#740 Series Break Assemblies are a preferred method of releasing
non-designed egress doors.
The unit consists of a replaceable Break Glass cartridge that
normally holds a plunger activated switch that is depressed until the
cartridge lens is broken.
When the lens is broken, the plunger jumps forward and alters the
switch contact position. Four replacement lens disks are provided
with each assembly.
A small hammer is attached to the Break Glass Assembly via a
mounting clip along with 12” of chain to insure it will not stray from the
assembly.
On the top edge of the assembly is a red sign clearly indicating the
purpose of the release.
The Break Glass Assembly is a preferred alternate to the
conventional pull box installation, as accidental activation is all but
eliminated as far as false alarms are concerned. Breaking the lens
requires more of a commitment on the user’s part than merely pulling
the handle and leaving the scene.
• Surface or mortise mounts, in a standard 3 gang enclosure.
• Compatible with all Fail Safe type Electric Locking Systems.
• An effective alternate to the standard pull box type.
• Standard finish US26, special finishes available, consult factory for
price and delivery.
Laboratories, testing areas, and other similar rooms provided with exit
doors.
Fail Safe multiple door interlocks, where in the event of equipment
malfunction, incorrect usage or wiring, someone may be trapped
between doors.
#742 Similar to #740 with
the addition of an audio
to signal usage.
