SECURITRON PB5 EXIT BUTTON
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. DESCRIPTION
The model PB5 is a spring loaded momentary 2" diameter, illuminated exit button, mounted on a
stainless steel single gang outlet box cover. The DPST contacts switch when the button is
depressed and return when it is released. The contacts are UL listed with 5 AMP capacity. The
PB5 can be used for momentary release of fail safe or fail secure electric locks. It may also be
used to input a REX (request to exit) signal to a card reader system for release of an electric
lock. We recommend that the local building or fire safety authority be consulted prior to using
exit buttons for door egress. They may require a "no special knowledge" exit device such as
Securitron's Touch Sense Bar.
2. INSTALLATION
The PB5 comes with a retro-fit wall mounting device and color coded hookup wires installed. If a
wall box is used, be sure it is at least 2 1/2" deep to accommodate the switch. The drawing
below identifies the unit's connection points.

3. LED OPERATION
Resistors are installed so that the LED may be operated on either 12 or 24 VDC. The green wire
that drives the switch LED has resistors soldered on it. If the power supply is 24 VDC, connect
directly to the wire. If the power supply is 12 VDC, remove the outer resistor for proper
operation at the lower voltage.
The switch LED draws 9 mA @ 12VDC or 20 mA @ 24VDC. For replacement: the switch LED is
Securitron part number 030-14600. The switch LED is replaced by grasping the back of the
white contact block and twisting it counter-clockwise to the 11 o’clock position, then pull the
contact block straight out of the rear of the switch. This reveals the LED which then can be
pulled out from the block. Insert new LED into contacts, the
 marking on the LED should be on
the same side as the green wire with printing facing the same directions as the switch block
terminals. Operating Life of the switch LED is 100,000 hours.
For LED replacement in older PB5: The switch LED assembly is replaced by snapping out the
contact block assembly at the rear of the switch. Remove the PCB and replace with LED
following the steps above.
