RCI 9530 Balanced Magnetic Contact/Door Position Switch

Name: RCI 9530 Balanced Magnetic Contact/Door Position Switch
Brand: dormakaba
SKU: KA_500301

The dormakaba RCI 9530 Balanced Magnetic Contact/Door Position Switch is a balanced magnetic switch supplied as a surface mount door contact and magnet set. The RCI 9530 is configured as a single pole double throw (SPDT) switch with magnetic tamper.

How it works: two Form C reed switches of different sensitivity are encapsulated in epoxy inside a solid aluminum case. When the rare earth magnet is in place and balanced, the tamper switch sits in the opposite state to the main switch, so both opening the door and adding an external magnet change the switch state.

Supervision: end-of-line resistors may be used to allow a predetermined trickle of current to flow and permit operation from a supervised line at all times. Rated 50 mA maximum at 100 VDC.

9530 Balanced Magnetic Contact/Door Position Switch
Dimensions: 3-1/2 in. W x 1-1/4 in. H x 5/8 in. D (89 mm x 32 mm x 16 mm)
Utilizes two Form C high-reliability rhodium-plated reed switches, one of the two being of different sensitivity, encapsulated in epoxy inside a solid aluminum case
When the rare earth magnet is in place and properly adjusted (balanced), magnetic tamper switch 2 is in a state opposite to switch 1
This normal configuration changes if (1) switches 1 and 3 change state through deliberate shunting of the magnetic field or opening of the door/window, or (2) an added magnetic field such as an external magnet causes magnetic tamper switch 2 to change state
End-of-line resistors may be used to allow a predetermined trickle of current to flow and permit operation from a supervised line at all times
