OEM PB-68 Stainless Steel Key Switch Exit Button

PB-68 Key Switch

The OEM PB-68 Exit Button provides a high-security manual override solution for electronic locking systems. This key-operated mechanism ensures that only authorized personnel can trigger a door release or reset an alarm state. The device features a robust 304-grade stainless steel faceplate to withstand heavy physical use in commercial environments. It integrates seamlessly with magnetic locks, electric strikes, and automated gate controllers. Security professionals utilize this switch in areas where standard push-to-exit buttons pose a risk of unauthorized egress.

Key Features

• Structural Durability
  The 304 stainless steel panel features a sandblasted finish to resist corrosion and mechanical wear over time.

• Versatile Contact Configuration

  • Normally Open (NO) terminal for standard trigger circuits
  • Normally Closed (NC) terminal for fail-safe power interruption
  • Common (COM) connection for flexible wiring integration

• Electrical Load Capacity
  Internal switching components support a maximum current rating of 3 Amperes at 36 Volts Direct Current.

• Mechanical Reliability
  The assembly undergoes rigorous testing to ensure a lifecycle exceeding 500,000 individual operations without failure.

Technical Implementation

Installers mount the unit into standard 86mm square electrical backboxes for flush-surface finishes. The screw-terminal block on the rear facilitates secure wire termination for 18AWG to 22AWG conductors. This hardware operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -10°C to +55°C. It functions effectively in environments with up to 95% non-condensing humidity. Additionally, the package includes two matching keys to provide administrative redundancy for facility managers. The key-retaining or non-retaining behavior depends on the specific wiring logic applied at the controller level.
