RCI RCI-909S-MO – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the RCI 909 rocker switch handle switching a 120V or 240V circuit directly?
The contacts are rated 10A at 250VAC, so the 909S-MO can switch a line-voltage load within that rating as well as the low-voltage control circuits typical of access control. Ten amps is a lot of headroom for a door strike or a controller input, which is why it also gets used where the switch drives something heavier. Wire it to the manufacturer's diagram and to local electrical code.
2) Do I need to cut into the wall or use a gang box for the RCI 909S-MO?
No cut-in required. The 909S-MO is surface mount, so it fastens to the face of a wall, a counter, or the underside of a desk without a recessed box. That is the point of it: at 2-7/16 x 2-7/16 x 7/8 inches it tucks under a reception counter where staff can reach it and visitors cannot see it. If you need a flush device in an existing single-gang box instead, the DynaLock 6115A is a 1-gang pushbutton.
3) How do I get a timed unlock out of the RCI 909 switch instead of just while it is pressed?
Add a timer. Because the rocker only makes contact while held, the hold-open interval has to come from downstream. RCI offers the TD30, a fixed 30-second timer, and the TD30A, adjustable from 0 to 30 seconds. Order one alongside the switch if the door needs to stay released long enough for someone to walk through after the receptionist lets go.
4) Is the RCI 909S-MO an emergency exit or push-to-exit button?
No, and don't spec it as one. The 909S-MO is a beige rocker with a key symbol for staff-side release, not a marked egress or emergency device. For an emergency release the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is a pushbutton marked "Emergency Release" and the Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses. For a plain request-to-exit button, look at the Securitron PB3 or the illuminated PB4L and PB5.
5) What is the difference between a momentary rocker switch like the RCI 909S-MO and a maintained or alternate-action pushbutton?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a momentary SPDT rocker: press it and it spring-returns, so the contact closes only for the moment of actuation, which is what an access control release needs when a timer or controller sets the unlock duration. The DynaLock 6115A is an alternate-action pushbutton in the 6000 Push Button series, and the DynaLock 6210 palm switch buttons are alternate-action SPDT, meaning one press latches the state and a second press releases it. Pick alternate action when the opening needs to be held unlocked until someone actively changes it, and momentary when every press should be a single timed release. The 909S-MO is rated 10A and 250VAC, so it can switch a line-voltage load directly rather than only a low-voltage signal.
6) What should be used instead of an RCI 909 rocker switch on an exterior or wash-down door?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a surface mount switch specified for desk or wall mount applications with switch release, which puts it inside the building at a reception counter or under a desk. For an opening exposed to weather, the DynaLock 6171 is a weatherproof pushbutton in the 6170 series with a blank faceplate, and it is the one to reach for on an exterior gate, loading dock, or any point washed down or rained on. The blank faceplate also matters if the request-to-exit function is not supposed to be labeled; the 909S-MO carries a key symbol on the rocker.
7) Can an RCI 909S-MO be used as the emergency exit release button, or is a labeled device required?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a general purpose momentary rocker marked with a key symbol, so it reads as an access release rather than an egress device. Where the opening needs a device that identifies itself as emergency egress, the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is a pushbutton switch marked "Emergency Release" in the 6100 series, and the Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses. Institutional and healthcare buyers writing to an egress detail typically specify one of those labeled buttons at the door and use the 909S-MO at the staff side release point, where its 10A at 250VAC rating suits switching the lock circuit from a desk.
8) Is there a keyed alternative to the RCI 909 rocker switch for a release point that should not be operated by anyone walking past?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a rocker anyone can operate, which is why it is normally mounted under a desk or counter for concealed operation. When the release point is in the open and needs to be restricted to key holders, the ACSI 1310-1 is a mortise keyswitch in the 1300 series, and it mortises into the wall box rather than sitting on the surface the way the 909S-MO does. Locksmiths choose the keyswitch when the release has to be tied to the building keying; the 909S-MO stays the choice where a staff member at a desk is the control.
9) Will an RCI 909S-MO fit a narrow mullion or door stile where there is no room for a square surface box?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a surface mount unit with a 2-7/16 inch by 2-7/16 inch face, so it needs a flat area at least that wide, which a narrow aluminum stile or mullion often does not offer. The Trine 342 is a narrow style electric door switch and is the device sized for that condition. Glass front installers and storefront contractors typically run the Trine 342 at the mullion and keep the 909S-MO at the interior desk position, where its 10A at 250VAC contacts switch the release circuit.
10) Can I mount the RCI 909 momentary switch outside on an exterior door?
Keep it indoors. The 909S-MO is a beige surface switch for commercial interior desk and wall locations with switch release; nothing in its build addresses weather. For an exterior opening the DynaLock 6171 is a weatherproof pushbutton with a blank faceplate.
11) I need a key-operated release, not a switch anyone can press. Is the RCI 909 that?
It isn't. The rocker carries a key symbol as a marking only, so anyone with access to the desk can operate it. If the release has to be restricted to a keyholder, the ACSI 1310-1 is a mortise keyswitch and takes a cylinder. Use the 909S-MO where the switch itself is already behind a controlled counter.
12) Will the RCI 909S-MO fit on a narrow door frame or mullion?
Not really. Its 2-7/16 inch square footprint needs a flat surface at least that wide, which rules out most narrow frame faces and aluminum mullions. For a frame-mount application the Trine 342 is a narrow style electric door switch built for that profile.
13) Is a DynaLock 6300 a substitute for an RCI 909 Series switch?
No. The DynaLock 6300 series is an audible annunciator operating on 6-28 VDC, so it signals a condition rather than switching a circuit. The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a momentary SPDT switch rated 10A at 250VAC that makes and breaks the release circuit itself. The two are commonly ordered together on the same opening, the 909S-MO releasing the lock and the annunciator sounding, but one will not do the other's job. For a switching substitute, look at the pushbutton devices such as the Securitron PB3 series push buttons.
14) For a hands-full opening such as a lab or kitchen corridor, what is used instead of a rocker switch?
The RCI 909 Series 909S-MO is a compact rocker with a 2-7/16 inch square face, operated by a fingertip, which suits a desk or counter position. Where staff approach with full hands, the DynaLock 6210 series palm switch buttons are the alternate-action SPDT devices sized to be struck with a palm, elbow, or forearm. Note the action difference as well: the palm switch is alternate action, holding its state until pressed again, while the 909S-MO is momentary and spring-returns on release.
15) What color is the RCI 909 surface mount switch and will it match my other reception hardware?
Beige, and that is the only finish the 909S-MO comes in. It reads as office equipment rather than architectural hardware, which suits an under-counter or desk position. If the switch will be visible on a wall in a finished lobby and you want stainless, the Securitron PB4L is a stainless push button with an illuminated halo.
16) Is the RCI 909 switch rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The 909S-MO is specified for commercial electronic access control, with 10A at 250VAC contacts, and it turns up on office building access points, healthcare and school openings, and retail counters. It is a control device, not a lock: the strike, maglock, or controller it triggers is a separate order.
17) Is there more than one version of the RCI 909 momentary rocker switch to choose from?
One configuration: model 909S-MO, surface mount, momentary, beige. There are no finish or function options to pick on the order form. The only decision left is whether you add a TD30 or TD30A timer for a timed release.
