MS Sedco NG-IR-A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are MS Sedco NexGen IR touchless actuator switches used for?
These infrared touchless switches activate automatic doors without physical contact. They detect hand motion or presence near the sensor. Common installations include hospitals, offices, retail stores, and clean rooms where hygiene is important.
2) Are these switches compatible with all automatic door operators?
Most NexGen IR switches work with standard automatic door systems that accept dry contact inputs. Check your door operator specifications for compatible input voltage and current requirements before installation.
3) How sensitive are the infrared sensors?
Sensitivity is typically adjustable on most models. Detection range varies from 2-12 inches depending on model and settings. Test different sensitivity levels during installation to minimize false activations while ensuring reliable operation.
4) What finishes are available for these actuator switches?
Common finishes include brushed stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and powder-coated options. Stainless steel works well in high-traffic areas and medical facilities. Check specific model availability for finish options.
5) What power requirements do these switches need?
Most models operate on 12-24V DC or AC power. Some units draw minimal current, typically under 100mA. Verify power specifications match your door control system before ordering. Low voltage wiring may be required.
6) Do these switches meet ADA compliance requirements?
When properly installed at correct heights and locations, these touchless switches can help meet ADA accessibility standards. Verify mounting height and activation force requirements for your specific application and local codes.
7) What accessories come with these actuator switches?
Typical packages include the switch unit, mounting hardware, and basic wiring instructions. Some models include trim rings or back boxes. Check product specifications for included components and order additional accessories as needed.
8) How are these switches typically installed?
Mount the switch in a standard electrical box or surface mount location. Run low voltage wire to the door operator control panel. Connect according to manufacturer wiring diagrams. Test sensitivity and timing adjustments after installation.
9) How do you maintain and adjust these IR switches?
Clean the sensor lens regularly with a soft cloth to maintain detection accuracy. Adjust sensitivity settings if false activations occur or detection becomes unreliable. Check mounting security and wire connections during routine maintenance.
10) Are there different models for various installation needs?
NexGen series typically offers surface mount, flush mount, and weather-resistant models. Some versions include LED indicators or multiple detection zones. Choose based on your mounting requirements and environmental conditions.
11) Can these switches work in outdoor conditions?
Weather-resistant models are available for outdoor installations. Look for appropriate IP ratings for your climate conditions. Extreme temperatures or direct sunlight may affect infrared sensor performance on standard indoor models.
12) What are the typical dimensions for mounting requirements?
Mounting dimensions vary by model. Most units fit standard electrical box footprints. Check manufacturer templates for exact cutout sizes and clearance requirements. Verify adequate depth behind mounting surface for wiring connections.
