Alarm Controls TS-5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the TS-5 exit station fit a standard single gang electrical box?
It mounts on a single gang wall plate, so it lands on a standard single gang box or mud ring. The one thing to check before you cut in: the switch body projects 2-1/2 inches behind the plate, so you need that much clear depth in the wall or a deep enough box. Shallow boxes in a masonry or panel wall are where this gets caught out.
2) Is the Alarm Controls TS-5 request to exit station UL listed for access control?
Yes, it is UL 294 listed, the access control system units standard, which is what most specifications and AHJs call for on a request-to-exit device tied into an electrified lock.
3) Is the TS-5 push button ADA labeled for a barrier-free opening?
The blue 2 inch square push button carries the ADA accessibility symbol printed on the button face, which is what an inspector looks for on a barrier-free or handicap-accessible entry. Note the symbol is the labeling only; mounting height and force requirements on your opening are still governed by how you install it.
4) How does the TS-5 terminate, and do I need to add anything to wire it in?
The switch comes terminated with 10 inch colored leads, so you splice to your field wiring in the box rather than landing screws on the device. Plan for wire nuts or crimps and enough slack in the box. The station itself is the plate, button and LED; the power supply, lock or strike, and any timer or relay logic are separate items.
5) What else could I use instead of the Alarm Controls TS-5 exit button?
The closest alternative we carry is the Dortronics 5215-SPB, an exit release with a 1-1/2 inch square illuminated push button on a single gang plate. Main practical difference: the Dortronics button is 1-1/2 inch square where the TS-5 is a 2 inch square blue button with the ADA symbol on it. If the spec calls for an ADA-symbol button, stay with the TS-5; if you just need a smaller illuminated release on a single gang plate, the 5215-SPB covers it.
6) Can the TS-5 switch 120 VAC directly, or does it only handle low voltage?
The SPDT contacts are rated 10A at 120 VAC as well as 10A at 35 VDC, so the TS-5 can break a line-voltage load directly, not just a 12 or 24 volt lock circuit. If you go with the DPDT TS-5-2 instead, the contacts drop to 1A, which limits you to low-current signaling and small lock loads.
7) I need a request to exit button with a double pole output instead of single pole. What should I order?
The Alarm Controls TS-5 is offered in two switch configurations: the base TS-5 with momentary SPDT contacts rated 10A, and the TS-5-2 with a momentary DPDT output rated 1A. Both carry the same 2 inch blue square illuminated push button with the ADA symbol on a single gang plate. Choose the TS-5-2 when the access control panel needs a second set of contacts, and the standard TS-5 when a single higher current contact set does the job. The Dortronics 5215-SPB is a 1-1/2 inch square illuminated push button exit release on a single gang plate.
8) We standardize on stainless wall plates across the building. Which exit button matches?
The Alarm Controls TS-5 mounts its switch on a single gang wall plate with a 430 stainless steel, satin stainless finish, so it lines up visually with other stainless device plates in a corridor. The Dortronics 5215-SPB is also a single gang plate exit release, using a 1-1/2 inch square illuminated push button. If the button diameter is what has to match across the fleet, confirm which size is already installed before mixing the two.
9) What finish is the TS-5 wall plate, and will it match other stainless devices in a lobby?
The plate is 430 stainless steel in a satin stainless finish, which reads as the standard brushed stainless used on most commercial exit buttons and switch plates, so it sits alongside other satin stainless trim without looking off.
10) Is the TS-5 a momentary button or does it latch?
Momentary action. Press and it transfers, release and it returns, so it releases the lock only while held. If your application needs a timed release after the press, that timing has to come from a separate timer or the access control panel, not the button itself.
