Potter Electric Signal Co. Us 2020355 High Security Contact

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US 2020355 is a high security contact device designed for specialized alarm and detection applications. This unit functions as a door or access-point contact that signals an open or tampered state to a connected control panel. It is intended for installations where standard contacts are insufficient and a higher level of tamper resistance or detection sensitivity is required. Licensed alarm technicians and low-voltage security contractors are the primary installers of this device.

This high security contact is suited for commercial and institutional environments where access control integrity is critical. Typical applications include secured doors, server rooms, vaults, and other controlled-entry points requiring reliable positional detection. It is sold as a single unit and is classified under special application contacts, indicating it is intended for non-standard or high-integrity security installations rather than general-purpose residential alarm work.
