DW10 - Thin Door/Window

Overview

The thing 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 DW10 also features a tamper switch for extra security.
