Product SKU: S3705

Product Overview

The DAS S3705 Stainless Steel Hold Up Panic Button is a key resettable panic switch designed for hardwired alarm and duress applications where a durable, visible activation button is required. Its stainless steel construction and large 50 x 25mm push area make it suitable for commercial counters, reception areas, cash handling points, service desks, offices and other fixed alarm locations where staff may need quick panic activation. The S3705 uses a DPDT switch design and includes a red optical status indicator to show activation status, helping support clear user feedback after the button has been pressed. This model is a practical option for compatible alarm panels, access control systems or duress circuits where a key resettable hold-up button with reliable switching and a robust faceplate-style design is preferred.

Why Choose the S3705

Choose the DAS S3705 when the installation needs a hardwired panic button with durable stainless steel construction, a clear red activation indicator and key reset operation. Its DPDT switch design makes it more flexible than many simple single-pole panic switches, while the large push area supports fast operation in urgent situations. Compared with wireless pendants or lightweight plastic buttons, the S3705 is better suited to fixed commercial positions where a robust, professional-looking hold-up button is required. This model, supplied by Security Wholesalers, is a practical choice for compatible alarm and duress systems where reset control, switch reliability and clear activation status are important.

Ideal Use Cases

Choosing the Right Model

• Choose this model if: You need a stainless steel hardwired panic button with DPDT switching, red status indication and key reset operation.

FAQs

1. What is the DAS S3705 used for?
   The DAS S3705 is used as a hardwired hold-up or panic button for compatible alarm and duress systems. It provides a fixed activation point for staff or authorised users who may need to trigger an alarm during a threat, hold-up or emergency situation.
2. Is the S3705 key resettable?
   Yes. The S3705 is key resettable, which means it can remain in an activated state until reset with a key. This helps support controlled response procedures after a panic activation and reduces the chance of unauthorised or accidental reset before the event has been handled.
3. What type of switch does the S3705 use?
   The S3705 uses a DPDT switch design. This provides flexible switching options for compatible alarm, duress or control circuits. The installer should confirm the required wiring arrangement and terminal use before installation to ensure the button matches the alarm panel input design.
4. Does the S3705 have a status indicator?
   Yes. The S3705 includes a red optical status indicator designed to show activation status. This can help users and technicians identify whether the button has been triggered and whether it needs to be reset, tested or checked during system maintenance.
5. Where should the S3705 be installed?
   The S3705 should be installed where authorised staff can reach it quickly during an emergency, such as a retail counter, reception desk, cash room, service desk or staff area. It should not be placed where customers or visitors can easily press it, or where accidental activation is likely.
6. Is the S3705 a dual press panic button?
   No. The S3705 has a large single push area rather than a dual press design. If the installation specifically requires two-button activation to reduce false alarms, a dual press panic or hold-up button may be more suitable. The right choice depends on the site’s risk and alarm procedure.
7. What are the rated electrical specifications for the S3705?
   The S3705 is listed with a rating of 125VAC 6A or 250VAC 3A and contact resistance of 30mΩ maximum. The alarm installer should ensure these specifications are appropriate for the connected circuit and that the button is wired in accordance with the alarm system design.
8. What should I check before buying the S3705?
   Before buying the S3705, confirm the alarm panel input type, switching requirements, mounting position, reset procedure and whether a single push or dual press panic button is preferred. This model is available through Security Wholesalers for compatible hardwired panic and hold-up alarm installations.
