MS Sedco SAM Secondary Activation Module with Intelligent Door Position Monitoring

The MS Sedco SAM Secondary Activation Module is a commercial-grade electronic timing module engineered specifically for ANSI A156.10 2005 swing door requirements. Utilizing proprietary Intelligent Door Position™ monitoring circuitry, the SAM automatically identifies a swing door's open and closed positions and determines its closing time — eliminating the need for manual relay lockout configuration. The SAM provides single-source control over the push plate switch (knowing act), approach sensor (secondary activation), and overhead safety sensor, making it an essential component for compliant automatic swing door systems.

Key Features

  • Intelligent Door Position™ Monitoring: Proprietary circuitry automatically identifies the swing door's open and closed positions and determines closing time, enabling automatic relay lockout without manual adjustment.
  • ANSI A156.10 2005 Compliance: Designed specifically to meet ANSI A156.10 2005 swing door requirements, ensuring code-compliant operation in commercial automatic door installations.
  • Single-Source Sensor Control: Provides unified control of the approach sensor, overhead safety sensor, and safety beams from one module, simplifying system wiring and management.
  • Automatic Relay Lockout: Proprietary software monitors door position and controls when to activate and deactivate the approach sensor after push plate activation, automatically managing relay lockout timing.
  • Overhead Safety Sensor Management: Simultaneously monitors the overhead safety sensor and locks out its signal during the door's closing cycle to prevent nuisance activations and ensure safe operation.
  • Push Plate & Approach Sensor Integration: Seamlessly coordinates the knowing act push plate switch with the secondary activation approach sensor for smooth, compliant door operation.
  • Commercial-Grade Electronic Design: Built for demanding commercial applications as a dedicated timing module within the SAM series of door hardware parts and accessories.

Certifications & Compliance

  • Designed specifically for ANSI A156.10 2005 swing door requirements

Technical Specifications

MS Sedco SAM MS SEDCO – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the MS Sedco SAM module actually do in an automatic swing door system?
The SAM is a microprocessor-based timing module that sits between the push plate switch (knowing act), the approach sensor used for secondary activation, and the overhead safety sensor. Instead of each device being timed independently, the SAM controls all three from one point: it watches the door's position, decides when the approach sensor should be live after a push plate activation, and locks out the overhead safety sensor signal during the closing cycle so the door doesn't re-trigger on itself. For an integrator that means one module handles the sensor sequencing on a knowing act opening rather than a set of separately adjusted relays.
2) Does the SAM module need manual relay lockout timing adjustment during setup?
No. The Intelligent Door Position monitoring circuitry in the SAM identifies the door's open and closed positions on its own and works out the closing time, so relay lockout happens automatically rather than being dialed in by the installer. That is the practical difference on a commissioning visit: you are not setting a lockout timer to match how fast the closer happens to be running, and you are not re-adjusting it when the closer is later re-tuned.
3) Is the MS Sedco SAM built for ANSI A156.10 2005 swing door requirements?
Yes, it is engineered specifically for ANSI A156.10 2005 swing door (knowing act) requirements. That is the standard governing powered pedestrian doors, and it is why the module handles the approach sensor and overhead safety sensor lockout sequencing the way it does. If your opening is being commissioned against A156.10, the SAM is the part of the sensor package that covers that timing behavior.
4) Why does an automatic door keep re-opening or hesitating as it closes, and will the SAM fix it?
That symptom usually comes from the overhead safety sensor seeing the door leaf itself as it swings closed. The SAM addresses it directly: it monitors the overhead safety sensor and locks out its signal during the closing cycle so the door doesn't nuisance-activate on its own travel. Because it derives the closing time from the door's actual position rather than a fixed timer, the lockout window tracks the door instead of needing to be guessed.
5) Is the MS Sedco SAM a swing door module or will it work on a sliding door?
Swing doors. The SAM's position monitoring is built around a swing door's open and closed positions and its closing time, and it is written to the A156.10 2005 swing door requirements. A sliding automatic entrance is a different standard and a different sensor arrangement, so this is not the module for one.
6) How many versions of the MS Sedco SAM are there, and which one do I order?
There is one: model SAM, in the SAM series. No handing, no finish, no voltage variant to select, so the ordering decision is just whether your opening is a knowing act swing door with a push plate, approach sensor and overhead safety sensor to coordinate.
7) Does the SAM replace my push plate and approach sensor, or do I still need to buy those separately?
The SAM is the control module only, not a sensor. You still supply the push plate switch, the approach sensor and the overhead safety sensor; the SAM is what ties them together and manages the activation and lockout sequence between them. Budget it as an addition to the sensor package on the opening, not a substitute for any part of it.
8) Is the MS Sedco SAM rated for commercial use or is it a light-duty residential control?
Commercial. It is a commercial-grade electronic module intended for automatic entrances in healthcare facilities, schools, retail and hospitality, government buildings, industrial sites and multi-tenant commercial properties, which is the traffic level a knowing act entrance sees. It is not a residential door control.
