Camden Door Controls CM-1230 Spdt Maintained Keyswitch

Product Description

The Camden Door Controls CM-1230 is a stainless steel keyswitch with a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) maintained contact configuration, designed for access control applications in commercial and institutional door hardware systems. The maintained action means the switch holds its position after the key is turned and released, rather than returning to neutral — a critical distinction for access control circuits that require a latched signal. Electricians and door hardware technicians install this keyswitch as part of electric locking, door release, or building automation control circuits. Its stainless steel construction provides durability in high-traffic entry points.

The CM-1230 is suited for commercial entryways, vestibules, and secured access points where a physical key override or activation point is required. It is typically installed in door jambs, wall plates, or mounting boxes at standard entry heights. This keyswitch is appropriate for both interior and exterior applications where a maintained switching signal is needed to control electrified locks, magnetic hold-open devices, or access control panels. Installation is performed by licensed electricians or credentialed door hardware specialists.

Key Features

• SPDT maintained contact configuration holds switch position after key operation
• Stainless steel construction for durability at high-traffic entry points
• Key-operated actuation provides physical security for the switching circuit
• Compact single-gang form factor compatible with standard wall and door hardware mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style keyswitch for use in commercial access control and electric door hardware circuits requiring a maintained SPDT switching output.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. Disconnect and lock out all power to the access control circuit before wiring or mounting the keyswitch. Verify that the maintained contact logic is compatible with the downstream controller or locking device before completing the circuit. Do not exceed the rated electrical load of the switch contacts.
