Alarm Controls TS-23 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Alarm Controls TS-23 exit button fit a standard single gang box?
Yes. The TS-23 request to exit station is a single gang plate with a 430 stainless steel finish, so it drops onto any standard single gang box or mud ring. Allow 1-1/2 inches of depth behind the plate for the switch body, plus room for the 10 inch wire leads, so a shallow ring on a thin partition can be tight.
2) Can the TS-23 request to exit button be mounted outdoors?
The TS-23 uses a vandal resistant 3/4 inch metal push button rated by the manufacturer for indoor, outdoor, commercial and industrial applications. The stainless plate and metal button are what make that possible; a plastic illuminated button station would not be the part to put on an exterior wall.
3) Is the TS-23 exit station UL listed for access control?
The TS-23 is UL 294 listed and built with CSA approved components. UL 294 is the access control system units standard, which is typically what a spec or an AHJ asks for on an egress release button in a commercial building.
4) What is a comparable exit push button station to the Alarm Controls TS-23 if I want an illuminated button?
The Dortronics 5215-SPB exit release uses a 1-1/2 inch square illuminated push button on a single gang plate, so the button itself lights up and is larger and square rather than round. The Alarm Controls TS-23 uses a 3/4 inch diameter vandal resistant metal button on a single gang stainless steel plate screened EXIT, with a DPDT momentary switch rated 10A at 35 VDC. Choose by whether the opening needs a visible lit target at the door or a small hardened metal button that resists abuse.
5) If my access control panel needs two sets of dry contacts from the exit button, is the TS-23 the right choice?
Yes. The TS-23 uses a DPDT momentary switch rated 10A at 35 VDC, giving you two independent contact sets from one button for a mag lock circuit plus a shunt or alarm input. The Dortronics 5215-SPB exit release is the adjacent single gang illuminated option if you want a lit button instead.
6) Does the TS-23 button latch, or does it release only while pressed?
Momentary action only. Press it and the contacts transfer, release it and they return, so the door unlocks for as long as someone holds the button unless you feed it into a timer or relay downstream. If you need a timed unlock or a maintained hold-open, put a timer module behind it.
7) Should I use a metal vandal resistant button or an illuminated push button for a request to exit station?
Pick by location. The TS-23 with its 3/4 inch metal vandal resistant button is the choice for exposed positions, exterior walls, schools, and industrial areas where a button gets abused. Where the station sits in a controlled interior lobby and visibility matters more than abuse resistance, a larger illuminated button such as the Dortronics 5215-SPB with its 1-1/2 inch square illuminated button on a single gang plate is easier to find in low light and easier to hit.
8) How is the TS-23 wired in, and do I need extra terminals?
The switch comes terminated with 10 inch leads, so you splice to your field wiring inside the gang box with wire nuts or crimps rather than landing screws on the device. Both poles of the DPDT switch are brought out, so plan your box fill for that plus your lock and shunt runs.
9) Do the TS-23 and the Dortronics 5215-SPB both fit the same electrical box?
Both mount on a single gang plate, so the same single gang box or ring serves either one. The TS-23 needs 1-1/2 inches of switch depth behind the plate and comes terminated with 10 inch leads. Confirm your box depth before swapping either direction.
10) What does the TS-23 plate say, and does it come pre-marked?
The plate is screened EXIT from the factory, so no field labeling is needed. The button itself is a plain 3/4 inch diameter metal button, not illuminated and not colored, which is why the marking on the plate does the work of identifying it.
11) What finish is the TS-23 exit station plate, and will it match other stainless devices on the wall?
Satin stainless steel, on a 430 stainless plate. That reads the same as the US32D satin stainless finish used on most commercial door hardware and wall plates, so it lines up with standard stainless switch plates and lock trim in a corridor.
