Camden Door Controls CM-48-ESU-CLR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a Camden CM-48 mounting post used for on a door operator install?
The CM-48 is a 48 inch tall free-standing post you mount a push switch, keypad, card reader or other door activation device onto when the wall or jamb next to the door is not a workable mounting location. That covers open vestibules, glass fronts, wide approach paths and drive-up lanes. The dual switch prep version takes two activation devices on the one post.
2) Can the Camden CM-48 post be used wireless, or does it have to be hard-wired to the door control?
Either way. The post is prepped for hard wiring, and it can also be run wireless using Camden radio controls, which is the usual answer when you cannot get conduit out to a post sitting in the middle of a walkway or an island.
3) What voltage does the Camden CM-48 post's control run on?
It operates on 12VAC/DC or 24VAC/DC and draws 40 mA, so it drops onto the same low voltage supply already feeding most door operators and mag locks. Relay contacts are rated 3 amps at 30 V.
4) Will this post work on a fail-safe mag lock as well as a fail-secure electric strike?
Yes. The output is field selectable for fail-safe or fail-secure, so the same post serves a mag lock that must drop on power loss and a fail-secure strike that must stay locked. The relay is SPDT, single relay, with multi-function action and Event or Toggle operating modes, so you can set momentary release or maintained hold-open.
5) What finishes does the Camden CM-48 dual switch prep post come in?
Two: clear anodized aluminum (CM-48-ESU-CLR) and satin stainless steel (CM-48-ESU-SS). Camden posts as a family are offered in stainless steel or aluminum, with the aluminum available in mill, brushed aluminum or dark bronze anodized.
6) Does the Camden CM-48 accept a request-to-exit signal and a door position input?
It has inputs for REX and a door contact. That lets an integrator tie in the egress device and monitor door position on the same control, rather than running a separate module.
7) Should I pick the 48 inch post or a shorter one for a wheelchair-accessible push plate?
The 48 inch post puts the activation device at standing hand height and is the choice where you want the switch reachable from a vehicle or by someone standing. Camden also builds the same post family shorter, and the CM-42 Series is the companion height if you need the device lower. Both share the prep options, so the switch or reader you plan on will fit either.
8) How wide is the footprint of the Camden CM-48 post, and how much does it weigh?
Footprint is 5.5 inches wide by 5.25 inches, listed weight 0.4. Worth knowing before you core or bolt down in a tight walkway or a narrow refuge island.
9) Is the Camden CM-48 rated for commercial use?
It is a commercial product, part of the CM-48 Series within Camden's electronic access control line. Typical placements are building entries, healthcare corridors and parking approaches where an activation device has to stand away from the opening.
10) Where do I find mounting and wiring instructions for the Camden CM-48 post?
Camden publishes a combined CM-42/CM-48 Series manual covering installation and specifications for the 48 inch post, and it is the document to follow for anchoring and for setting the fail-safe or fail-secure jumper.
