This Pull Station Cover meets the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Specifically, it has been tested by UL for compliance with the 5lb. pull force requirement. In addition, the total depth of the unit when mounted is less than the required 4 inches. What’s more, it can be operated easily with one hand without having to grasp and when opened will not obstruct the use of the pull station, an important requirement for ADA applications.
Units with the optional alarm module can be used as false alarm deterrents in applications such as schools, libraries, etc. When installed, the alarm module will emit a piercing scream when the cover is opened. This startling noise will help to deter most malicious pranksters and to indicate the location of the problem. A weatherproof kit is available which will allow the unit to be installed in outdoor applications. This optional kit will provide NEMA 3R protection to the device.
Optional features include an alarm module with siren, weather kit with gaskets, a backplate for rough surfaces, and an extender kit for surface mount pull stations.
