The RFAC-DW-10 spacer kit allows RADION installers
and technicians to properly align the RADION door/
window contacts with their corresponding magnets
across a wide variety of door/window and frame
designs. The spacers also help further separate the
magnet/reed switch from metal mounting surfaces

The durable plastic spacers include alignment pins and
receptors for easy stacking and alignment, and fully
support the wall tamper feature of the RADION door/
window contact detector.
The matching color also provides an attractive,

finished appearance.
which can reduce effective gap width. The result is a
faster installation that is more effective in reducing
false alarms.

System overview

The spacer kit allows for better alignment between the
reed switch contact and the magnet when doors or
windows do not perfectly align with the surrounding
frame. This improved alignment creates a more
reliable function of the switch, making the system
easier to install, and also providing improved
resistance to false alarms.
Mounting magnets and reed switch contacts on metal
doors can cause magnetic interference, reducing the
effective gap distance. Stack the appropriate number
of base and magnet spacers to compensate for
differences in height between the detector and
magnet.

It is recommended to use one spacer to improve reed
switch-magnet gap performance when mounting to a
metal surface. Six spacers are the recommended
maximum on any mounting surface.
For RFDW-SM detector bases that do not have pin
receptors, simply remove the pins from the top spacer
to create a flush fit with the detector base.
