3.1 Locking components
Locking components (AirKey cylinders and wall readers) control access at the doors.
Depending on the authorisation, the locking component enables or denies access.
3.1.1 AirKey cylinders
AirKey cylinders are battery-operated locking components. They are certified for indoor and
outdoor use. Depending on the specific requirements, AirKey cylinders may also be suitable
for use in areas that are critical to security. AirKey cylinders boast mechanical protection
from vandalism and manipulation. AirKey cylinders are suitable for installation in fire doors
and emergency exit doors
*
, providing they have been installed as per the standards.
AirKey cylinders are available as half cylinders or double cylinders. Double cylinders are
available as one-sided or double-sided access models. One-sided access models merely
feature electric authorisation components on the outside, whereas users must provide
authorisation on both sides with the double-sided access model. The electronic thumb turn
on the identification side rotates freely unless authorisation is provided. The black plastic cap
of the AirKey cylinder is the reader unit.
If users hold an authorised medium against the thumb turn, the cylinder engages briefly to
allow to turn the electronic thumb turn and operate the lock. In this context, also observe
the information on operating locking components.
Note that when the door is closed, it is not automatically locked. The door
must be locked manually or alternatively using an additional device.
Please check if the AirKey cylinder you selected is suitable for your application. The AirKey
cylinder is available in various designs and configurations for this purpose.
The required data sheets as well as the product catalogue are available on our homepage in

AirKey cylinders feature visual and acoustic signals. Please refer to the Locking components
signals section for descriptions of the individual signals.
Follow the assembly manual enclosed with the packaging during assembly of the AirKey
cylinder or the online assembly video clip at https://www.evva.com/en/airkey/website/.

The FAP anti-panic function may be required for use in emergency exit and panic doors, depending on the mortise
lock. For this purpose, please observe the corresponding information and certificates from lock manufacturers as
well as the product code in the order.
