TechTalk - What is the difference between the LE and A designation on the dormakaba ED100/250 Product description?


All drive systems are supplied as Low-Energy version.

Which means that the opening and closing speed range is restricted to a certain limit, these limits comply with EN 16005.

The respective limits depend on the prevailing door-leaf width and door-leaf weight and may vary between 1° and 27° per second. We would still recommend the swing path to be monitored by safety sensors (mounted onto the door leaf)

These units are identified by the LE reference in our model and package codes.

 If you need a higher driving speed, you will require the respective Full-Energy Upgrade Card.

The driving speed may then be increased to a maximum of 50°/second with the ED 100 and to 60°/second with the ED 250. In this case operating in full energy mode the swing path has to be monitored by safety sensors (mounted onto the door leaf)

These units are identified by the A reference in our model and package codes.
