What Is A Pull Station?

Pull stations are manually activated components of a fire alarm system. These are essential components that enable occupants and individuals to send an alarm signal to the entire area incase of a fire emergency. There are two types of pull stations — a single-action pull station and a dual-action pull station. Even though the main goal and functionality are the same, the only difference between the two is that the former is unguarded and mounted on a wall, whereas the latter is protected with a glass cover to discourage casual usage of the equipment.

Why Conduct Pull Station Inspection?

Pull stations are effective and imperative units of the fire alarm system, enabling manual notification to all individuals in the area during a fire scenario. Pull stations that are not well maintained tend to fail during crisis moments — leading to chaos, injuries, and loss of lives. To prevent such a scenario, it’s a must to have regular inspections of all fire alarm pull stations. And to help you with that, we have a digital tool ready for your aid! Our handy pull station functionality checklist provides you with all the crucial factors that need to be checked during the functionality check of the pull station, assessing its functionality and performance, and taking the necessary measures to keep it functioning at all times.
