2000 / 2400 / 2500 Series
Switch Control
Application
Model 2000, 2400 and 2500 Series switch controls provide fully mechanical pushbutton
access control for electrically operated equipment. After entering the correct combination,
the thumbturn may be activated once before returning to locked mode. Depending on the
model, the thumbturn may open or close a momentary or maintained switch, or trip a timed
switch that remains energized for an adjustable length of time. Designed for surface
mounting on a wall or in a wall, any distance from the device being controlled.
Model 2000, 2400 and 2500 Series switch controls are ideal for limiting access to elevators,
parking garages, gates, magnetic locks, and electric strike doors such as apartment
building entrances, alarm systems or any other security sensitive electrical equipment
that incorporates a latching relay (Models 2000-3, 2410, 2420, 2510, 2520), or does not
incorporate a latching relay (Models 2000-1, 2430, 2440, 2450, 2530, 2540) in a commercial,
industrial, or residential setting.
The switch controls are perfect for locations with regular personnel turnover such as data
processing centers, employee entrances, service elevators, R&D labs, and restricted
areas in hospitals, offices, hotels and airports. Can be used as a convenient and secure
reset switch on equipment such as escalators, elevators, and machinery for use after an
emergency shutdown.
Model 2500 is especially suited as a remote alarm station, with two LEDs to indicate whether
the system is armed or disarmed.
