Door/window open sensor bleBox openSensor anthracite 2 m cable

The bleBox openSensor in anthracite is a wired door and window magnetic contact sensor with a 2 m connection cable for integration into wired home automation and alarm systems. It detects open and closed states of doors or windows and provides a reliable, hard-wired input for systems that accept external magnetic contacts. The anthracite finish is suitable for darker frames and interiors where a discreet, non-reflective appearance is preferred.

Advantages

The wired design with a 2 m cable ensures stable, low-latency signal transmission without relying on batteries or wireless links. The magnetic contact mechanism offers a simple, durable method to detect open/closed status, and the compact anthracite housing allows unobtrusive installation on a variety of frames. Compatibility with common wired inputs in automation and security systems makes the openSensor easy to integrate for monitoring and triggering events.

Suitable for

• Monitoring doors and windows in residential homes
• Integration with wired home automation and alarm control panels
• Status reporting for commercial or office premises
• Triggering automation scenes (lighting, heating, notifications) based on open/closed status

Key specifications

• Type: Wired magnetic contact sensor for doors and windows
• Cable length: 2 m connection cable for wired integration
• Finish: Anthracite color housing suitable for darker frames
• Operation: Detects open and closed states via magnetic contact
• Mounting: Surface mount on frame and sash with compact dimensions
• Interface: Designed for connection to standard wired inputs of automation and security systems

How to use

Mount the sensor body on the fixed frame and align the magnet on the moving sash so that the two parts meet within the recommended gap when closed. Route the 2 m cable to the control unit or automation input and connect according to the host system's wiring diagram for magnetic contacts. Verify the closed and open states in the control system and adjust the sensor position if needed to ensure consistent detection. Follow the host device documentation for any required configuration or debounce settings.

Usage recommendations

Place the sensor where the magnet and contact remain aligned during normal door or window movement and avoid locations exposed to heavy impacts or moisture. Use the wired connection for applications where continuous power and reliable signalling are required; for best results, test the sensor after installation and include it in routine maintenance checks of the automation or alarm system.
