ELK Products ELK-100 Wireless Panic Button
Overview
The ELK-100 is a compact wireless panic button designed to trigger alarm activation independent of system status. Measuring 52 x 54.5 x 10mm and weighing under 30 grams, it fits on a keychain for immediate access — a practical addition to senior care installations, retail environments, and facilities where staff need one-touch emergency signaling without fumbling for codes or reaching a fixed panel.
The unit transmits on 315MHz or 433.92MHz (±75kHz) across distances up to 80 meters in open area, meaning coverage extends through most residential and light commercial spaces. Power comes from a single CR2032 button cell battery drawing ≤7mA during transmission, yielding multi-year runtime on a standard replacement battery.
Compatibility
The ELK-100 integrates with ELK Products alarm control panels and hybrid systems that support wireless panic button accessories on the 315/433MHz band. Confirm your panel's wireless receiver module supports the ELK-100 frequency before deployment. Works alongside hardwired panic circuits on mixed systems.
Installation Notes
Operating temperature range is −10°C to +55°C; keep relative humidity below 80% (non-condensing) to prevent battery corrosion. ABS plastic housing resists light impact and UV exposure typical of indoor/outdoor transitions. Replace the CR2032 battery when transmission range noticeably shortens or the button fails to activate the panel — no tools required. Test transmission range at installation by placing the button at the farthest intended carry point and confirming panel reception.
