PXL Connector Tolerance Notification
Keri has switched to a new connector vendor for our PXL and Entraguard
controllers. The new connector has a better interlocking mechanism between
connector plug and socket, providing a more secure connection.
Keri extensively tested the interconnectivity of the two vendors and found
no issues. However if both connectors are at the far end of their tolerances it
appears that the mechanical connection between the two vendors can be
affected. Because of this, Keri strongly recommends you do not mix the
two connector types in an installation.
All PXL and Entraguard controllers are shipped with an installation kit that
has all the correct connectors necessary for that controller. If you are
replacing an existing controller with a new controller in an installation,
please replace the connectors on the existing wiring with the connectors
provided with the new controller. This will eliminate the tolerance issue
between connector manufacturers and ensure good seating between the connector plug and socket.
Please refer to page 2 of the attached document for information on
how to distinguish old manufacturer from new manufacturer connectors.
