Features

The CFNR hinge has a built-in spring system (Elesa patent) for automatic return of the door when closing or opening.

A pin is fixed in the hinge body which holds a spring in position with a maximum closing or opening return torque of 0.30 Nm at 270°.

The torque varies progressively with the opening/closing angle of the hinge.

In specific fatigue stress tests, the return spring exceeded 15,000 cycles while maintaining the same unaltered torque value.

The maximum weight of the door with two hinges installed which allows the return of the spring is 5Kg. This value is indicative as it is the result of tests carried out on a laboratory structure measuring approximately 0.7 m x 0.7 m.

It is recommended to always check the correct operation for the intended application.

They can be installed on folded sheet metal box doors.

The deformation of the hinge at loads higher than the operating ones indicated here are such as to modify the geometry of the hinge itself, compromising its functioning.

Assembly instructions

Based on the position of the jamb with respect to the door and the desired functionality, select the hinges necessary for positions A and B by selecting the correct suffix.

  • Install the hinge body with the rotation pin on the jamb, preloading the hinge by 90° before locking the body on the surface.
  • Use screws to fix the door to the second hinge body.

Accessories

To facilitate the 90° preloading operation of the hinge and its assembly on the door, it is possible to use the tool MT-CFNR (See Fig.2): which keeps the hinge in the preloaded position during installation.
