IQ Mini DW -  Door/Window

Product Guide

Overview

The mini Door/Window contact is designed to provide protection for doors, windows, and most anything else that opens and closes.

The contact offers protection via an electromagnetic connection between a magnet and an internal or external switch.  While the magnet is near the switch the sensor is "closed", when it moves away the switch "opens" and triggers an alarm.

The D/W sensor also features a tamper switch for extra security.
