Frequently Asked Questions - WGCXHKTRFIDNB HAGER

What is the difference between the mechanical and RFID key card switches?

The mechanical version uses a standard key card, while the RFID version (WGCXHKTRFIDNB) works exclusively with the programmed RFID key card provided.

Can I use this switch with LED bulbs?

Yes, it is suitable for 230 V LED lamps as well as incandescent, halogen, fluorescent lamps, and dimmable electronic transformers.

What is the delay time before the loads switch off?

The delay time is approximately 30 seconds (+/- 10 s) after the key card is removed.

Do I need a neutral wire for installation?

The installation diagram (2A) shows direct switching of loads; a neutral wire is not explicitly required but follow the connecting diagram provided in the manual.

What is the maximum load current?

The rated current is 16 A. For higher loads, use a contactor (diagram 2B).

How do I reset the orientation light?

The LED orientation light turns on automatically when the key card is removed. There is no manual reset; it is part of the normal operation.

Can I install this outdoors?

No, it is only suitable for indoor areas with no drip or spray water.

What should I do if the switch does not respond to the RFID card?

Ensure the card is the correct programmed RFID card. If the issue persists, check connections and contact a qualified electrician or Hager support.

Is insulation resistance testing allowed with the device connected?

No, disconnect the product before carrying out insulation resistance testing to avoid damage.

What is the operating temperature range?

The operating temperature is -5 to +45°C with relative humidity up to 95% (non-condensing).

Installation and operating

instructions

Safety instructions

Electrical equipment must only be installed and assembled by a qualified electrician in accordance with the relevant installation standards, regulations, directives and safety and accident prevention directives of the country.

Failure to comply with these installation instructions may result in damage to the device, fire or other hazards.

Function

The key card switch is used for central switching on of electric loads by inserting a key card as well as for storage of the key card. The key card switch is installed in the entrance area. When the key card is removed the connected loads will be switched off automatically after the delay time has expired (approx. 30 seconds) and the LED orientation light of the key card switch is switched on.
