Magnetic Door/Window Contact SATEL S-4 BR with Tamper Switch for Surface Mounting, Brown

SATEL S-4 BR is a surface-mounted magnetic contact designed for monitoring the open/close status of doors and windows. It integrates a reed contact for reliable state detection and a tamper (sabotage) switch that signals removal or opening of the device housing. The unit is finished in brown and intended for straightforward installation on frames and surfaces where a compact, visible sensor is required. The device is compatible with standard alarm control panels that accept simple magnetic contacts and tamper inputs.

Advantages

The SATEL S-4 BR combines a low-profile surface-mounted design with an integrated tamper switch to provide dual protection: intrusion detection through the reed contact and anti-sabotage monitoring via the tamper circuit. Its compact dimensions and brown finish make it suitable for visible mounting on wooden and painted surfaces while minimizing visual contrast. The device requires minimal wiring and supports conventional normally-closed or normally-open configurations depending on installation requirements.

Suitable for

• Monitoring residential doors and windows for intrusion
• Use on commercial premises with surface-mounted frame profiles
• Applications where a brown sensor is preferred for aesthetic reasons
• Retrofit installations where flush mounting is not possible

Key specifications

• Type: Surface-mounted magnetic contact with integrated tamper switch
• Contact type: Reed contact for open/close state monitoring
• Auxiliary protection: Built-in tamper (sabotage) switch to detect enclosure removal
• Mounting method: Surface mounting on door/window frames and sashes
• Color: Brown finish for reduced visual contrast on wooden or painted frames
• Compatibility: Designed for use with conventional alarm control panels supporting magnetic contacts and tamper inputs

How to use

Mount the main body and magnet on the door or window frame and the moving sash respectively, ensuring the recommended gap and alignment for reliable reed activation. Connect the reed contact and the tamper switch wires to the corresponding inputs of the alarm control panel following the panel manufacturer’s wiring diagrams. Test operation by opening and closing the door or window and by actuating the tamper switch to confirm correct signaling and wiring. Use appropriate screws or adhesive as required for the mounting surface.

Usage recommendations

Place the SATEL S-4 BR where the magnet and sensor can be aligned without obstruction; maintain the manufacturer-recommended clearance for consistent detection. For long-term reliability, avoid installing in locations exposed to direct water ingress or extreme mechanical stress. Periodically check electrical connections and the physical condition of the housing and magnet to ensure continued tamper and contact function.
