DESCRIPTION
The DCP-AMS are the Hochiki America series of addressable manual pull stations
that provide a fast and practical means of manually initiating a fire alarm
signal. Both single action and dual action manual pull stations are available.
Resetting of the pull station requires either a Cat 30 key or a 1/8″ hex key
(depending upon the model used).
An alarm condition is actuated by pulling down on the handle of the DCP-AMS
and DCP-AMS-KL single action models. On the dual action models DCP-AMS-LP and
DCP-AMS-KL-LP the Lift and Pull cover must be lifted before pulling down on
the pull station handle. Once the pull station is activated, the handle cannot
be put back into a normal standby condition without using the key operated
reset feature.
The DCP-AMS series is electronically addressable and includes a bi-colored
status LED. The LED blinks green indicating normal communication with the DCP
compatible SLC loop. When an alarm condition is actuated by pulling the
handle, the LED will latch Red to indicate the alarm condition.
