Alarm Controls RP-28 Series - Single Remote Station Wall Plate with Red LED

The 1/4 inch LED works on either 12 or 24 VDC. Draw is 8mA at 12 VDC and 12mA at 24 VDC, so it adds almost nothing to an access control power supply budget. The LED comes with flying leads for wiring.

Four models. RP-28 is one 1/4 inch red LED. RP-28BI swaps in a 1/4 inch bi-colored LED, useful when you want to show two states such as locked and unlocked from one point. RP-28FLASHING is a 1/4 inch flashing LED for an alarm or door-held-open indication. RP-28L is a larger 1/2 inch red LED for viewing from further down a corridor.

The Alarm Controls RP-28 carries a 1/4 inch red LED, and the series also includes the RP-28BI with a single 1/4 inch bi-colored LED if you need two states from one indicator. If you want a dedicated green indicator instead, the ACSI 1340-1 is a single gang wall mount indicator offered with one LED in red or green. Both are single gang plates, so the box and cutout are the same either way.

The RP-28 family is an indicator station. Each model carries a single LED on the plate, red, bi-colored, flashing, or the larger 1/2 inch red. If you need a release button at that location, you want a remote pushbutton station rather than an RP-28.

ACSI's 1340 Series 1340-1 is the closest alternative we carry: a single gang wall mount indicator with one LED, available red or green. The RP-28 differs in that the red LED is fixed by model, with separate part numbers for bi-color, flashing, and the larger 1/2 inch lens.

The LED terminates in flying leads, so you land it on the output of your access control board, relay, or power supply rather than screw terminals on the plate. Feed it 12 or 24 VDC; the draw is 8mA and 12mA respectively, low enough for most auxiliary outputs to carry directly.

Within the Alarm Controls RP-28 family, the RP-28L carries one 1/2 inch red LED instead of the 1/4 inch LED on the standard RP-28, and the RP-28FLASHING uses a 1/4 inch flashing LED to draw attention. The comparable ACSI 1340-1 is a single gang wall mount indicator with one LED in red or green. If sightline distance is the concern, the larger 1/2 inch lens or the flashing version addresses it without changing the single gang plate size.

The plate is satin stainless steel, so it sits alongside common stainless device plates and lever trim without standing out. There is one finish across all four LED versions.

It is a commercial-duty device, sold as part of an electronic access control system. Typical use is a remote annunciation point for door status at a guard desk, reception counter, or nurse station wired back to a 12 or 24 VDC access control supply.
