Potter Electric 1000470 Glass Rod Pull Station Part

Product Description

The Potter Electric Signal Co. US 1000470 is a replacement glass rod designed for use with compatible manual pull stations in fire alarm systems. The glass rod serves as a breakable element within the pull station mechanism, providing the physical resistance that must be overcome during manual activation. When the pull station handle is pulled, the glass rod fractures, completing the alarm circuit and triggering the fire alarm panel. Installation and replacement of this component is typically performed by licensed fire alarm technicians as part of routine inspection, maintenance, or post-activation reset procedures.

This glass rod is suited for use in commercial and residential fire alarm installations where compatible Potter Electric pull stations are deployed. It is a direct service part intended to restore a previously activated or damaged pull station to operational readiness. Fire alarm inspectors and system technicians will encounter this component during annual inspection cycles or after any manual alarm activation event that requires pull station reset.

Installation Notes

Installation and replacement should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and local authority having jurisdiction requirements. De-energize or place the fire alarm control panel in test mode before servicing the pull station to prevent an unwanted alarm dispatch. Handle the glass rod carefully to avoid premature breakage during installation. After replacement, verify pull station operation per the manufacturer service documentation before returning the system to normal mode.
