Hager 8229-02H/03LR 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Hager 8229 touchless switch work outdoors on an exterior entrance?
Yes. The 8229 is exterior rated, with an operating range of -4F to 122F (-20C to 50C) when used with lithium power. Its capacitive sensing does not false-trigger on sunlight or reflections, which is the usual failure mode for exterior wave plates, and the 18-gauge stainless faceplate holds up to weather and abrasive cleaners.
2) What voltage does the Hager 8229 wave switch need, and how does it wire into a door operator?
It runs on 12/24 VAC or VDC, so it drops onto most low energy operator accessory power taps without a separate supply. The output is a momentary DPDT switch contact, which is what a low energy ADA operator expects for an activation input. Confirm the operator's voltage and current capacity, then wire the momentary contact to the operator's activation terminals.
3) What size opening or box do I need for the Hager 8229 switch plate?
The plate is a 4-1/2 inch square, 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 1-1/4 inches deep (114 x 114 x 32 mm). That 1-1/4 inch depth behind the faceplate is what you need to clear for wiring, so a standard single-gang or 4-inch square box with room for the conductors works. Edges are beveled and graphics are embossed rather than printed.
4) What is the difference between the 8229-02H/03LR and the 8229-02H/05LR?
Both are 4-1/2 inch square hardwired plates in 630 satin stainless. The 03LR carries the wheelchair symbol along with the wave symbol and "Wave to Open" text; the 05LR has the wave symbol and "Wave to Open" text only. Pick the wheelchair version where you want the opening identified as the accessible entrance, and the plain wave version for general public doors where you don't want the accessibility icon.
5) Is the Hager 8229 battery powered or hardwired?
Both orderable models are hardwired units (the H in 8229-02H). There is no wireless transmitter version here, so plan a low voltage run from the operator or power supply to the plate location.
6) Can I use a touchless wave plate instead of a push button on an ADA power operator?
Yes, and that is exactly what the 8229 is for. A momentary push plate and a capacitive touchless plate send the same signal to the operator, a momentary contact closure, so either satisfies the activation function. The touchless version is chosen where hand contact is the concern: medical and assisted living facilities, clean rooms, schools, and public access buildings. It is meant for low energy power operators, not for full powered automatic sliders with their own sensor packages.
7) Will the Hager 8229 stand up to hospital cleaning chemicals and constant wiping?
The faceplate is 18-gauge stainless steel, chosen specifically to resist visible deterioration from abrasive cleaning agents, and the graphics are embossed into the metal rather than silkscreened so they do not wipe off. That combination is why it gets specified for medical and clean room work where plates are cleaned many times a day.
8) What finish does the Hager 8229 come in, and will it match other stainless hardware in the building?
One finish: 630 satin stainless steel, which is the standard satin stainless used across commercial door hardware, so it reads the same as 630 push plates, pulls, and exit device trim on adjacent openings. Both the 03LR and 05LR models are 630.
