Camden Door Controls CM-221/A42 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Camden ValueWave CM-221 touchless switch be mounted outside on an exterior entrance?
Yes. The ValueWave CM-221/222 switches are IP 65 rated for indoor or outdoor use, and the operating range runs from 14 F to 122 F (-10 C to +50 C). If your site drops below 14 F in winter, that lower limit is the number to check against, not the IP rating.
2) Can I wire the CM-221 touchless switch directly to a door operator, or do I need an intermediate relay?
It has one onboard relay, rated 1 amp at 30 VDC, with multi function relay action. That dry contact is enough to trigger a low voltage automatic door operator or an access control input directly. Anything switching line voltage or a load above 1 amp needs an interposing relay between the switch and the load.
3) Which faceplate size of the Camden ValueWave switch fits a narrow aluminum storefront mullion?
Three plate sizes are offered: narrow (/N), single gang, and double gang (/W), all in satin stainless steel. On a narrow storefront stile or mullion the /N narrow plate is the one that fits; single and double gang plates want a standard gang box location on a wall or wide jamb.
4) What do I have to specify when ordering a Camden CM-221/A42 wave switch?
Three choices. Faceplate size (narrow /N, single gang, or double gang /W), illumination (red/green or blue/green), and whether the CP-PS13v3 power supply comes with it. Part numbers follow the same logic: CM-221/A42N is the narrow plate without a supply, CM-221/A42W-P3 is double gang with the power supply.
5) Does the A42 faceplate meet the accessibility signage a barrier-free entrance needs?
The A42 graphic carries a hand icon, 'Wave to Open' text, and the active wheelchair symbol, so it reads as both an operating instruction and an accessible entrance marker. That combination is the usual choice for barrier-free door openings in healthcare, education, and public buildings.
6) Is the Camden ValueWave switch a capacitive touch plate or a true no-touch sensor?
It is a true no-touch device using an active infrared air sensor, so the hand never contacts the plate. That matters in infection-control areas and washrooms where a push plate is the thing being replaced.
7) What are the plate dimensions on the single gang Camden CM-221 switch?
The stated plate size is 4.5 inches by 1-3/4 inches, with a 1.75 inch length figure, and the unit weighs 0.35. That footprint drops onto a standard single gang opening.
8) Is the CM-221 rated for a high traffic commercial entrance or is it light duty?
Camden builds the ValueWave line for commercial use and specifically for high traffic applications, with a stainless steel faceplate. It is not a residential-grade device.
9) What does the red/green versus blue/green illumination option on the wave switch actually change?
Only the LED colours on the switch face that show idle versus activated state. Choose red/green where you want a clear stop/go read at the door, or blue/green where red is reserved for alarm and fire annunciation elsewhere in the building. Both illumination choices are offered in all three plate sizes, with or without the CP-PS13v3 supply.
