Alarm Controls - Battery Powered No Touch Request to Exit Stations

The battery powered No Touch Request to
Exit Activation Switches use infrared sensors
to reliably allow safe egress or activation of
a device with a simple hand presentation.

These request to exit solutions provide greater flexibility and
control for sensitive applications, without the need to make
costly modifications, extending touch-free access and egress
in an easy and affordable way. The NTB Series is a direct
replacement for traditional “request to exit” push buttons
and can be used to quickly upgrade existing applications
to code compliant no touch solutions using existing wiring.

Alarm Controls NTB-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What are NTB series battery powered no-touch request to exit stations used for?
NTB series stations provide hands-free egress control for access control systems. Users wave their hand near the infrared sensor to trigger door release. Common in healthcare facilities, clean rooms, and high-traffic areas where touch-free operation is preferred.
2) Are these stations compatible with all access control systems?
NTB stations provide standard relay outputs compatible with most access control panels. Check your system requirements for relay contact ratings and timing. Standard models provide form C relay contacts suitable for 12V or 24V systems.
3) How is the no-touch sensor activated?
The infrared sensor detects hand movement within 2-4 inches of the detection area. Users simply wave their hand in front of the sensor window. Detection range and sensitivity may be adjustable depending on the specific model.
4) What finishes are available for NTB series stations?
Common finishes include brushed stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and painted options. Stainless steel provides durability and easy cleaning for healthcare and food service applications. Verify specific finish options with manufacturer specifications.
5) How long do the batteries last in these stations?
Battery life typically ranges from 2-5 years depending on usage frequency and battery type. Most units use standard alkaline or lithium batteries. Low battery indicators alert when replacement is needed. Consider hardwired power for high-traffic installations.
6) Do these stations meet fire and building code requirements?
NTB stations are designed for egress applications and typically comply with life safety codes when properly installed. Verify local code requirements for exit device specifications. Some jurisdictions may require backup manual release methods.
7) What mounting options are available?
Standard mounting includes surface mount and gang box configurations. Single and double gang box mounting plates are common. Verify wall thickness and mounting surface compatibility. Check manufacturer templates for precise cutout dimensions.
8) How do you wire these battery powered stations?
Basic wiring connects the relay contacts to your access control input. Even battery powered units require low voltage wiring for the relay circuit. Follow manufacturer wiring diagrams for proper terminal connections. Use appropriate wire gauge for circuit length.
9) How do you adjust sensor sensitivity on NTB stations?
Sensitivity adjustment methods vary by model. Some units have internal trim pots or DIP switches. Others use magnetic programming tools. Adjust sensitivity to prevent false triggers while ensuring reliable activation. Test thoroughly after adjustments.
10) Are there other Alarm Controls request to exit options?
Alarm Controls offers various request to exit devices including push button stations, motion sensors, and combination units. Consider traffic patterns and user preferences when selecting exit devices for your application.
11) Can these stations work in outdoor applications?
Most NTB series stations are designed for indoor use. Outdoor installations require weather resistant enclosures and may need different sensor technology. Check IP ratings and temperature specifications. Consider hardwired power for outdoor applications to avoid battery issues.
12) What are the typical dimensions for NTB series stations?
Dimensions vary by model but typically fit standard electrical box configurations. Single gang units are commonly 2.75" x 4.5" face plate size. Check specific model dimensions and mounting templates for precise measurements and cutout requirements.
