Description
RL-A9 Metal Touch Switch
The OEM RL-A9 Touch exit switch uses a capacitive metal plate for no-force request-to-exit signaling. Users brush or lightly touch the face to send release input to access control door controllers. Security integrators specify the A9 model on high-traffic doors where mechanical paddles wear quickly. The metal faceplate resists vandalism better than plastic alternatives in public corridors and loading docks. Low-voltage wiring connects the touch sensor to controller inputs through supervised normally open circuits. Electricians route shielded or standard low-voltage cable from the door wall box to the IO module. The RL-A9 mounts in standard back boxes at ADA reach height on maglock and electric strike doors. Installers program RTE delay and unlock time profiles in controller firmware after touch sensitivity setup. Commissioning includes sensitivity adjustment so gloved hands and narrow contacts still trigger release.

Touch plate responds reliably even with dry hands. Stainless finish has not tarnished in a humid basement corridor. Clients notice the upgrade from a basic plastic button.
Brenda Chepngeno (verified owner) –
Metal touch A9 looks smart at the main entrance. No mechanical button to wear out.
Winnie Njeri (verified owner) –
Installed on the glass door leading to the terrace. Touch activation is intuitive for visitors and the metal faceplate feels more secure than our old unit. Wiring diagram in the box was clear.
