Description
FAAC C720/C721 Electromagnet – 63001245
Genuine FAAC replacement electromagnet for FAAC C720 and C721 sliding gate operators.
The 63001245 electromagnet forms part of the operator’s internal locking system, providing the electromagnetic action required for the locking mechanism during powered operation.
Ideal for replacing a faulty, damaged or failed electromagnet in an existing FAAC C720 or C721 operator.
FAAC Part Number: 63001245
🧲 Electromagnetic Locking Component
The 63001245 is an internal electromagnetic component associated with the locking mechanism of the C720 and C721 sliding gate operators.
It operates electrically as part of the operator’s internal mechanism and should not be confused with the magnetic limit switches mounted along the gate rack.
⚙️ Designed for C720 & C721
FAAC specifically identifies part number 63001245 for:
- FAAC C720
- FAAC C721
The same electromagnet assembly is used across compatible versions of both operator families.
🔧 Replacement Spare Part
Replacement may be required where the original electromagnet has:
- Failed electrically
- Developed an intermittent fault
- Sustained physical damage
- Developed damaged wiring or connections
- Failed as part of the operator’s locking system
Correct diagnosis is recommended before replacing the electromagnet, as faults elsewhere in the release, control or mechanical system can produce similar symptoms.
🔓 Works with the Manual Release System
The C720 and C721 incorporate a manual release mechanism that allows the operator to be disengaged when manual gate movement is required.
The electromagnet forms part of the internal locking arrangement, while the manual release components provide the mechanical means of disengaging the operator.
FAAC lists the electromagnet and manual release assembly as separate spare parts.
⚡ 24V Operator System
The FAAC C720 and C721 are low-voltage sliding gate operators, and the 63001245 electromagnet is designed specifically for this operator platform.
Using the correct replacement component maintains the original internal locking arrangement of the operator.
🧰 Genuine FAAC Spare Part
Part number 63001245 is the genuine FAAC replacement electromagnet specified in the C720 and C721 spare-parts documentation.
It is supplied as a direct replacement for the corresponding original electromagnet assembly.

FAAC identifies the same 63001245 electromagnet assembly in the spare-parts documentation for both operators.
🧲 Not the Gate Limit Magnet
The 63001245 electromagnet should not be confused with the magnetic limit-switch components used to determine the gate’s open and closed positions.
These are separate systems:
- 63001245 – Internal C720/C721 electromagnet
- 63001035 – Rack-mounted magnetic limit stops
The 63001245 is an electrically operated internal component of the operator, while the limit magnets are positioned externally on the gate rack.
⚠️ Please Note
This listing is for the FAAC 63001245 C720/C721 Electromagnet Assembly.
It does not include the complete operator, motor, control board, manual release mechanism or rack-mounted limit magnets unless specifically stated.
Electrical and mechanical faults elsewhere within the operator can sometimes produce symptoms similar to a failed electromagnet. Correct fault diagnosis is recommended before ordering replacement components.
Power to the gate operator should be isolated before carrying out internal servicing or replacing electrical components.
