The SK-Pull-DA Addressable pull station is a non-coded, dual-action manual pull station

with a key-lock reset feature. It provides Silent Knight intelligent fire alarm control panels

(FACP) with one addressable alarm initiating input. The addressable module is housed inside

the pull station. The SK-Pull-DA is compatible with all Silent Knight intelligent panels that

use the Intelligent Device Protocol (IDP). Refer to the FACP Installation Manual to determine

if Intelligent Device Protocol is supported. The SK-Pull-DA meets the ADAAG controls

and operating mechanisms guidelines (section 4.1.3[13]), and the ADA requirement for a 5

lb. maximum pull force to activate the pull station. Operating instructions are molded into

the pull station handle along with Braille text. Molded Terminal numbers are also present.

Conforms to ANSI/UL Standard 38.
