Magnasphere Corp HSS-L2C-101 Level 2 Single Alarm Contact

Product Description

The MAGNASPHERE CORP HSS-L2C-101 is a Level 2 single alarm contact designed for special application security and sensing installations. This recessed contact operates as a discrete magnetic switch, triggering an alarm signal when a monitored door, window, or access panel is opened or disturbed. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by licensed security technicians, electricians, or qualified trade professionals working on access control, intrusion detection, or specialized monitoring systems. Its Level 2 classification indicates a heightened tamper-resistance and performance standard suitable for more demanding installation environments.

The HSS-L2C-101 is used in special application contact scenarios where standard surface-mount contacts are insufficient. Typical installations include secured enclosures, utility access panels, and commercial or industrial entry points that require a recessed, low-profile magnetic contact. The Level 2 designation makes it appropriate for installations governed by stricter performance or tamper specifications, such as those found in commercial security, critical infrastructure monitoring, or controlled-access environments.

Key Features

• Level 2 performance classification for enhanced tamper resistance
• Single alarm contact configuration for straightforward zone wiring
• Recessed mounting design provides a low-profile, concealed installation
• Special application category for demanding or non-standard sensing environments
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity procurement per project

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation contact for special application magnetic alarm contact systems requiring a Level 2 recessed single-contact configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified security technician familiar with low-voltage alarm and access control wiring. De-energize the alarm panel or control circuit before making any wiring connections. Follow all applicable NEC low-voltage wiring guidelines and local jurisdiction requirements. Do not exceed the electrical ratings of the contact to avoid damage to the device or connected control equipment.
