DynaLock 6115M One Pushbutton, 1 Gang, Momentary, 6000 Series - Pushbuttons

The 6115M is momentary. Press it and the contacts transfer, release it and they return, which is how a request-to-exit button should behave for releasing a maglock or electric strike while someone walks through. If you need the button to latch and hold its state, the 6115M is the wrong choice; a maintained device like the RCI 908 Series exit button with maintained operation or the RCI 919 Series rotary release does that instead.

Every switch in the DynaLock 6000 Series uses SPDT contacts, so you get a common, a normally open and a normally closed leg off the one button. That lets you drop power to a mag lock on one set while signalling the access panel or shunting an alarm on another. If one set is not enough, an additional set of SPDT contacts per button is an orderable option on the 6115M.

The DynaLock 6115M is a single momentary SPDT pushbutton on a 1-gang plate in brushed stainless steel US32D, used as a request-to-exit control. The closest peers by function are the Securitron PB3 Series push buttons and the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER pushbutton switch, which is factory marked "Emergency Release". If you want the same momentary action in a round push plate rather than a gang plate, the RCI 950 Series round push plate in satin stainless is a momentary switch with a handicap symbol. Confirm your controller accepts the contact arrangement you order before swapping, since the 6115M is specified around SPDT contacts.

The DynaLock 6115M is a momentary SPDT button, so it releases as soon as the button is let go. If you need the contact to stay in its switched state until it is reset, look at the RCI 908 Series electronic exit button with red EXIT text in maintained operation, or the RCI 919 Series rotary release button, also maintained, in satin aluminum. A maintained device is the usual choice where a door has to be held unlocked for a period rather than released for a single exit.

They are not interchangeable in intent. The DynaLock 6115M is a general request-to-exit momentary pushbutton with a green button as standard. The Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses, and the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is marked "Emergency Release" - both are meant for emergency egress duty where the marking and presentation matter. If the opening calls for a normal daily-use exit button, the 6115M is the right family; if the authority having jurisdiction is asking for an emergency release device, an emergency-marked button is what they are looking for.

Two monitoring options cover it. A bi-color red/green LED can be added to the plate to show locked versus unlocked state, and the audible sounder gives an annunciation you can hear at the opening. Both are ordered as options on the 6115M rather than being included on the base button.

A weather proof cover is available as an option, which is what you add when the button is exposed to the elements on an exterior wall, a gate post or a loading dock. Ordered without it, the 6115M is a plain interior plate. The standard plate finish is brushed stainless steel US32D.

An anti-tamper switch can be added to the 6115M, which is the option to specify when the button is on the secure side of a detention, pharmacy, evidence room or IT room door and you want the panel to know if someone pulls the plate off the box.

A pushbutton like the DynaLock 6115M releases the door for anyone who presses it. Where you need the release restricted to keyholders, a keyswitch is the substitute: the ACSI 1310-1 is a mortise keyswitch in the 1300 Series. That changes the cylinder question into part of the order, so confirm the keyway and how it will be keyed into the facility system before you place it.

They do different jobs even though both are momentary. The DynaLock 6115M is a pushbutton on a brushed stainless US32D plate intended as a request-to-exit control at the opening. The RCI 909F-MO is a flush mount momentary rocker switch rated 250VAC 10A with a beige finish, which is a rocker actuator and a different look and rating class. If you are matching stainless door hardware at the opening the 6115M plate is the closer visual match; the rocker is generally chosen when it is going into a control panel or back-of-house location.

The DynaLock 6115M comes with a green button as standard and no accessibility symbol as part of the base device. Where the drawing calls for a marked accessible actuator, the RCI 950 Series round push plate with handicap symbol is a momentary switch in satin stainless that carries the symbol on the plate face. Both are momentary, so the control wiring intent is the same; the difference is the marked, larger push plate surface.

The DynaLock 6115M can be ordered with a weatherproof cover, which is the direct answer for an exposed location, and it can be paired with an anti-tamper switch if the location is also unsupervised. Among the alternatives, the Securitron PB3 Series push buttons and the Trine 342 narrow style electric door switch are the closest single-function peers if you want a different form factor, though the covered 6115M is the configuration built for the exposure.

Plate finish is brushed stainless steel, US32D, which is the same satin stainless look as most commercial lever trim and push plates, so it matches across a facility standardized on 630/US32D hardware. The button itself is green as standard.

It is a commercial access control device, part of the 6000 Series request-to-exit line, and it is what goes on office, healthcare, school and multi-family openings running electrified locks. The base 6115M is a dry-contact switch, so the current and voltage it interrupts are set by the lock circuit it is wired into, not by the button.

The 6115M is the single button version, one pushbutton on a one gang plate. If your opening calls for two separate controls on one plate, for example a release and a separate function, that is a different configuration within the 6000 Series rather than an option you add to the 6115M. What the 6115M does let you add per button is a second set of SPDT contacts and illumination.
