Touch Switch

is a general purpose switch capable of detecting near-proximity or touch. It detects tiny changes in the capacitance at the front surface.

The switch has a patented spread-spectrum charge-transfer technology. Every 80 seconds the switches self calibrate, This means that the switch can accommodate large changes in surface capacitance due to; Humidity, Nearby Objects etc.

No moving parts
Low power
Weather proof
Voltage free contacts
Self calibrating
Patented sensor technology

Designed specifically for "Request to Exit" or "Request to Enter Call" applications. The fully sealed IP66 enclosure makes it suitable for both, internal or external use.

The "Switch Plate" version will mount on any standard single gang light switch back box. Termination is by terminal block and an integral relay provides voltage free change over contacts.

The "Mullion" version comes with a pigtail connection (50 cm) and is surface mountable. The switch output is provided by an open collector transistor.
