Kidde - Edwards 1078CT-N Recessed Terminal Switch

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS 1078CT-N is a recessed terminal switch designed for use in fire magnetic door holder applications. This switch features a 0.75-inch diameter recessed profile, allowing it to mount flush within a door frame or wall assembly. It serves as the electrical contact point in a door holder circuit, signaling the holder to release the door when a fire alarm activates. Licensed electricians and fire alarm system technicians are the primary installers of this component.

The 1078CT-N is suited for commercial and institutional buildings where fire and life safety codes require automatic door release systems. It is installed as part of a magnetic door holder assembly to ensure that fire doors close automatically upon alarm activation, limiting the spread of fire and smoke through a facility.
