Prisma Button contributes to the SDGs

The elbow switch possesses several features that can contribute to the global goals. For example: the extended push function and kick function both make sure that unnecessary door openings can be avoided, saving energy in line with goal 7. Click on the boxes below to learn more!

Prisma Button meets these goals

Active excessive violence protection

Sub-target 12.2 is about sustainable management and use of natural resources. Prisma Button is protected by an active anti-vandalism system, which means that it will shut down when a certain amount of violence is applied. If a dent or deformation occurs, it will recalibrate itself and function as usual. No new product needs to be produced, which contributes to SDG 12.2 on sustainable management and use of natural resources.

Confirmation sound

The confirmation tone serves as a confirmation that the notification has been received. It is of help for people with visual impairment. This way, multiple needs are taken into account in line with SDG 10.2.
In the same way that the confirmation tone contributes to goal 10.2, it also contributes to goal 11.B of implementing strategies for inclusion in our cities and communities.

Contrast

In order for an elbow switch to be approved from an accessibility perspective, it requires 0.4 NCS according to Boverket (the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning) and SRF (the Swedish Association of the Visually Impaired). Prisma Button has 0.8 NCS. By considering multiple needs, more people are included, in line with goal 10.
The contrast also contributes to goal 11.B on inclusion. It provides help for people with visual impairments. According to Boverket (the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning) and SRF (the Swedish Association of the Visually Impaired), an elbow switch should have 0.4 NCS. Prisma Button has 0.8 NCS.

Extended push

With the function enabled, one needs to press and hold for a certain number of seconds for the door to open. This prevents unnecessary openings – and we are able to save energy in line with target 7.3 of increasing energy efficiency.

Kick function

When the kick function is activated, the push button only responds to hard pushes. If someone pushes with a lighter touch, the door remains closed. The energy that would have been required otherwise is saved, contributing to goal 7.3 of increasing energy efficiency.
With the kick function activated, you can kick, hit, or drive into Prisma Button. Driving into the elbow switch can be a particular help for someone with a walker or wheelchair. By taking into account multiple needs, Prisma Button contributes to goal 10.2 on inclusion.
Once again, with the kick function, we can take into account multiple needs. In doing so, Prisma Button contributes to goal 11.B of implementing strategies for inclusion.

Nurse Bed function, Softfront

Prisma Button’s Nurse Bed function, Softfronts, make it easy to open one or two doors in an emergency situation. All you need to do is drive straight into the contact with the hospital bed. This way, Prisma Button contributes to goal 3.8 of making healthcare accessible.

Thermal protection

A built-in thermal fuse trips if the temperature in the surroundings exceeds 110°C. Then, the power supply is turned off. When the temperature drops to 80°C, Prisma Button works as before. No new product is needed, which contributes to target 12.2 on sustainable management and use of natural resources.

Prisma Button contributes to sub-target 3.8 on making healthcare accessible.

	Nurse Bed function & Softfront Prisma Button’s Nurse Bed feature, Softfronts, makes it easy to open one or two doors in an emergency situation. Simply drive straight into elbow switch with the hospital bed. This way, Prisma Button contributes to SDG 3.8 on making healthcare accessible.

Prisma Button contributes to sub-target 7.3 on increasing energy efficiency.

	Kick function When activated, the contact only responds to strong pushes. If someone applies a lighter touch, the door remains closed. The energy that would have been required otherwise is saved, contributing to subgoal 7.3 of increasing energy efficiency.
	Extended push With the function activated, one needs to push and hold for a certain number of seconds for the door to open. This way, unnecessary openings are prevented – and energy is saved.

Prisma Button contributes to sub-target 10.2 on inclusion.

	Kick function With the kick function activated, it is possible to drive into the elbow switch to open the door. This can be a particular help for someone using a walker or wheelchair.
	Contrast To be approved for accessibility, an elbow switch must have a contrast of 0.4 NCS according to Boverket (the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning) and SRF (the Swedish Association of the Visually Impaired). Prisma Button has 0.8 NCS.
	Confirmation sound The confirmation sound serves as a confirmation that the signal has been received. A simple yet effective help for those with visual impairments.

	Active excessive violence protection Prisma Button is protected by an active overload protection system, which means that it will shut down when a certain amount of force is applied. If a dent or deformation occurs, it will recalibrate and function normally. No new product needs to be produced.
	Thermal protection An integrated thermal protection system cuts out when the surrounding temperature exceeds 110°C. At that temperature, the power supply is turned off. When the temperature drops to 80°C, Prisma Button functions as before. No new product is needed.
