BNG & BRG Series

Manual Fire Alarm Stations

GENERAL

The BNG and BRG Manual Fire Alarm Pull Stations each

provide a single-action, normally open contact, alarm initi-

ating point for use with Fire Alarm Control Panels. The

BNG Station is non-code, non-break-glass type. The BRG

Station is non-code, break-glass type.

FEATURES

• Within ADA 5 lb. pull force.

• Sturdy metal construction.

• Simple operation.

• Operation does not require replacement of parts (BNG

only).

• Drawing of flames on cover helps communicate pur-

pose of this device to people who do not read.

• Designed to prevent false alarms when bumped, shaken

or jarred.

• Spanish version (FUEGO) (BNG-1SP).

• Meets UL 38 Standard for manually actuated signaling

boxes.

APPLICATIONS

Designed for indoor use in atmospheres which are not po-

tentially explosive. Use as a means of allowing anyone on

the premises to turn in non-coded alarm quickly without

chance of error. There is no need for delay. There is no

danger of giving incorrect or incomplete instructions. Typi-

cal users include:

1. Schools.

2. Hospitals.

3. Retail stores.

4. Industrial plants.

5. Warehouses.

Compatible with any appropriate control panel. May be used

to:

1. Initiate local alarm signals.

2. Trip a municipal fire alarm box.

3. Start fire pumps.

4. Initiate other functions which can be initiated by the

closing.

OPERATION

The stations are operated by a pull on the pull cover. This

causes a key latch to act against a retaining mechanism

until adequate force is applied to open the station. As the

station opens, a switch is released to initiate an alarm. The

retainer used in Model BRG is a glass rod. When oper-

ated, the cover hangs down (and cannot be made to stay

in a closed position) indicating that the station was used to

turn in the alarm. OPERATED STATIONS CAN BE SEEN

UP TO 100 FEET AWAY. Resetting is easily accomplished

using a reset key.

The attractive design of the station highlights its engineered

simplicity and unusual dependability; bumping, shaking,

or jarring will not activate the switch or circuit. Instructions

for operation of the station are provided on the front of the

pull cover. The BNG and BRG Stations are both die-formed

from 1/8" thick satin-finish aluminum, with the operating

instructions in raised letters. Stations come in surface

mounting models only. BNG and BRG contacts are rated

at: 1 amp., 30 VAC, and 30 VDC. The master key fits all

stations used in an installation of the same series.

INSTALLATION

The station mounts with two screws (supplied) to a stan-

dard single-gang electrical switch box. It can also be

mounted to a surface-mount box.
