MS Sedco 59J-HSS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the MS Sedco 59J push plate fit a 1-3/4 inch door frame?
That's exactly the opening it's built for. The 59J is a jamb-style plate, narrow enough to land on a 1-3/4 inch doorframe face. If your frame is narrower than that, or you're mounting on glass, block, or anywhere without a jamb face to drill, use an MS Sedco #1010 or #1035 surface box instead and mount the plate to that. Those boxes are ordered separately.
2) How big is the 59J narrow push plate and how much of it actually activates the door?
The face plate measures 1 1/2 by 4 1/4 inches and is all-active, so any point on the plate face triggers the switch, not just a center button. Behind it, the formed stainless back plate is 1 11/16 by 4 1/2 inches and takes the wear on the jamb. The all-active face matters on high traffic openings: a user hitting the plate with an elbow, a hip, or a cart edge still gets activation.
3) What switch contacts does the MS Sedco 59J have, and can I wire it into an existing automatic door operator?
It's a UL Listed SPDT momentary microswitch with normally open, normally closed, and common wire leads, rated 15A at 125VAC. Because you get both NO and NC off the same plate, it drops onto a standard operator activation input either way, and the same plate can drive an access control input or a relay that wants a normally closed loop. Momentary contact means it pulses on press and releases, which is what a low energy door operator expects.
4) Is the MS Sedco 59J push plate ADA compliant?
ADA and ANSI compliant, and the switch itself is UL Listed. The all-active face is a large part of why: the full 1 1/2 by 4 1/4 inch plate responds, so there's no small button a user has to find and press. For healthcare, education, and government work where the activation device gets inspected along with the operator, that combination is what an inspector is looking for.
5) Can I use a 4-1/2 inch square push plate in place of a narrow jamb push plate?
Only where the mounting surface is wide enough to take it. The Camden CM-46 is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch, so it needs roughly four and a half inches of flat surface in both directions. The MS Sedco 59J is built for the opposite condition: a 1 1/2 inch by 4 1/4 inch all-active face plate on a 1 11/16 inch by 4 1/2 inch back plate, dimensioned to fit a 1-3/4 inch door frame. On a standard hollow metal jamb face there is no room for a square plate, which is why the narrow 59J exists as its own form. Both are push plate switches and both activate an automatic operator; the choice between them is decided by the surface you are mounting to, not by the function.
6) What is the difference between the MS Sedco 59J push plate switch and the Camden CM-46?
The two differ in plate geometry and where they are meant to land. The MS Sedco 59J is a narrow jamb style switch with a 1 1/2 inch by 4 1/4 inch all-active face plate and a 1 11/16 inch by 4 1/2 inch formed stainless steel back plate, sized to sit on a 1-3/4 inch door frame or an MS Sedco #1010/#1035 surface box. The Camden CM-46 is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch, a plate form that goes on a wall, a bollard, or a mounting box rather than on the face of a frame member. If the activation point is the jamb itself, the narrow 59J is the shape that fits it; if the activation point is a flat wall surface beside the opening, the square CM-46 covers that.
7) Which legend and finish options does the 59J jamb plate come in?
Three faceplate versions: stainless steel with a black legend, stainless steel with a blue legend, and a blue background with a white legend. Stainless plates carry etched and paint-filled legends; the blue is powder-coated aluminum with an engraved legend. If you're matching plates already installed down a corridor, the legend color is the thing to match, since all three share the same narrow jamb footprint. Special finishes are offered in US3, US4, US10, US10B, and US32.
8) Can I get a wireless version of the 59J so I don't have to pull wire to the jamb?
A wireless version is offered, using radio control instead of a hard-wired run to the operator. That's the option to specify on retrofits where the jamb is already closed up, the opening is across a lobby from the operator, or you'd otherwise be coring an existing frame. Order it as the wireless variant rather than trying to convert a wired plate on site.
9) Will an MS Sedco 59J hold up on an exterior door exposed to weather?
For an exterior jamb, specify the IP68 weatherproof option. The standard 59J is a stainless faced plate with a formed stainless back plate, which handles interior high traffic fine, but driven rain and washdown are what the IP68 version exists for. Call it out on the order; it isn't something added later.
10) What else do I need to order with a 59J push plate switch?
On a 1-3/4 inch frame, nothing extra: the plate mounts to the jamb and lands on the operator's activation input via the NO/NC/COM leads. Anywhere you can't drill a jamb, add an MS Sedco #1010 or #1035 surface mount box, which ships separately. Decide the legend and finish at the same time, and flag wireless or IP68 up front, since both change what gets built.
11) Which push plate switch should I specify for an exterior automatic entrance where the plate is exposed to weather?
The MS Sedco 59J is offered with an IP68 weatherproof option and a wireless radio control version, which covers exterior jamb mounting and openings where running wire to the activation point is impractical. Its switch is a UL Listed SPDT microswitch, momentary, NO/NC/COM with wire leads rated 15A at 125VAC, so it drops into the same dry contact input an operator expects. The Camden CM-46 is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch and is the other plate form to consider when the activation point is a wall or a bollard rather than the frame face. For an exposed exterior jamb specifically, the weatherproof 59J is the one built for that condition.
