Potter Electric 1000620-38 Fire Suppression Release

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US 1000620-38 is a weatherproof, low-profile fire suppression release station designed for use in manual fire suppression and alarm systems. This pull station is built to trigger suppression system releases when activated, making it a critical component in protecting commercial and industrial spaces from fire hazards. It carries the model designation RMS-2T-WP-LP, indicating a dual-action release mechanism in a weatherproof enclosure. Licensed fire alarm and suppression system technicians are the primary installers of this device, and it is sold as a single unit.

This release station is suited for applications where a manual initiation point is required in a fire suppression system, such as commercial kitchens, server rooms, paint booths, or other suppression-protected areas. Its weatherproof construction makes it appropriate for installations in environments exposed to moisture, dust, or harsh ambient conditions. The low-profile form factor allows for mounting in areas where a standard-depth enclosure may not be practical.

• Weatherproof enclosure suitable for demanding or outdoor-adjacent environments
• Low-profile design for installations with space constraints
• Dual-action pull mechanism reduces accidental activation
• Red housing provides high-visibility identification as a fire suppression release point

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm or suppression system technician in accordance with NFPA 72, NFPA 17, or the applicable local fire code. Disconnect and lock out power to the suppression control panel before wiring any initiating device circuit connections. The device should be mounted at the required height per applicable code, typically between 42 and 60 inches above finished floor. Do not energize the suppression release circuit until all wiring connections have been verified and the authority having jurisdiction has been notified.
