Alarm Controls TS-30 - 2" Green Square Button, "PUSH TO OPEN", SPDT Momentary, Single Gang

The TS-30 uses an SPDT momentary switch rated at 10A. Single-pole double-throw gives you both a normally closed and a normally open side off one press, so you can break power to a mag lock on the NC contacts and simultaneously trigger an alarm shunt, door position bypass, or auto operator on the NO contacts. Momentary means the circuit changes state only while the button is held.

Yes. The TS-30 is built on a single gang plate, so it mounts to a standard single gang box or mud ring in the wall next to the opening. The button itself is a 2 inch square green illuminated button centered on the plate.

The Dortronics 5215-SPB is the nearest peer. Both are illuminated square push buttons on a single gang plate for exit release. The difference is button size and marking: the TS-30 uses a 2 inch green square button legended "PUSH TO OPEN" on a satin stainless steel plate, while the 5215-SPB from the Dortronics 5215 Series uses a 1-1/2 inch square illuminated button. If the existing cutout and plate already carry a 1-1/2 inch button, the Dortronics matches that footprint more closely; if you want the larger 2 inch target and the printed "PUSH TO OPEN" wording for public-facing doors, the TS-30 is the one.

The button is illuminated and green, marked "PUSH TO OPEN". The illumination makes it findable in a dim vestibule or after-hours corridor, and the fixed legend means no field labeling is needed for a standard egress or entry release application.

Yes, within what the switch does. The TS-30 is a momentary SPDT with 10A contacts, so it gives a dry changeover signal on press and returns on release. That is the input an auto operator, a request-to-exit input, or a timer module expects. If your application needs the lock to stay released for a set interval after the press, pair the button with a separate timer or relay module, because the button itself only holds while pressed.

The TS-30 is an SPDT momentary switch with 10A contacts, which gives you both a normally open and a normally closed set from one press - useful when the same button has to release a mag lock and simultaneously signal an alarm shunt or a controller input. If the door only needs a single break to drop a lock, a simpler exit release such as the Dortronics 5215-SPB illuminated square push button covers that duty without the second contact set. Choose the TS-30 when a second circuit has to be switched off the same actuation.

Both are single gang devices, so they share the same standard single gang back box or mud ring. What does not carry over is the button aperture: the TS-30 carries a 2 inch square button and the 5215-SPB a 1-1/2 inch square button, so the plates are not interchangeable even though the box is. Swapping between the two means changing the whole plate assembly, not just the button, and the legend changes too since the TS-30 plate is printed "PUSH TO OPEN".

The plate is 302 stainless steel in a satin stainless finish, which is the same brushed look as standard satin stainless switch plates, card reader plates, and push plates. If your building is standardized on satin stainless wall hardware, this drops into that scheme.

It is a commercial access control device. The TS-30 is meant for the release side of a commercial opening, typically wired into a mag lock, electric strike, or auto operator circuit rather than a residential doorbell or lighting application.
