Description
Mircom’s MS-700 Series Manual Stations provide manual fifi re reporting. These high quality, die-cast metal manual stations are available in either single or dual action confifi gurations with SPST contacts and terminal strip connections. The normally open contact, which closes when the manual station is activated, is rated for 1 amp, 30 VDC. The contacts are gold plated to avoid the risk of corrosion.
The MS-700 Series Manual Stations are available in many different confifi gurations as either single or dual-action devices.
The MS-701 is a single action, single stage manual station. Model MS-710 is a single stage, dual action manual station. The MS-702 (two stage) is similar to the MS- 701 (single stage) except it contains an additional General Alarm (G.A.) N.O. switch. For safety reasons, the G.A. switch is only accessible after the handle has been pulled. A special key is supplied with each unit.
All models are available with key resets, terminal connectors, SPST gold contacts and CAT-30 lock and keys. The units mount on a standard single gang backbox, Mircom’s BB-700 surface metal backbox or BB-700WP weather proof backbox.
The MS-700U Series Manual Stations are listed for outdoor applications when used with the BB-700WP.
Operation
The MS-700 Series is operated by pulling the handle on the front of the station. The unit is reset by opening the station with the key, placing the handle in the normal upright position and re-locking the station. On the dual action models, the push bar rotates inward allowing the Manual handle to be grasped in a one handed motion.
The MS-702 (two stage version) also provides a key switch which is accessible after the handle has been pulled. Operation of the key switch, when connected to a separate general alarm circuit, will initiate the 2nd stage of a two stage alarm signalling system.
