ACSI 1320-5 Pushbutton Switches , Mushroom button, single gang, SPDT contacts, wall mount

Yes. The 1320-5 is built as a single gang, wall mount device, so it mounts to a standard single gang box or plate opening. No multi-gang ring is needed.

No. The 1320-5 is not ADA compliant, so it should not be specified as the accessible actuator on a barrier-free opening. If you need a handicap-symbol actuator, the RCI 950 Series round push plate with handicap symbol is a momentary switch made for that role.

Yes, the 1320-5 is called out for the 6100 common batch door system. That is its intended pairing.

The DynaLock 6210 Series palm switch button is the nearest peer. It is an alternate-action SPDT palm switch, which matches the SPDT contact arrangement of the ACSI 1320-5 mushroom button. The practical difference is actuation behavior: the 6210 latches alternate-action, so each press toggles and holds the state, while the 1320-5 is a single-gang wall-mount mushroom release button. Confirm which behavior your door controller expects before swapping, since a latching contact held closed will hold a maglock released until the next press.

For an accessible opening, look at the RCI 950 Series round push plate with the handicap symbol, a momentary switch in satin stainless steel. The large plate face and the applied accessibility symbol are what code officials look for on a barrier-free actuator, whereas the ACSI 1320-5 mushroom button is listed as not ADA compliant. Note the RCI 950HP is momentary, so it signals only while pressed - pair it with your operator or controller timer rather than expecting it to latch.

The ACSI 1320-5 is a single-gang wall-mount interior-style mushroom button. For an exterior or wash-down location, the DynaLock 6171 Series is a weatherproof pushbutton with a blank faceplate. Specify the weatherproof unit where the device sees rain, snow or hose-down cleaning, and keep the 1320-5 for protected interior walls.

A mushroom head like the one on the ACSI 1320-5 stands proud of the plate, so it can be hit fast with a palm or the side of a hand without looking, which is why it gets used at release and egress points. If you want a flush profile instead, the RCI 909 Series is a flush mount rocker, and the DynaLock 6210 Series is a palm switch with alternate-action SPDT contacts.

SPDT gives you a common terminal with both a normally open and a normally closed leg, so the same button can break power to a mag lock and simultaneously signal an alarm shunt or controller input. Pick the pole that matches your lock's fail-safe or fail-secure wiring.

The 1320-5 mushroom button is unlit and unmarked. For a lighted face, the Securitron PB5 Series is a medium round illuminated push button and the PB4L adds an illuminated halo around a stainless button. If the opening needs printed EXIT text, the RCI 908 Series electronic exit button carries red EXIT lettering with maintained operation.

The 1320-5 is a single gang interior wall mount device with nothing in its data covering outdoor exposure. For an exposed exterior location, look at the DynaLock 6171 Series weatherproof pushbutton instead.

The DynaLock 6115A is a one-pushbutton, 1-gang alternate-action unit from the 6000 Push Button series, so it drops into the same single-gang wall box footprint as the ACSI 1320-5 without the large mushroom head. The Securitron PB3 Series push button is another single-button release option. Choose based on the head style your occupants need to strike - the 1320-5 mushroom head is the one to keep if the button is meant to be hit with a palm or elbow rather than a fingertip.

They are not interchangeable in intent. The Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses, built as a dedicated emergency egress release. The ACSI 1320-5 is a general mushroom-head release pushbutton with SPDT contacts in a single-gang wall mount. If the authority having jurisdiction is calling for an emergency release device at the opening, specify the EEB; if you need a standard request-to-exit or door release button, the 1320-5 is the right family.

Two illuminated peers cover that. The Securitron PB4L Series is an illuminated halo with a stainless push button, and the Securitron PB5 Series is a medium round illuminated push button. Either gives you a lit target in low light, which the ACSI 1320-5 mushroom button does not provide. The trade is head size and strike area - the 1320-5 mushroom head is sized to be hit with a palm, so if the button doubles as a panic-side release you may want the larger head over the illumination.

The RCI 908 Series electronic exit button carries red EXIT text on the face and is offered with maintained operation, so the button holds its state after it is pressed. The ACSI 1320-5 mushroom button has no printed legend. Choose the 908 where you need the egress device visually identified for occupants or an inspector, and the 1320-5 where you want a plain large-head release.

Not for the same mounting. The Trine 342 is a narrow style electric door switch, built for narrow stile aluminum frames and jambs where there is no room for a standard box. The ACSI 1320-5 is a single-gang wall-mount mushroom button that needs a full gang box in the wall. Pick the 342 when the only place to put the switch is a narrow mullion or storefront stile, and the 1320-5 when you have wall space beside the opening.

Yes. The 1320-5 is sold as a single model, one mushroom release button on a single gang wall mount body. There are no finish or contact options to specify, so a fleet of doors is just a count of units.

Actuation style. The RCI 919 Series is a rotary release button with maintained operation in a satin aluminum finish, so the user turns it and it stays in position until turned back. The ACSI 1320-5 is a mushroom-head push button with SPDT contacts that is pressed rather than rotated. A rotary maintained device resists accidental bumping, which matters in a corridor; a mushroom head is faster to hit in a hurry.

No. The DynaLock 6300 Series is an audible annunciator rated 6 to 28 VDC - it makes a sound to signal a condition, it does not switch the door release. The ACSI 1320-5 is the release pushbutton itself, a mushroom-head single-gang device with SPDT contacts. The two are commonly installed on the same opening, the button to release and the annunciator to alert, but one does not stand in for the other.

The RCI 909 Series flush mount momentary rocker switch, rated 250VAC 10A in a beige finish, sits flat to the wall rather than projecting like the ACSI 1320-5 mushroom head. Flush rockers are the usual choice in tight corridors or where a protruding head would be struck by carts. Confirm your controller can work with a momentary contact, since the 909F-MO signals only while held.
