Door sensor metal

A door position sensor. The sensor is designed to be mounted on a metal door of a cabinet or a server room. It contains reed contacts (“dry contact”). For NetPing server room environmental monitoring solutions and power distribution units.

  • Reed contacts of the sensor close when a magnet approaches.
  • The sensor is to be mounted on a door of a server room or a cabinet with equipment.
  • It is a patch sensor, designed to be mounted on metal surfaces.

Description

General usage conditions - for industrial and commercial usage in conditions of high humidity (0-95%, non-condensing). The device is not intended for domestic use.

The door sensor determines if a door of a server room or a closet with equipment is opened or closed. The door alarm sensor is a patch one, it consists of two halves. A half with reed contacts and connected wires is mounted still while another half with magnet is mounted on the door. When the door is being closed, a magnet approaches reed contacts and closes them. When the door is being opened, a magnet moves away and contacts open. A peculiarity of this sensor is in a possibility to mount it on a metal door.

The door open sensor is pluggable to NetPing server room environmental monitoring solutions and power distribution units. When the sensor is triggered, a NetPing device can send E-mail, SMS, webhook, and SNMP TRAP notifications. The door sensor is hooked up to one of IO lines of a device and a GND terminal using 2 wires. In the interface of a NetPing device, it is displayed as a status of the IO line, to which it is hooked up.

Information about a sensor plugin is in the document “User Guide” for a NetPing device, to which you connect a sensor. Information about configuring a sensor and its functionality is in the document “Firmware Description” for a NetPing device, to which you connect a sensor.

A sensor is designed to be mounted on metal surfaces.

A door detector is packaged with an inseparable cable, with connectors on the ends. A cable length can be increased with the help of flat cable extenders of RC-4 sensor, which are sequentially plugged one into another. Or it can be done independently with the help of any wire with a minimum cross section of 0,4 mm². Maximum allowable length of a flat cable is 100 meters.

Functionalities

Main functionalities

Door sensor metal is for controlling the access to the cabinet or room and to prevent unauthorized access to such premises.

When the door is being closed, a magnet approaches reed contacts and closes them. When the door is being opened, a magnet moves away and contacts open. A peculiarity of this sensor is in a possibility to mount it on a metal door.
