Fire-Lite BG-12LOB Dual-Action Pull Station with SPST N/O Switch, Key Lock, Outdoor Use

Description

Fire-Lite BG-12LOB Dual-Action Pull Station with SPST

The BG-12LO and BG-12LOB pull stations are non-coded, dual-action manual pull stations with a key-lock reset feature, an approved outdoor gasket, and an accompanying outdoor backbox (BG-12LOB only). They provide Fire•Lite control panels with one normally open (N/O) alarm initiating input. The BG-12LO/-12LOB meet 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. Molded terminal numbers are also present.

NOTE: To meet UL requirements for outdoor use mount the BG-12LO pull station to the SB-I/O backbox to create the BG-12LOB model. The BG-12LO, with the WP-10 backbox, is UL approved in retrofit applications.
