THE STATIONS

Safety Systems Models M400 and M450
Manual Stations are high quality die cast
metal units designed for quick, reliable
response in emergency situations. The
stations are activated by grasping the handle
marked “pull” and pulling it down to the
locked position. This causes the normally
open switch contact to close, thus transmitting
the alarm condition to the fire detection
system. On dual action models only, it is
necessary to push in on the bar marked
“push” to grasp the pull handle. The pull
handle locks into the extended position
when activated, and is visible from 50 feet
away. The “break rod” is clearly visible
when the station is set, and will shatter when
the station is activated. Once activated, the
key lock must be used to reset the pull rod.
The key lock may also be used for testing
the manual station.

When suitably installed, these stations
meet the requirements of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA).
