Von Duprin 050251 Request to Exit Switch Kit

Product Description

The VON DUPRIN 050251 is a request to exit (REX) switch kit designed for use in electronic access control systems. It provides a reliable egress signal that tells the access control panel a door is being opened from the secured side, allowing the system to suppress alarms and log the exit event. Licensed security and low-voltage electricians typically install this kit during initial system commissioning or as a retrofit to existing door hardware. At 0.1 pounds, the kit is compact and lightweight, measuring 6 inches long by 3.5 inches wide by 2 inches tall.

Request to exit switches are standard components in commercial door access control installations. This kit suits interior doors in office buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, and other commercial or institutional environments where controlled egress monitoring is required. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for integration with compatible access control panels and door position monitoring circuits. Installation is typically performed alongside electrified latch retraction hardware or magnetic lock systems.
