George Risk Industries 29PD-W Surface Mount Dpdt Contact White

Product Description

The George Risk Industries 29PD-W is a surface mount double-pole double-throw (DPDT) magnetic contact designed for security and access control applications. This contact ships with a 24-inch, 6-conductor cable and is finished in white to blend with light-colored door and window frames. Surface mount contacts like the 29PD-W are installed directly on the face of a door, window, or frame without requiring a routed channel, making them a straightforward choice for retrofit and new-construction security wiring. Licensed alarm installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades working with this type of device.

The 29PD-W is suited for residential and light commercial security systems where surface mounting is preferred or where the door or window construction does not allow for recessed installation. The DPDT switching configuration provides two independent circuits, allowing connection to alarm control panels that monitor both a normally open and a normally closed loop simultaneously, or supporting redundant supervisory wiring schemes. The included pre-attached cable simplifies rough-in and termination at the panel or junction point.

Key Features

• Double-pole double-throw (DPDT) switching configuration supports versatile circuit wiring
• Surface mount design eliminates need for routing or mortising into door or window material
• Pre-attached 24-inch 6-conductor cable included for direct panel termination
• White finish for low-profile appearance on light-colored frames and casings
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style surface mount DPDT magnetic contact for use with standard low-voltage security and access control panel systems that accept dry-contact loop inputs.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage or alarm technicians in accordance with local electrical codes and NFPA 72 requirements where applicable. De-energize the alarm control panel or isolate the applicable zone circuit before making wire terminations. Mount the contact body to the stationary frame and the magnet to the moving door or window, keeping the gap between the two components within the manufacturer-specified range for reliable actuation. Verify loop continuity and correct DPDT wiring at the panel before restoring power.
