Contactless IR Sensor Exit Button Switch | DC 12V/24V Waterproof
Touchless Access Control Exit Button with Infrared Sensor
Upgrade your access control system with this contactless infrared sensor exit button switch. Simply hover your hand within 1–10 cm of the stainless steel panel and the door release triggers automatically — no physical contact required. Ideal for offices, warehouses, hospitals, hotels, and any high-traffic entry point where hygienic, hands-free operation matters.
How It Works
The built-in infrared proximity sensor detects your hand within the detection zone (1–10 cm). Once triggered, the internal relay activates, momentarily completing the circuit to signal your electric lock or access controller to release the door. When the sensor clears, the power supply cycles through the set timer interval to complete the full door-open and door-close sequence — smoothly and reliably every time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of electric locks is this contactless exit button compatible with?
A: This infrared sensor exit button features a triple-contact output (NO / NC / COM), making it compatible with virtually all types of electric locks including electromagnetic locks, electric strikes, and electrified deadbolts commonly used in access control systems.
Q: Can this touchless exit switch be used outdoors?
A: Yes. The waterproof, brushed stainless steel panel and wide operating range (-10°C to +55°C, up to 95% humidity non-condensing) make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations such as building entrances, gate systems, and covered exterior access points.
Q: How far away does my hand need to be to trigger the sensor?
A: The built-in infrared sensor detects proximity within a range of 1 to 10 cm. Simply hover your hand within this zone — no physical touch is needed — and the green LED will illuminate to confirm the sensor has been triggered and the door release signal has been sent.
Q: Does this exit button support both 12V and 24V DC systems?
A: The standard model operates on DC 12V. A DC 24V version is available as a customizable option. The contact rating supports 12–24V DC at up to 3A, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of access control power supplies.
