Alarm Controls RP Series - LED Illuminated Remote Plates - RP29 Single Gang, Stainless Steel Wall Plate

Both are single gang stainless steel remote plates with one green LED. The difference is LED size: the RP-29 carries a 1/4 inch green LED, the RP-29L a 1/2 inch green LED. Pick the larger LED where the plate has to be read from across a lobby or corridor; the 1/4 inch is fine at close range.

Yes. The RP-29 is a single gang wall plate, so it mounts to a standard single gang back box or mud ring. It is a remote indicator plate only, not a switch, so plan the box for the LED wiring alone unless you are ganging it with other devices.

The RP Series covers more than the green LED single gang plate. Slimline plates are offered as well as single gang, plates come with or without a mounting hole for a button or cylinder, and LED size and color vary across the series. If you need a red indicator, a slimline mullion mount, or a plate with a hole punched for a separate device, specify that variant rather than the RP-29.

The ACSI 1340-1 is a single gang wall mount indicator with one LED available in red or green, which covers the case where the RP-29's green LED is not the status color you want. It is the comparable single gang LED annunciator from another manufacturer.

No - the RP-29 and RP-29L are indicator plates, not release stations. The LED shows status only; there is no switch behind it, so it will not release a mag lock or strike on its own. The ACSI 1340-1 is the same class of device, a single gang wall mount LED indicator. For a release you need a separate push button or request-to-exit station wired to the access control, and the RP-29 wired alongside it at 12/24 VDC to annunciate the condition.

The Alarm Controls RP series is a commercial line that gives you a consistent satin stainless steel look across the building, with single gang and slimline plates, versions with or without a mounting hole, and a choice of LED size and color across the series. The RP-29 and RP-29L cover the single gang stainless plate with a 1/4 inch and a 1/2 inch green LED respectively, both at 12/24 VDC. The ACSI 1340 series covers the single gang wall mount LED indicator in red or green if you need to mix a second source into the same program.

Step up to the RP-29L, which uses one 1/2 inch green LED on the same single gang satin stainless steel wall plate at 12/24 VDC. That doubles the lens diameter over the RP-29 without changing the gang size or the plate material, so it drops into the same single gang box. The ACSI 1340-1 is also a single gang wall mount indicator with one LED, offered in red or green, if the color matters more than the lens size for your application.

It is a commercial grade device, built for access control installs in offices, schools, healthcare, and multi-family common areas. Stainless construction holds up better than a plastic residential plate in a high traffic corridor.
