Camden Door Controls CM-324/44S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What voltage does the Camden CM-324 touchless switch run on, and how much current does it draw?
The CM-324 SureWave switch runs on 12VAC/DC, 24VDC or 24VAC, so it can be powered off most low voltage door operator or access control supplies already on the job. Current draw is 40 mA, which is small enough to share a power supply with other devices on the opening.
2) Can the Camden CM-324 switch the door operator directly, or do I need a relay module?
One onboard relay handles it directly. The CM-324 carries a single relay rated 3 Amps at 30 V, which covers the dry contact input on a typical low voltage swing door operator or access control panel. If you need to switch line voltage or a second independent circuit, you need a separate relay downstream; this device only gives you one set of contacts.
3) How close does someone have to get for the Camden SureWave CM-324 to activate?
Activation range is adjustable from 1 inch up to 30 inches, so you can set it tight for a switch near a busy corridor or wide open for a wheelchair user approaching the plate. Time delay on the output is adjustable from 1 to 5 seconds. It uses an active infrared air sensor and holds its performance across ambient lighting conditions, including bright daylight near glass fronts.
4) Will the Camden CM-324 fit a standard single gang box?
Yes, and three other openings besides. Faceplates come in single gang, double gang, narrow (for mounting on a door frame or narrow stile where a gang plate will not sit flat), and a 6 inch round. Pick the plate that matches the box or mullion you already have, since the electronics are the same across all of them.
5) Can the Camden CM-324 be set to latch on and stay on instead of just pulsing the door open?
Yes. The relay is multi function with two operating modes, Event and Toggle. Event gives you the momentary pulse you want for an automatic door operator. Toggle latches the relay on with one wave and off with the next, which is how you would hold a door in a propped or held open state or drive a light or other load that has to stay energized.
6) Does the Camden CM-324 wave plate come in stainless steel to match the rest of my hardware?
Both black and stainless steel are offered, and each finish is available in all four faceplate sizes: single gang, narrow, double gang and 6 inch round. Stainless is the usual pick for matching push plates and pulls in a commercial lobby; black hides fingerprints better in high traffic areas.
7) Is the Camden CM-324 fail-safe or fail-secure when power drops?
Field selectable, so you set it during installation rather than ordering a different part. That matters when the opening is an egress or fire door and the inspector expects a specific behaviour on power loss: choose the setting to suit the opening instead of swapping the switch.
8) Which Camden part number do I order for a black narrow faceplate versus a stainless double gang?
The suffix tells you the plate. CM-324/44 is black single gang, CM-324/44N is black narrow, CM-324/44W is black double gang, CM-324/44S is stainless single gang, and CM-324/44SW is stainless double gang. The 44 designates the hand icon with wheelchair symbol faceplate.
9) Is the Camden CM-324 wave switch suitable for a commercial building or is it a residential device?
It is a commercial grade device, built for barrier free entrances in offices, healthcare, schools and public restrooms. The hand icon with wheelchair symbol plate is the standard marking for an accessible entrance actuator, which is why it is the common pick when a facility is standardizing actuators across a building.
10) How much space do I need behind the wall for the Camden CM-324 wave switch?
The unit measures 4 x 1 x 0.5 inches and weighs 0.4 lb, so it sits shallow. That depth is what makes the narrow plate version workable on a door frame or a mullion where you have very little cavity to work with.
