eSSL PUSH-9-RC — Round Exit Button for EM Lock Access Control (Single-Door)

Description

A Vapi pharma plant’s facilities engineer is fitting maglocks on the clean-zone anteroom doors where residual magnetism is a documented contamination risk. The cleanroom door lock has to release fully on every cycle — no lingering pull, no slow drop — or the gowning protocol gets compromised. And the existing wall has standard 86mm back-boxes the previous tenant left behind, so the new exit button has to drop straight in. The eSSL PUSH-9-RC is built for exactly this. Round exit push button for any electromagnetic door lock access control installation, fits standard 86mm wall box for easy replacement, 12V / 24V DC operation, fail-safe wiring — releases the EM lock on every press, every time.

Why integrators specify the eSSL PUSH-9-RC

The eSSL PUSH-9-RC is the round exit button integrators reach for when an Indian site needs a quick-replace exit button alongside an electromagnetic door lock — the kind of exit button that drops straight into an existing 86mm back-box without site-specific carpentry. The eSSL PUSH-9-RC pairs cleanly with the access controller already on site — wires straight into the request-to-exit input on any eSSL controller and on standard third-party access panels. No protocol conversion, no firmware hack, no late-night call to the integrator over wiring drift.

For specifiers, the eSSL PUSH-9-RC is the standard companion to an EM lock on the exit side of a single-door access control installation — when someone needs to leave the secure zone, one press releases the door lock. That is the line every facilities lead asks about first when reviewing the maglock access control bill of materials, and the 86mm form factor matters because most Indian commercial fit-outs already have the back-box in the wall.

Holding force & mechanical build

The eSSL PUSH-9-RC is a request-to-exit (REX) push button — not itself the locking element, but the trigger that the access controller reads to release the EM lock. Holding force on the paired electromagnetic lock is whatever the maglock itself provides (typically 270 kg / 600 lbs for office doors and 545 kg / 1200 lbs for high-security doors); the eSSL PUSH-9-RC simply provides the release input. The eSSL PUSH-9-RC runs on 12V / 24V DC, drawing negligible current — comfortably inside the budget of a standard 12V DC access control power supply with battery backup. Durable anodised housing resists the daily knocks of a high-traffic door entry.

The eSSL PUSH-9-RC is a round-faceplate exit button — the round design fits the standard 86mm wall back-box that most Indian commercial buildings already carry, so swapping out an old broken button is a straight back-out-and-replace job. For a single-door EM lock installation, the geometry is simple: mount the eSSL PUSH-9-RC into the existing back-box at standard waist height, and the access controller releases the maglock on every press.

Door compatibility

The eSSL PUSH-9-RC mounts beside any single-door or double-door installation alongside any electromagnetic door lock — flush-mount into a standard 86mm back-box on plaster, drywall, brick and partitioned walls. The round faceplate suits commercial fit-outs across pharma, BFSI, hospital and office segments where the architect’s brief calls for clean round hardware.

Frame and wall compatibility is forgiving: the eSSL PUSH-9-RC drops into the standard 86mm back-box already installed in most Indian commercial walls, so the door type itself (wood, glass, metal) does not affect the exit button installation. For Indian office and commercial fit-outs that are not always machine-perfect, that tolerance matters. Mounting hardware ships with the exit button.

Access control integration

The eSSL PUSH-9-RC wires into any standard access controller’s request-to-exit input — the kind of input every Wiegand and IP access controller in the eSSL, ZKTeco, BioMax, Matrix, Honeywell and TimeWatch range carries on its REX terminal. The integration is dry-contact simple: button pressed, contact closed; button released, contact open. The access controller reads the REX state and drops the EM lock relay for the configured release time — typically 3 to 5 seconds, long enough for the door to be pulled open.

Fail-safe is built into the broader access control system — the EM lock alongside the eSSL PUSH-9-RC releases on power loss, every time. That is fire-safety code compliant — the access control system can fail, the controller can crash, the building’s power can drop, and the door is open. The eSSL PUSH-9-RC simply provides the normal-operation exit path. No code violation, no trapped occupant.

What buyers usually ask before ordering

What holding force do I need for my door?
The eSSL PUSH-9-RC itself is an exit button — the holding force comes from the EM lock it pairs with. For interior office doors, pair the eSSL PUSH-9-RC with a 270 kg (600 lbs) maglock; for main entry doors, server rooms, strongrooms and high-security doors, pair it with a 545 kg (1200 lbs) maglock. Match the holding force to the door’s threat model, and add a 25 percent margin for the daily lean of high-traffic users.

Is the lock fail-safe — does it release on power loss?
The paired electromagnetic lock is fail-safe by design — power cut, magnet released, door open. That is the standard Indian fire-safety expectation for an electromagnetic door lock. The eSSL PUSH-9-RC simply provides the normal-operation release. If the access controller crashes, the building loses power, or the access control PSU fails, the EM lock releases without needing the exit button at all. No trapped occupants, no fire code violation.

Will it work with our existing access controller (Wiegand / dry contact)?
Yes — the eSSL PUSH-9-RC is a passive dry-contact push button that wires into the REX (request-to-exit) input on any access controller, which is what every standard Wiegand-and-IP access controller in the eSSL, ZKTeco, BioMax, Matrix and TimeWatch range provides. No protocol conversion, no interface board. Wire the eSSL PUSH-9-RC contacts to the controller’s REX terminal, and the access control system releases the EM lock on every press.

What’s in the box — bracket included?
The eSSL PUSH-9-RC ships with the round faceplate, the contact mechanism and the standard surface-mount fixings. The round form factor fits standard 86mm back-boxes; for non-standard back-boxes, an alternative bracket is available — tell us your back-box type when ordering and we ship the right bracket alongside the eSSL PUSH-9-RC.

Can it be used on glass / wood / metal doors?
The eSSL PUSH-9-RC mounts on the wall beside the door, not on the door itself, so the door material does not affect installation. The paired EM lock mounts to wood doors, metal-clad doors and glass doors (with the appropriate bracket) — and that is the standard Indian commercial fit-out for the eSSL PUSH-9-RC alongside an EM lock on office doors and reception doors.
