Overview
Enable safe, convenient window ventilation without sacrificing perimeter security. The George Risk Industries VS-08T Magnetic Contact (Vent Switch) is engineered to give homeowners and integrators the practical benefit of allowing a slider or double-hung window to open several inches—about 6" at the standard 1/2" air gap—without creating an alarm condition. Designed as a closed-loop, reed-form N.O. contact with a 10W maximum rating, the VS-08T delivers consistent, low-power performance for intrusion detection and monitoring. Its surface-mount, hybrid installation makes retrofitting on existing frames fast and unobtrusive, reducing labor costs for installers. Ideal for security and surveillance applications where ventilation is desired, the switch helps prevent owner-induced false alarms and supports reliable alarm system operation. Backed by George Risk Industries' lifetime limited warranty and available with custom switch and lead lengths, the VS-08T is a practical choice for residential and commercial security projects. Specify the VS-08T Vent Switch for ventilated window zones or contact our sales team for volume pricing and installation guidance.
