DynaLock 6135M Three Pushbuttons, 1 Gang, Momentary SPDT, 6000 Series - Pushbuttons

Yes. Each of the three buttons on the 6135M is its own momentary SPDT switch, so each can drive a different load: one door release, one for a second opening, one for an auxiliary function like shunting an alarm. SPDT gives you both a normally open and a normally closed contact on each button, so a button can release one circuit and interrupt another at the same time. If a single button has to switch more than one isolated circuit, order the additional set of SPDT contacts, which is specified per button.

Momentary. The buttons on the 6135M make contact only while pressed and drop back the instant you let go, which is what a request-to-exit station should do: the mag lock releases for the duration of the press and re-secures itself. Order maintained instead when you want the button to latch a condition and hold it until someone presses again, like taking a door off-lock for the business day. For a maintained station in the same family of products, the RCI 908 Series exit button and the RCI 919 Series rotary release both come in maintained operation.

The 6135M is a general request-to-exit control with three momentary SPDT buttons and a green standard button color, so it is not marked or dedicated to emergency release. For an opening that needs a labeled emergency device, the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is a pushbutton switch marked Emergency Release, and the Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses. Use the 6135M where the wall station is a multi-function exit control rather than a single identified emergency release.

The DynaLock 6135M is a three-pushbutton, 1 gang momentary SPDT control from the 6000 Push Button series, with all switches on SPDT contacts and a brushed stainless steel US32D faceplate. It puts three separate momentary buttons behind one plate, so one location can release more than one opening or drive more than one function. The Securitron PB3 is a push button in the PB3 series. Where an opening needs a single release action at the door, a single-button control covers it; where one wall box has to carry three distinct momentary actions, the 6135M is the configuration that does it.

Yes, if the circuit must stay held. All three buttons on the 6135M are momentary SPDT, so the contacts transfer only while pressed. For a maintained circuit, the RCI 908 series electronic exit button with red EXIT text is a maintained device, the RCI 919 series rotary release button has maintained operation in satin aluminum, and the ACSI 1310-1 mortise keyswitch is a keyed device from the 1300 series. Choose the 6135M when the release should drop back on its own after each press.

Two separate options do this and they are not the same thing. Illuminated pushbuttons light the button itself and are specified per button, so you can light one and leave the others plain. The bi-color red/green LED is a separate indicator on the plate, red for secure and green for released, which is the one you want when the button should report door status rather than just show it was pushed. There is also an audible sounder if the station needs to be heard as well as seen.

An anti-tamper switch is available as an option on the 6135M. It signals when the plate is pulled off the box, so a station mounted on the unsecured side of an opening or anywhere the public can reach it can report interference back to the panel instead of being quietly defeated.

A gang station like the 6135M makes sense at one control point, a guard desk, a reception counter, or a corridor where one person releases several openings. Run individual buttons at each door instead when the release has to be at the opening itself, and pick the form to suit the spot: the Securitron PB3 Series and PB5 Series medium round illuminated button for a wall next to the door, the Trine 342 narrow style switch when there is only mullion width to work with, and the Securitron EEB emergency exit push button where the release has to be an emergency-only device rather than a routine exit.

No. The 6135M is a three-button gang station meant for a single control point, not an actuator someone operates with a hip or elbow on the way through. For that, use a large push plate carrying the accessibility symbol, such as the RCI 950 Series round push plate with handicap symbol in satin stainless, wired momentary.

No, every position on the 6135M is a pushbutton, so anyone standing at the plate can release the door. When the release has to be restricted to staff holding a key, use a mortise keyswitch instead, such as the ACSI 1310-1 from the 1300 Series. A common layout is a keyswitch for the after-hours release plus a button station like the 6135M for normal-hours exit.

No - they answer different jobs. The RCI 950 series round push plate with handicap symbol is a momentary switch in satin stainless steel intended as an actuator for accessible operation. The 6135M is a three-pushbutton 1 gang momentary SPDT control in brushed stainless steel US32D. Both are momentary devices, but a single marked push plate cannot supply three independent momentary circuits, and the 6135M does not carry the handicap symbol.

The 6135M can be ordered with an additional set of SPDT contacts per button, on top of the standard SPDT contacts, so one press can feed two separate circuits. Single-action alternates such as the Securitron PB3 push button and the RCI 909 series flush mount momentary rocker switch rated 250 VAC 10 A are specified for their own switching, and the 909F rocker is a flush rocker rather than a plate-mounted button. Where the design calls for a second set of dry contacts per button, that is a specify option on the 6135M.

The 6135M is a free-press momentary control, with an anti-tamper switch available as an option for supervision of the device itself. If the requirement is that only authorized staff can release the opening, the ACSI 1310-1 from the 1300 series is a mortise keyswitch, which restricts actuation to a key rather than a button. Fleets that want open egress at the door with monitoring typically stay with the 6135M and add the tamper switch and the bi-color red/green LED.

The 6135M ships in brushed stainless steel US32D as standard, with green as the standard button color. Among the alternates in the same category, the RCI 950 round push plate with handicap symbol is satin stainless steel, while the RCI 919 rotary release button is satin aluminum and the RCI 909F flush mount rocker is beige. For a facility standardizing on a stainless appearance across openings, the 6135M and the 950 push plate sit in the stainless family while the aluminum and beige devices read differently on the wall.

Brushed stainless steel, US32D, with green buttons as standard. That is the finish that lines up with the satin stainless trim on most commercial openings, so a station added to an existing bank of switches usually matches without hunting for a special order.

Yes, the 6000 Series is a commercial electronic access control device, built for request-to-exit duty on mag-locked and electric-strike openings rather than residential use. That is reflected in the stainless plate and gang-box mounting, which is what a facility standardizing switch stations across a building wants.
