Potter Electric Signal pad100-pssa Pull Station 24VDC

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL pad100-pssa is a single action manual pull station designed for fire alarm system installations in commercial and institutional buildings. This device provides a mechanical interface for initiating fire alarm sequences when pulled by a building occupant or first responder. It operates on 24 volts DC nominal and features a contact rating of 2 amps at 30VDC resistive. The activation force required is less than 5 pounds, meeting accessibility requirements for manual pull stations. Licensed fire alarm technicians and life safety contractors install this device as part of addressable or conventional notification system layouts.

The pad100-pssa is suited for commercial, institutional, and light industrial environments where a reliable manual initiation point is required. It integrates with Potter Electric Signal control panels, fire alarm transponders, and building management systems. Typical installations include office buildings, schools, hospitals, and multi-tenant facilities. The device handles an operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 120 degrees F, making it appropriate for interior conditioned and unconditioned spaces within that range.
