∙lbf).
  • Mounting screw torque for fixed grip is 5 N∙m (44 in∙lbf).
Operation: The latch operates with a quarter-turn actuation, rotating and compressing simultaneously to ensure consistent pre-set compression. It is tool-operated for added security.
Cam Options:
  • Standard Cam: Provides stable frame engagement and improved surface contact.
  • Protected Cam: Features a protective covering for smoother operation and reduced frame scratching.
  • Roller Cam: Reduces operating effort and minimizes frame finish scratching, with a detented feel when used with an optional keeper.
Accessories: Various cam options are available, including offset, deep offset, and straight cams, each with specific part numbers for ordering separately from the latch.
Additional Notes: The document includes part number tables for different cam types and optional accessories, such as the keeper for the roller cam, which adds 4 mm to the grip calculation.
