Alarm Controls Corporation KR-1-1-LUC Key Switch Station

Product Description

The ALARM CONTROLS CORPORATION KR-1-1-LUC is a latching key switch station designed for access control and security applications. This single-gang unit allows an authorized user to actuate a controlled circuit by inserting and turning a key, with the switch remaining in its set position until manually returned. It is typically installed by licensed electricians or security system technicians as part of a door access, gate control, or alarm bypass system. The latching mechanism holds the switched position without continuous key presence, which distinguishes it from momentary-action key switches.

The KR-1-1-LUC is suited for commercial and light industrial access control installations where a discrete, panel-mounted key switch is required. Single-gang form factor allows installation in a standard electrical box or dedicated surface-mount enclosure. It is commonly specified for entry control points, elevator call stations, alarm system shunt circuits, and similar low-voltage control applications.

Key Features

• Latching action holds switch position after key is removed
• Single-gang form factor fits standard electrical boxes or surface-mount enclosures
• Sold as individual unit for flexible deployment across multiple control points
• Designed for access control, alarm bypass, and gate or door control circuits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation key switch station for single-gang access control and security panel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or certified security systems technician. De-energize all circuits at the breaker or control panel before wiring the switch station. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for low-voltage control wiring and enclosure mounting. Verify the switch orientation and latching direction before securing the unit in the box.
