Camden CM-6030 Push-to-Lock Electronic Strike

Overview

The Camden CM-6030 is a 30VDC electronic strike engineered for door access control systems requiring push-to-lock activation with key-to-release operation. The normally open (N/O) maintained contact configuration holds the strike energized once triggered, making it suitable for fail-safe installations where the door remains locked until the strike is de-energized or manually released. Deploy this where you need a low-voltage, electrically controlled strike integrated into networked access control panels or local relay circuits.

Compatibility

The CM-6030 operates on 30VDC and interfaces with standard access control systems via N/O maintained relay output. It is compatible with typical commercial access control panels, request-to-exit devices, and electromagnetic lock circuits designed for 30VDC operation. Verify voltage and contact configuration (N/O maintained) against your specific control board or panel before installation to avoid miswiring.

Installation Notes

Mount the strike using the provided hardware in a standard single-gang electrical box or adapted enclosure. Ensure 30VDC power supply can deliver sufficient current for continuous strike holding (typically 0.5–1.5 A depending on coil resistance). Run Class 2 control wiring (UL/CSA compliant low-voltage cable) from the access control panel to the strike terminals; use shielded twisted pair if the run exceeds 50 feet to minimize induced noise. Confirm strike alignment with the keeper before final mounting to ensure smooth locking engagement. Test the release mechanism (key or manual override) under power before placing the system into service.
