May 5, 2021 – Stay safe and germ-free with STI’s new die cast aluminum contactless button.
As businesses worldwide take steps to try to resume normal operations in the future, there is a need for infection prevention and control in public and shared spaces. Effective procedures and protocols are essential, but there are also a number of physical solutions which can help reduce risk and exposure to COVID-19.
STI announces their new NoTouch® Cast Aluminum IR Switch helps eliminate the spread of germs in government facilities, hospitals, clinics, labs, cleanrooms, schools, department stores, factories, offices or any public building with high traffic areas.
To exit or enter a building without touching the door, a user must simply wave their hand in front of the touchless button. The active infrared is designed to detect the motion of a wave, send an electrical signal to the door operator, and unlatch the time adjustable door. The touch-free action helps prevent germs from transferring to hundreds of hands and surfaces, helping to promote health and safety.
NoTouch IR Switch is constructed of heavy duty die cast aluminum and is slightly oversized to cover old installation marks. Setting it apart from competitor models, STI’s button includes three interchangeable snap-in illuminated messages (white OPEN, green EXIT, blue EXIT), and is customizable. The switch includes a Form “C” dry contact, 0.5A @120VAC, 1A @24VDC, adjustable relay latch time of 0.5 ~ 20 seconds, operating voltage 12VDC – 24VDC, 45mA (maximum), dual color status LED (green/red or red/green), and a 1.5 ~ 6 inch detection range. Matching surface mount cast aluminum back box is also available.
