Type Description
Type M8 Door Closing
Mechanism
The Class 9423 Type M8 door closing mechanism is designed to close and seal
1.125 in. deep doors of single or multi-door NEMA Type 12 enclosures. The Type
M8 can be used on doors hinged on either the left or right hand side.
Recommended door openings are from 61–91 in. Vault type handle length is 8 in.
Type M891 Locking Bar Kits
The lock bar kit for the Type M8 door closing mechanism contains two lock bars
and is available from stock. The bars can be cut to fit door openings through 91 in..
One lock bar kit is required for each Type M8 ordered.
Type M1
The Class 9423 Type M1 mechanical interlock kit is designed to interlock a Class
9422 handle mechanism with the Type M8 door closing mechanism. This kit
prevents the opening of the master door (or single door) with the disconnect handle
in the “ON” position, making it mandatory to use a screwdriver to gain entry to the
enclosure at any time, regardless of the disconnect handle position.
Table 15.38: Required Accessories for
Auxiliary Doors
Type Description
Type M2
One Type M2 kit is required for each auxiliary door. This kit is required to interlock
any auxiliary door(s) with the master door.
Type M7
The first auxiliary door requires 2 Type M7 kits. Additional auxiliary doors require
only 1 Type M7 kit. The 0.25 in. diameter rod used to interconnect the M7 kits is
furnished by the user. If the distance between any two Type M7 kits exceeds 36 in.,
an additional Type M7 kit should be installed to prevent the rod from buckling.
