MCP-05 Manual Pull Station

AS-MCP-05 conventional manual call point designed for conventional fire alarm system for reporting fire or emergency condition by its PUSH IN/PULL DOWN handle latches. One 470 ohm resistor is used on the PCB board between Zone+ and Zone- when the switch inside is closed. So AS-MCP-05 conventional manual call point is only used with conventional fire alarm control panel, it is forbidden to be used to other system.

The manual call points provide a textured finger-hold area that includes Braille text. In addition to PUSH IN and PULL DOWN text, there are arrows indicating how to operate the station, provided for non-English-speaking people.

Pushing in and then pulling down on the handle activates the normally-open alarm switch. Once latched in the down position, the word “ACTIVATED” appears at the top in bright yellow, with a portion of the handle protruding at the bottom as a visible flag.

Resetting the station is simple: insert the key, twist one quarter-turn, then open the station’s front cover, causing the spring-loaded operation handle to return to its original position. The alarm switch can then be reset to its normal (non-alarm) position manually (by hand) or by closing the station’s front cover, which automatically resets the switch.
