Residential Door Interlock Switch
DESCRIPTION
Honeywell Relialign™ RDI Series Residential Door Interlock
switches are electromechanical devices designed for use in
residential swing door applications, specifically dumbwaiters,
lifts for the mobility impaired and swing-door elevators in the
USA. In Canada, the RDI is designed for use in residential
swing door applications, specifically elevators and
dumbwaiters but is not designed for use in lifts for the mobility
impaired. The interlock holds the door in place and prevents it
from being opened in potentially unsafe conditions (e.g. the
elevator/lift car is not present at the door). A number of design
features contribute to increase safety, reduce nuisance
stoppages and call-backs, and contribute to simplified wiring
and installation.
Featuring a custom internal solenoid control, the RDI may
reduce complexity of the host controller, reduce power
consumption for a “greener” product, extend solenoid life and
reduce solenoid “time outs,” reducing customer aggravation.
Two Honeywell MICRO SWITCH™ switches are used to
indicate door closure, providing an extra level of reliability.
Reliability and smooth operations are also enhanced by use of
a metal key, that is less susceptable to bending and breakage.
The lack of open or exposed contacts minimizes the possibility
of owners making manual adjustments. Finally, the
engagement of the key initiates electrical contact.
The snap-action cam mechanism requires less adjustment set-
up time and reduces door movement that can cause nuisance
shutdown. A Cat 5 connection option is available, simplifying
installation. This door interlock is configurable and available in
left- and right-hand versions, allowing for simplified
customization. It is designed to be easy for the OEM to retrofit
into their current design.
