Detex 24VAC Relay Kit for Exit Alarms with Remote Bypass Feature

Detex 24VAC Relay Kit for Exit Alarms with Remote Bypass Feature

Professional Relay Interface for Coordinated Access Control Systems

The Detex 24VAC relay kit (part number RLY24) provides essential system integration capabilities for Detex alarmed exit devices with remote bypass functionality. Operating on 24V AC power, this relay kit enables remote shunting of alarm signals while simultaneously activating secondary electrified devices such as electric strikes, maglocks, or auxiliary signaling systems. Designed for professional wiring environments, this kit requires a separate junction box for proper installation and delivers reliable switching action for commercial and institutional applications.

Professional Features & Benefits
