Once the combination for an AR8132A Combination Lock Handle has been lost can it be recovered or changed?
Issue:

Product Line:

Environment:
All versions and serial ranges.
Cause:
Lost combination for AR8132A
Resolution :
Please see attached file:
No Combination Recovery or Reset for AR8132A Lost Combination
If lost, the combination for the AR8132A is not recoverable. The lock must be opened with the current combination before it can be reset.
Once the combination is lost the only way to open the lock is with the included master override key (key 222).
The only way to use a combination again is to replace the AR8132A whose combination has been lost.
This is also true for the combination lock handles included on the AR3200 NetShelter Colocation Cabinet.
Special note: if replacing the combination lock handle of an AR3200 with AR8132A you must reuse the hasp from the rear of the original AR3200 combination lock handle. Do not use the hasp that ships with the AR8132A, it will not work on the AR3200. The hasp on the rear of the original AR3200 door handle will unscrew. After removing it, simply swap it for the hasp on the replacement AR8132A. After completing this swap, and installing the replacement AR8132A, you will be left with the original AR3200 door handle that has an unknown combination and the hasp that came with the replacement AR8132A.
Uncontrolled if printed. Electronic Storage and Reference Recommended.                                                   REV.2 20121030

What is EcoFit?

EcoFit is a set of best practices and solutions that help you modernize your equipment and take care of electrical, critical power, cooling, and automation systems. Thanks to EcoFit, it’s possible to avoid costly expenditures on complete setups and replace selected core components instead of entire configurations. With these modernization services, it is possible to extend your assets’ lifetime and reduce the carbon footprint connected with manufacturing new products and their later installation. Leveraging an electrical equipment replacement strategy allows you to use new or second-life spare parts, contributing to the company’s savings and carbon neutrality in the business.

What are circularity services and repairability services?

EcoFit is rooted in two approaches: circularity and repairability. Both have the same goals - modernization and further decarbonization of your business. The circularity approach focuses on using materials and products for as long as possible. It includes making repairs or refurbishments and of course recycling and repurposing materials. Repairability is a standalone approach that focuses specifically on repairing products and equipment to prolong their usability.

How can our retrofit services help your business?

By implementing an electrical equipment replacement strategy, it is possible to introduce cost savings and sustainability to your business. Repaired or refurbished products are much cheaper than if we were to purchase new ones. As a result, this is a money-saving approach that in the long run, can greatly increase revenues, especially if we make significant progress in electrical equipment life extension. Other important benefits are improved efficiency and compliance. New components that we add to the equipment are usually more efficient since they are based on new technology. It translates into reduced operating costs and energy savings. Some businesses and industry sectors need to make sure that their equipment is fit to a certain standard. With such a digital optimization, you can stay in compliance with regulations.
