| Addition to Relialign residential door interlock switches  Honeywell's Relialign Series of residential door interlocks now includes the RDI2 Series, engineered with a rugged, plastic housing. Designed specifically for residential swing door applications, the RDI2 Series joins an established product line of metal-housed products released in 2009 (RDI Series). Honeywell's Relialign door interlocks hold the door in place and prevent it from being opened when not desired, such as when the elevator/lift car is not present at the door. A number of design features, including a door-closure retention cam, contribute to RDI2 Series' enhanced safety, reduction of nuisance stoppages, simplified wiring, and ease of installation. Reliable and smooth operations are enhanced by the use of a metal key that is less susceptible than plastic to bending and breakage. The lack of open or exposed contacts minimizes the possibility of owners making manual adjustments. Featuring a custom internal solenoid control, Relialign RDI2 Series interlocks can reduce complexity of the host controller, trim power consumption for a "greener" product, extend solenoid life, and reduce solenoid "time outs," lessening customer aggravation. RDI2 Series Residential Door Interlocks include a manual override for easy actuation without user hazard, which reduces the potential for call-backs. To meet customer and industry requirements, the Relialign Series is compliant with ASME A17.1, UL Standard 104, and CSA-B44.1. Potential applications include residential elevators, dumbwaiters, and platform/vertical lifts. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
