Overview
Keep windows ventilated without compromising perimeter protection. The George Risk Industries VS-06 6" Linear Travel Vent Switch is a purpose-built magnetic contact that lets homeowners arm their security system while allowing slider or double-hung windows to open up to approximately 6 inches before triggering an alarm. Designed as a closed-loop, normally-open (N.O.) contact, the VS-06 helps reduce false alarms by maintaining a predictable activation zone with a standard 1/2in air gap. Its 6.52in surface-mount form factor and hybrid installation type make it simple to fit on residential and light commercial windows, and the unit’s wired connectivity integrates cleanly with existing alarm panels and monitoring systems. Installers benefit from easy bench-testing to verify the activation area and can order custom switch or lead lengths to match site requirements. Ideal for security, surveillance, and remote monitoring applications where controlled ventilation is needed without disabling protection. Add the VS-06 to window and slider zones to improve user convenience and system reliability—contact your supplier or order today.
