- Alarm Pull Station Protective Covers, w/ Optional Alarm
Product Description
These alarm pull station protective covers consists of a tamper-resistant, clear polycarbonate shield and frame that fits easily over existing fire alarms. The cover must be lifted to gain access to the actual alarm. With the optional piezo horn option, it sounds a piercing warning horn bringing immediate attention before the alarm is activated. Justifiable alarms may still be pulled. Proven to deter false alarms in schools, factories, hospitals, hotels, etc. Pull station is not included.
This unit is available in two sizes. The smaller one has an interior space of up to 5.95" h x 4.08" w x 2.54" d (151 x 104 x 64 mm) and the larger one has up to 7.4" h x 5.5" w x 3.175" h (188 x 140 x 81 mm) interior space. Units with alarms have less interior height - approximately 5.42" (138 mm) total. The alarm units include a 9V battery. If the alarm is not flush against the wall, order the conduit spacer which will add 1.5" or 2" of depth and has a convenient conduit knockout notch if your pull station is surface-wired.
Technical note: These units come with a locking tab capability that is not enabled by default. By drilling a 1/8" through hole when the cover is closed, you can make it so the two halves of the cover can be secured with a breakaway seal (such as item # 09775) to reduce tampering. CAUTION: This feature should NOT be used for fire or emergency signal applications. If employing it, use only tamper seals that have a low breaking strength (10-14 lb) that can be broken by hand without tools - and test that the seals can be broken by hand before final deployment.
