Alarm Controls PBL-1-1 Latching Panic Button Ss Plate

Product Description

The Alarm Controls Corporation PBL-1-1 is a latching panic button mounted on a single-gang stainless steel plate, designed for access control and security applications. The unit provides both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contact outputs, giving installers flexibility in how the button integrates with alarm panels, door controllers, or other low-voltage control systems. The latching action holds the circuit state after the button is pressed until the device is reset, making it suitable for applications where a sustained signal is required. Licensed electricians and security system technicians are the primary installers for this type of device.

The PBL-1-1 fits standard single-gang electrical box installations, making it compatible with common commercial and light industrial wall-box configurations. It is used in exit device applications, emergency access points, and security monitoring stations where a durable, stainless steel surface finish is specified. The NO and NC dual-contact configuration supports a wide range of control panel wiring schemes without requiring additional relays or interface modules.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified security system technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the control panel and any connected low-voltage circuits before wiring the device. Confirm that the NO or NC contact wiring matches the control system input configuration before restoring power. Follow the access control panel manufacturer's wiring diagram when terminating contacts at the panel.
