CM-30E: Installation Instructions

Camden CM-30 series illuminated Exit switches are designed to mount into a deep style single gang electrical box.

The large 2” square translucent button is easy to push. One momentary micro switch is provided with Form C output, rated at 10 amps @ 125 VAC.

Standard models are supplied with a 12 – 24V AC/DC light bulb, which is accessed through the front or rear. LED models are supplied with either 12V or, 24V long-life LED’s. 24V models are supplied with an inline resistor, which must not be removed.

Mounting

  • Push the colour-coded leads onto the switch terminals (if not already installed), as per the enclosed diagram. If illumination is not required, the Red & Black wires can be removed (not recommended on 24V LED models).
  • Connect the appropriate wires to your devices. Tuck wiring into box, and fasten switch plate using screws provided.

NOTE: For 12V light (bulb) operation, cut the Red wire just before the Inline resistor. For 24V light (bulb) operation, leave the resistor in place. (This instruction does not apply to LED version).
