Safety Technology Int'l SS20A8EX-EN Red Stopper Station

Product Description

The Safety Technology Int'l SS20A8EX-EN is a red stopper station designed for use with the STI-6517A shield, providing a protective enclosure and activation point for exit devices and push button systems. This unit serves as a physical deterrent and alert mechanism, combining a guarded cover with a push button or pull station to prevent accidental or unauthorized activation. It is designed for installation by licensed electricians or fire alarm technicians in commercial and light industrial facilities where controlled egress or emergency notification systems are required.

The SS20A8EX-EN is suited for commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and industrial sites where exit device push buttons require tamper-resistant, break-glass or lift-cover protection. The paired STI-6517A shield integrates with this stopper station to guard the underlying activation device while keeping it accessible in a genuine emergency. Install scenarios typically include interior corridor doors, stairwell exits, and controlled-access points on fire alarm or access control circuits.
