Camden CM-60 Series All-Active Switch, 6" Round Switch

CM-40, CM-41 and CM-60 Series 'All-Active' push plate switches are heavy-duty, ADA-compliant door controls. Faceplates are stainless steel or solid brass, and the assembly is designed for easy installation. The CM-41 4-1/2" square stainless steel backplate is large enough to dress-up (cover) a poorly installed electrical box. It will also fit perfectly on most 4-1/2" surface boxes.

CAMDEN PUSH PLATE SWITCHES NOW INCLUDE 'WR' WATER RESISTANCE AS STANDARD!

Features

  • ADA Compliant
  • All-Active design requires minimal actuation force
  • 4 stud switch design and rubber dampers for quieter operation

Camden Door Controls CM-60/2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Camden CM-60 switch work with my 24V door operator?
Yes. The CM-60 push plate runs on 12 or 24V AC or DC and draws 40 mA. The switch is a momentary SPDT Form C contact rated 15A at 30 VDC, so it will drive a low voltage operator input, a relay, or a mag lock release circuit. Form C gives you both normally open and normally closed poles off one plate.
2) Should I order the wired CM-60 or the version with the kinetic wireless transmitter?
Pick the kinetic wireless version when you cannot get conduit to the switch location, a retrofit through a finished wall, across a vestibule, or out to a post. The kinetic transmitter generates its own power from the press, so there is no battery and no wire run to the plate. Order the wired CM-60 when you already have a box and a home run back to the operator; it is the simpler install and the one to use where a hardwired circuit is specified. Both wiring options are offered with either faceplate graphic.
3) What is the closest round push plate actuator to the Camden CM-60 from another manufacturer?
The Locknetics PPH-100-PL is the nearest round-format peer, a large round push plate supplied with a box in a black and aluminum finish. The Camden CM-60 is a 6 inch round switch with a stainless steel faceplate, SPDT momentary contacts rated 15A at 30 VDC, and it runs on 12/24V AC/DC. If you are matching an existing round actuator opening, compare the plate diameter and the box that comes with it before ordering either one.
4) I need a built-in time delay on the actuator - does the Camden CM-60 do that, or is there a better choice?
The Camden CM-60 is a momentary SPDT switch, so the hold-open time is set by the operator or controller downstream, not by the plate. If you want the delay in the actuator itself, the Alarm Controls PD Series is a pneumatic time delay plate, and the Alarm Controls JP Series is a pneumatic time delay jumbo push plate. Those keep the timing local to the switch; the CM-60 keeps it in the door operator.
5) The spec calls for a full-height touch column at the opening - is the Camden CM-60 an acceptable substitute?
No, those are different devices. The SDC 480AA Series is a 36 inch by 6 inch Ingress-R.E.X touch panel column for ADA compliant access control, giving a tall activation surface reachable from a range of heights. The Camden CM-60 is a 6 inch round ADA-compliant plate mounted at a single point. If the drawing shows a column, a round plate will not meet it, though the CM-60 is the right part where a conventional mounted actuator is specified.
6) I cannot run wire to the actuator location - which push plate solves that?
The Camden CM-60 is offered with a kinetic wireless transmitter, which is the version to order when pulling cable to the plate location is not practical; it is also offered wired for standard installations, and both come with the wheelchair symbol or the wheelchair symbol with PUSH TO OPEN in blue. Among the comparable actuators, the Alarm Controls JP and PD plates, the Locknetics PPH-100-PL, and the SDC 480, 480V and 480AA devices are conventional wired actuators. If wireless is the deciding factor, the CM-60 is the one in this group that offers it.
7) My old push plate left a chewed up electrical box. Will the 6 inch Camden round cover it?
The 6 inch round CM-60 plate is larger than a single gang, double gang, or 4 x 4 box, so it covers the opening and the surrounding mess on any of the three. If your existing opening is a 4-1/2 inch surface box, the square CM-41 backplate in the same family is the one sized to dress that up. Either way you are not patching drywall to change out the plate.
8) Is the Camden CM-60 push plate ok for an exterior door?
Camden push plate switches now include 'WR' water resistance as standard, and the faceplate is stainless steel in a US32 / 630 finish, so it holds up outdoors and in wash-down areas. For a fully exposed exterior approach where the plate takes weather and abuse, an alternative to consider is the SDC BP Series square bollard post, offered in a 6 x 6 inch section as a 42 inch surface mount (BPS6) or a 54 inch in-ground (BPG6), which puts the actuator out in the drive lane on its own post.
9) What does 'All-Active' mean on the Camden CM-60, and does it matter for ADA?
All-Active means the entire 6 inch face is the button, not a small center target. Press anywhere on the plate and it actuates, using a 4 stud switch design with rubber dampers for quieter operation. That is what lets the plate meet ADA, a user with a closed fist, an elbow, or a wheelchair footrest can operate it with minimal force, and there is no fine motor targeting required.
10) I need a time delay on my push plate. Does the Camden CM-60 do that?
The CM-60 is a momentary switch, it closes while pressed and releases, with no built in delay. Delay has to come from the operator or a separate timer relay. If you want the delay in the plate itself, the Alarm Controls JP Series jumbo push plate and the Alarm Controls PD Series are pneumatic time delay plates, and the PD family (PD, PN, PS and PT) is built vandal resistant as well.
11) What other 6 inch round or large push plates could I use instead of the Camden CM-60?
For a straight round swap, the Locknetics PPH-100-PL is a large round push plate supplied with a box, finished black over aluminum, which is the one to look at if you want a dark plate rather than the Camden's stainless. The SDC 480 Series push plate actuators are 18 gauge stainless steel and the closest match in material. For a two-sided vestibule, the SDC 480V Series uses dual switch activation, and where you need a full height target the SDC 480AA Ingress-R.E.X touch panel column is 36 x 6 inches.
12) If the actuator is going on a square plate or a rectangular box, what should I use instead of the Camden CM-60?
The SDC 480 Series push plate actuators are the square and rectangular alternative, built in 18 gauge stainless steel. The Camden CM-60 is a 6 inch round stainless steel plate that mounts to a single gang, double gang or 4 x 4 box, so it will cover a 4 x 4 but will not match a square plate line. If the rest of the building is on square actuators, the 480 Series keeps the look consistent.
13) Is the Camden CM-60 a good choice for a high-abuse or vandal-prone entrance?
The Camden CM-60 is a heavy-duty stainless steel plate with an all-active face that requires minimal actuation force, which is what makes it comfortable for ADA use but also means the whole 6 inch face moves. Where abuse is the main concern, the Alarm Controls PD Series is specifically a vandal resistant push plate line. Choose based on whether ease of actuation or resistance to abuse is the governing condition at that door.
14) What do I use in a vestibule where two doors have to be actuated in sequence?
The SDC 480V Series is the vestibule-specific actuator, with dual switch activation for that application. The Camden CM-60 is a single SPDT momentary switch, so a vestibule built around it typically uses one plate per door with the sequencing handled by the operators. If the drawing calls for dual switching in one plate, the 480V is the direct answer.
15) Can I mount the Camden CM-60 on a post outside the door, or do I need something else?
The Camden CM-60 is a wall-mounted 6 inch round plate sized for a single gang, double gang or 4 x 4 box, so it needs a wall or a box to land on. For a free-standing actuator in a driveway or open approach, the SDC BP Series square bollard posts are the purpose-built option, offered as the BPS6 surface mount at 42 inches and the BPG6 in-ground at 54 inches, both 6 inches square. The CM-60 with the kinetic wireless transmitter is worth considering where running wire to that remote location is the obstacle.
16) Is the Camden CM-60 push plate rated for commercial traffic?
It is a commercial door control, heavy duty with a durable stainless steel faceplate, and the contacts are rated 15A at 30 VDC. That current rating is well above what a typical low voltage operator input draws, which is why the contacts are not the wear point in high traffic entries, the mechanics are, and the 4 stud switch with rubber dampers addresses that side.
