MS Sedco 59R6-P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What electrical box does the MS Sedco 59R6 push plate mount to?
The 59R6 round push plate mounts directly to a single-gang or 2-gang electrical box. For surface mounting where there is no box in the wall, it attaches to the MS Sedco #1030 surface box, which is sold separately and has to be ordered on its own line.
2) Can I wire the 59R6 push plate as normally closed instead of normally open?
Yes. The switch inside the 59R6 is a UL Listed SPDT microswitch with momentary action and NO, NC and COM wire leads brought out, so you can take either the normally open or the normally closed contact depending on what the door operator or access control input expects. It is rated 15A at 125VAC, well above the dry-contact loads a low voltage operator input puts on it.
3) How big is the actual press area on the MS Sedco 59R6 plate?
The face plate is 5-1/2 inches round and all-active, meaning the whole face triggers the switch rather than a small button in the middle. Behind it sits a 6 inch diameter formed stainless steel back plate that takes wheelchair footrest and cart hits instead of the drywall. That full-face target is why these get specified on accessible entrances in hospitals and schools.
4) What is the difference between the MS Sedco 59R6 push plate and the Camden CM-46 push plate?
They differ in plate shape and size. The MS Sedco 59R6 uses a 5-1/2 inch round all-active face plate backed by a 6 inch diameter formed stainless steel back plate that shields the wall surface, and it mounts to a single or 2-gang electrical box or the MS Sedco #1030 surface box. The Camden CM-46 is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch. Choose the 59R6 when the opening calls for a round actuator with a larger protective back plate; choose the CM-46 where a smaller square plate suits the wall layout or matches existing actuators in the building.
5) Which finish and legend combinations does the 59R6 come in?
Three: stainless steel with a black legend, stainless steel with a blue legend, and the blue powder-coated aluminum plate with a white legend. On the stainless plates the legend is etched and paint filled; on the blue aluminum it is engraved. Pick one and stay with it across a building so all the entrances read the same.
6) Is there a wireless version of the 59R6, or do I have to run wire to it?
Both exist. The standard 59R6 is a hardwired switch with wire leads, but MS Sedco offers radio control versions of the series for openings where you cannot get conduit to the plate location, such as a freestanding bollard or a remote wall across a vestibule.
7) Will the 59R6 push plate hold up outdoors on an exterior entrance?
For a wet or washdown location, order the IP68 weatherproof option of the series rather than the standard plate. The standard 59R6 is built for commercial interior and protected entry use with a formed stainless back plate; the IP68 version is the one to specify for full outdoor exposure.
8) Round 6 inch plate or a smaller square one, which should I use?
Go round and large where traffic is heavy or the opening is an accessible entrance, since the 59R6 gives a 5-1/2 inch all-active face that is easy to hit with an elbow, hip or wheelchair. A smaller square plate like the Camden CM-46 Series at 4-1/2 inches square is the choice when you are fitting a narrow jamb, a bollard face, or matching existing square plates elsewhere in the building.
9) Does the 59R6 push plate hold the automatic door open, or just trigger it?
It only triggers. The switch is momentary contact, so it signals the operator on press and releases immediately, leaving the door's own controller to time the hold-open. If you need a maintained or latching hold-open function, this is not the device for it.
10) For a fire-rated corridor door, can I use the Camden CM-46 instead of the MS Sedco 59R6?
The Camden CM-46 series 4-1/2 inch square push plate switches carry no fire rating, so it is not the actuator to specify when a fire rating is the deciding requirement. The MS Sedco 59R6 is specified for its UL Listed SPDT momentary-contact switch rated 15A at 125VAC, which is the listing that matters for the activation circuit itself rather than for the door assembly. On a fire-rated opening, confirm the rating requirement applies to the door and frame assembly and that the wall device meets your local code before selecting either actuator.
11) I need a smaller push plate than the 6 inch round MS Sedco 59R6 for a narrow wall return. What else works?
Where the available wall space will not take the 59R6, whose face plate is 5-1/2 inch round over a 6 inch diameter back plate, the Camden CM-46 series is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch and takes up less wall. Measure the usable flat area beside the opening and confirm your box location before committing, since the 59R6 mounts to a single or 2-gang electrical box or the MS Sedco #1030 surface box.
12) If I standardize a facility on round actuators, does the Camden CM-46 match the MS Sedco 59R6 visually?
No. The 59R6 presents a round face - a 5-1/2 inch all-active round plate on a 6 inch round stainless back plate, offered in stainless steel with a blue legend, stainless steel with a black legend, or a blue background with white legend. The Camden CM-46 is a square 4-1/2 inch plate, so mixing the two across a building gives you two different plate shapes on adjacent openings. For a consistent look across a portfolio, pick one shape and carry it through.
