SUREWAVE CM-325 SERIES FACEPLATE TOUCHLESS SWITCH

The CM-325 from Camden is a short-range hands-free switch that’s part of the Sure-Wave Hands-Free Switches line. This wired momentary switch comes with two infrared sensors that will detect body and hand motion. It uses Camden’s ‘microburst’ sensing technology to give the most accurate readings. The switch has an adjustable time delay of anywhere between 1 to 5 seconds and a response time of 100 MS.

As a short-range switch, it’s activation range is from 2” to 18” and it can be set to be either a failsafe or fail secure. This is a single relay switch.

Camden Door Controls CM-325-S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the activation range on the Camden SureWave CM-325 touchless switch, and will it trigger from people just walking past?
The CM-325 is a short-range hands-free switch with an activation range of 2 to 18 inches, so the user has to deliberately put a hand near the plate. It uses two infrared sensors reading body and hand motion with Camden's microburst sensing, and response time is 100 ms. For a wider catch area at a door where you want detection further out, this is not the switch to pick.
2) Can the Camden CM-325 switch be set up fail safe or fail secure on my door?
Fail-safe and fail-secure are field selectable on the CM-325, so one part covers either lock type without ordering a different model. The relay is multi-function with Event and Toggle operating modes, so you can run it as a momentary release or latch it on and off for a hold-open condition.
3) What voltage and current does the Camden SureWave CM-325 need, and can I run it off my existing access control power supply?
The CM-325 accepts 12VAC, 12VDC, 24VAC or 24VDC and draws only 40 mA, so it will sit on a standard access control or door operator supply alongside other devices. Its relay contacts are rated 3 amps at 30 V, which is what limits what you can switch directly through it.
4) Will the Camden CM-325 fit a single gang box, or do I need a double gang?
Faceplate size is an ordering choice on the CM-325: single gang, double gang, narrow (for mullions and narrow stile frames), and a 6 inch round. Pick the one that matches the box or the frame face you are mounting to. Black and stainless steel are both offered across those plate sizes.
5) Is one CM-325 enough to run both a maglock and a door operator?
No. The CM-325 is a single relay switch, so it gives you one set of dry contacts. Sequencing a lock release and an operator start off the same actuator needs two outputs, so plan on a second relay or a two-relay Camden SureWave model for that.
6) Can the Camden SureWave CM-325 be mounted outside at an exterior entrance?
Yes, the CM-325 is rated for indoor and outdoor use and is a commercial-duty device, so an exterior entry, vestibule, or covered loading door is within its application. Stainless steel plates are available if you want a harder exterior face.
7) How long does the Camden CM-325 hold the relay closed after someone waves at it?
Time delay is adjustable from 1 to 5 seconds on the CM-325. For a maglock release that is usually plenty; if you need a long hold-open for an operator cycle, use the Toggle mode instead of relying on the delay.
8) Does the Camden CM-325 touchless switch have inputs for a request-to-exit or door contact?
It takes both. REX and door contact inputs are provided on the CM-325, which lets the switch coordinate with the door position and existing egress devices rather than just firing a blind relay pulse.
9) Is the Camden SureWave CM-325 a wired switch or a wireless transmitter?
It is a wired momentary switch, hardwired for power and to its relay contacts. Wireless capability is listed for the series as well, so if you are running a battery transmitter to a receiver rather than pulling wire, confirm you are specifying the wireless configuration and not the standard wired plate.
10) What are the overall dimensions of the Camden CM-325 switch?
The CM-325 is listed at 5.5 x 5.25 x 2 inches and 0.4 lb. The 2 inch figure is the depth you need to account for behind or proud of the mounting surface, so check clearance in a shallow box or a hollow metal frame before you cut.
