Sdc 802AL Key Switch Momentary Spdt 10 Amp Aluminum

Product Description

The SDC - SECURITY DOOR CONTROLS 802AL is a momentary-action key switch rated at 10 amps with a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switching configuration and an aluminum finish. Key switches in this class are used to control access to secured doors, gates, and electrified hardware by requiring a physical key to actuate the switch. The SPDT output gives the installer flexibility to wire normally open or normally closed circuits depending on the access control scheme. The aluminum construction and 628 finish make it suitable for installations where aesthetics and corrosion resistance are both considerations. Licensed access control and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers of this type of device.

The 802AL is suited for commercial and light-industrial access control applications where a key-operated momentary input is required to trigger an electric strike, magnetic lock, gate operator, or access control panel. Its SPDT configuration supports integration into a wide range of low-voltage access control systems. The momentary action means the circuit is only active while the key is held in the actuated position, which is standard practice for request-to-exit and door-release applications.

Key Features

• Momentary action provides circuit actuation only while key is held — standard for door-release and request-to-exit applications
• SPDT configuration supports both normally open and normally closed wiring schemes
• 10-amp rating accommodates a wide range of low-voltage access control loads
• Aluminum construction with 628 finish for durability and aesthetic compatibility
• Single-unit packaging — sold individually

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style key switch for commercial access control systems requiring a momentary SPDT input. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or access control technician in accordance with applicable local codes and NEC guidelines. De-energize all connected access control hardware and power supplies before wiring the switch. Verify that the load connected to the SPDT output does not exceed the 10-amp rating of the switch. Confirm momentary versus maintained action requirements with the access control panel manufacturer before finalizing the wiring configuration.
