BEA BEA-10SWITCH1076 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How wide a gap can a BEA 10SWITCH1076 door position switch tolerate between the switch and the magnet?
The 10SWITCH1076 is the 0.75 to 2 inch gap model. That range is measured between the switch body in the frame and the magnet in the door, so it covers openings where the door sits back from the jamb or where an astragal or weatherstrip pushes the two halves apart. Hold the gap inside that window through the whole swing, not just at the last inch of closing, or the reed will drop out early and report the door open.
2) Which BEA door position switch do I use for a tight-fitting door versus a wide gap?
Three gap ratings split the line. 10SWITCH75 covers a 0.5 inch gap, for a door that closes tight to the stop. 10SWITCH1076 covers 0.75 to 2 inches, which is the usual pick for commercial frames with weatherstrip or a slightly recessed door. 10SWITCH1084 handles a 2 inch gap and comes with a surface mount terminal strip rather than a flush body, so it's the one to specify when you can't drill the frame or you want screw terminals instead of flying leads. Measure the actual closed-door gap first, then pick the model that brackets it.
3) Can I wire a BEA 10SWITCH1076 to an alarm panel that needs a normally closed loop?
Yes. The contact is SPDT with both normally open and normally closed available, so you land on whichever pair the panel expects. Alarm and monitoring panels usually want a closed loop that breaks when the door opens; access control and automatic operator logic often wants the open contact that makes on close. One switch covers either, and the third leg is there if you need to feed two different inputs from the same door.
4) Is a magnetic reed door position switch enough for monitoring an emergency exit door in a commercial building?
For reporting whether the door leaf is open or closed, yes. The 10SWITCH1076 is a commercial-rated magnetic switch and exit monitoring is one of its intended uses. What it does not tell you is whether the latch or bolt is actually thrown. If your requirement is secure-and-locked confirmation rather than door-closed confirmation, you need a latch or bolt monitoring switch in the device itself, and the position switch is the complement to it, not the replacement.
5) Do I need a separate magnet for the BEA 10SWITCH1076, or does it come as a pair?
A magnetic position switch works as two pieces: the reed switch that goes in the frame and the magnet that goes in the door edge opposite it, and the 0.75 to 2 inch rating describes the separation between those two halves. Plan the door-edge bore alongside the frame bore when you lay out the opening, and run your wiring to the frame side only, since the magnet half is unwired.
6) Can I standardize on one door position switch across a whole facility with different frame types?
Not on one model. The 10SWITCH1076 covers 0.75 to 2 inch gaps, which is a wide enough band to take most flush-mounted commercial openings in a building, but tight-closing doors below that fall to the 10SWITCH75 at 0.5 inch, and frames you cannot bore need the surface mount 10SWITCH1084. Practically, spec the 1076 as the house standard for bored frames and carry the other two for the exceptions. All three are the same magnetic switch technology with the same open/closed reporting, so your panel wiring and programming stay consistent across the fleet.
7) Will a recessed magnetic door switch stay reliable on a high-traffic door that gets cycled all day?
The contacts on the 10SWITCH1076 are plated to resist sticking and freezing, which is the failure mode that takes reed switches out on doors that cycle constantly or sit in cold vestibules and loading areas. Being flush mounted in the bore also keeps it out of the way of carts and door swing, so there's no exposed housing to knock loose. The one thing to get right on a busy opening is magnet alignment across the full swing, because a sagging leaf will walk the magnet out of range long before the switch itself wears out.
