Description

The PS-SA pull station is a non-coded, single-action manual pull station with pigtail connections and a key-lock reset feature. It provides Silent Knight control panels with one normally open (N/O) alarm initiating input. The PS-SA meets the ADAAG controls and operating mechanisms guidelines (section 4.1.3[13]), and the ADA requirement for a 5 lb. maximum pull force to activate the pull station. Operating instructions are molded into the pull station handle along with Braille text.

Ratings

Switch contact (N/O) is gold plated for reliability and rated at 0.25 A at 30 volts (AC or DC).

Installation

The PS-SA pull station can be surface mounted to an SB-10 or SB-I/O surface backbox or semi-ush mounted on a standard single-gang, double-gang or 4˝ (10.16 cm) square electrical box. The optional BG-TR trim ring can be used if the PS-SA is to be semi-ush mounted.

Operation

To activate the single-action pull station, simply pull down the handle. The word ‘ACTIVATED’ appears after the handle is pulled down. This will remain until the pull station is reset.

The pull station includes one Single Pole, Single Throw (SPST) Normally Open (N/O) switch which closes upon activation of the pull station.

2. Open the door until the handle returns to normal.
