FAQs

What type of fire alarm system is this station compatible with?

This station is designed for conventional fire alarm systems.

How is the alarm station reset after activation?

The station is reset using a key, which allows the PUSH IN/PULL DOWN handle to return to its original position.

What does 'dual-action' mean for this alarm station?

Dual-action means the user must first push in and then pull down the handle to activate the alarm, ensuring a more deliberate action.

Is there a visual indicator that the alarm has been activated?

Yes, once activated, the word 'ACTIVATED' appears in bright yellow at the top, and a portion of the handle protrudes as a visible flag.

What is the operating voltage range?

The operating voltage range is 9-28VDC.

Does this station require power to operate?

The station itself uses the power from the conventional fire alarm system's loop (9-28VDC) to signal an alarm condition. It does not have its own independent power source.

Are special tools required for installation?

Basic electrical wiring tools are required for installation. A specific reset key is included with the unit.

Troubleshooting

Station does not activate the alarm

Verify wiring connections to the fire alarm panel are correct and secure. Ensure the panel is powered and functioning. Check if the station's internal switch is making contact when activated.

Alarm does not reset

Ensure the correct reset key is being used. The key should fully engage to reset the handle mechanism. Check for any physical obstructions preventing the handle from returning to its normal position.

False alarms triggered

Inspect the station for any damage or potential for accidental activation. Ensure the area around the station is clear. Confirm that wiring is not causing intermittent signals.
