This Smoke Vent break glass button is unique in that it mimics the feel of breaking glass without the owner having to go to the cost and trouble of replacing the glass once it has been pressed. Being completely re-usable, all you have to do is simply insert and turn the key provided to reactivate the unit.
How does it work?
The over-ride button utilises a unique rigid plastic operating element and an over-centre spring mechanism. Upon impact, the unit immediately activates the over-ride or cut off mechanism. Once activated a warning indicator drops into view so the building's owner/operator can quickly identify which call point was activated. It can then be reset with the turn of a plastic key (supplied with unit).
Flush or Surface Mounting Options Available
This break glass device can be surface installed using the backbox provided. Alternatively, it also comes with a wall plate that is designed to fit directly onto a standard UK single 35mm deep flush box. In both cases, the break glass unit itself simply clips into hinges at the top and then closes down to snap securely into place.
Electrical Arrangement
Double pole button incorporates two independent single changeover switches providing double pole changeover contacts. Easily accessed through the installer terminals
