Kantech P225-COVER Protective Reader Cover
Overview
The P225-COVER is a protective black cover designed specifically for Kantech's ioProx P225-series proximity readers (P225XSF and P225W26 models). This cover shields the reader from dust, moisture, and environmental debris while maintaining proper reader alignment and uninterrupted Wiegand communication. Install this where reader protection matters: outdoor door frames, high-traffic corridors, loading docks, or any mounting scenario where environmental exposure degrades reader lifespan without affecting form factor or electrical performance.
Compatibility
The P225-COVER fits only the Kantech ioProx P225XSF and P225W26 proximity readers. Both models support 26-bit Wiegand and Kantech Extended Secure Format (XSF) encoded cards, with read ranges from 16.5 cm to 29 in depending on card type and installation distance. The cover maintains full electrical continuity with the reader's quick-connect terminal blocks, so no wiring changes or adapter boards are required. Compatible with Kantech door controllers (such as the 2500 series) and EntraPass Security Software for centralized credential and access policy management.
Installation Notes
The P225-COVER is engineered with precise tolerances to seat flush on the P225 reader faceplate without gaps or misalignment. No tools are required for installation — the cover simply slides or clips into position over the existing reader. Verify reader mounting hardware (single gang box or mullion bracket) is secure before installation. The cover does not affect the reader's piezoelectric buzzer, bicolor LED indicator, or card-read performance; all feedback and authentication functions remain fully operational. Environmental rating follows the ioProx reader's weatherproof design specifications for both indoor and outdoor deployments.
