Maxwell

What Maxwell is known for

Maxwell — commonly referenced in distributor catalogs as Maxwell Alarm Screen Inc or simply MAXWELL — is a specialist manufacturer of identification and safety signage for the electronic security and life-safety market. Maxwell supplies security warning signs, surveillance/CCTV decals, fire-panel, exit and emergency signage, yard signs, and adhesive decals for inside and outside mounting.

Main product families and materials

Catalogs and reseller listings show Maxwell product groups by application and form factor: rigid signs (plastic or aluminum), Maxiplate-style panels, yard signs, and adhesive decals. Common model prefixes and examples include:

• SN-: fire and emergency panels (examples: SN-132, SN-FIRE, SN-133)
• STV-: video surveillance signs (examples: STV-206, STV-205)
• DTV-/DS-/DT-: decal-style CCTV/audio monitoring labels (examples: DTV-203, DTV-205, DTV-208)
• GS-: general security signs (examples: GS-102, GS-103)
• DY-/YS-: decal packs and yard signs (examples: DY-150, YS-102)

Materials listed by distributors include molded plastic, aluminum,.075 Maxiplate panels, and vinyl/adhesive decals in inside- or outside-mount versions.

Typical applications

Maxwell signs are used by security integrators, facility maintenance, contractors, property managers and OEMs for CCTV/privacy notices, fire-panel labels, exit and egress markings, armed-response and perimeter warning signage, and small-format decals for camera and equipment labeling.

How to identify the correct Maxwell model

• Match the exact part number shown on distributor pages or on the existing sign.
• Confirm physical dimensions and mounting-hole pattern.
• Verify material and inside/outside-mount rating for decals.
• Compare legend text and color in product images.
• Confirm packaging quantity and any SKU suffixes before ordering bulk.

Procurement language for RFQs/POs

Use explicit part numbers and specs: for example, “Maxwell SN-132, 8 x 6, red/white emergency-exit sign, qty X” or “Maxwell DTV-205, CCTV & audio monitoring decal, 4 x 4, outside-mount, qty 100 — specify adhesive & UV rating.” Include required lead time and unit packaging.

How Safsale helps buyers

• Product pages list model codes, sizes, colors and images so buyers can confirm part fit.
• Catalog browsing groups Maxwell items with related signs and decals for easy comparison.
• Where available, product attributes and Q&A help verify material and mounting type before purchase.
• Cart and bulk-order tools support multi-site rollouts and volume procurement.

Sourcing tips

Always verify legend text and exact dimensions for code-critical signs, check decal adhesive and UV rating for outdoor use, request samples if needed, and when a part is unavailable capture full part number, dimensions and material to get a proper cross-reference or custom print.

Maxwell products are widely cataloged by security distributors and remain a practical option when standardized, pre-printed safety and surveillance signage is required.
