Fire Alarm Pull Station

This Kidde K-278B-1110 is a red, wall-mounted manual pull station designed for conventional fire alarm systems. It uses a double-action mechanism that requires two distinct motions to activate, reducing false alarms. The unit resets with a tool after an alarm event. It fits standard commercial and institutional installations requiring a visible, accessible initiation device.

Suits conventional 28V DC or 30V AC systems

Installers working on addressable loops or wireless networks cannot use this station. Facilities needing weatherproof or flush-mounted hardware should look at other models. The double-action design may not meet local codes that mandate single-action operation. Buyers requiring a surface-mount backbox or integrated strobe will need separate components.

Double-action tool reset mechanism

Activation requires lifting the cover and then pulling the handle, a sequence that discourages accidental operation. After an alarm, a supplied tool restores the station to standby without opening the housing. This reset method is the primary feature that distinguishes the unit from break-glass or key-reset alternatives. Confirm your panel supports conventional initiating circuits before specifying.

Questions about this item

Will this pull station work with the 28V DC conventional fire alarm system already installed in our building?

Yes, the unit is designed for use with 28V DC or 30V AC conventional fire alarm systems, matching your existing voltage requirement.

How can I verify the station is operational after mounting it on the wall?

Perform a manual activation test; the double-action mechanism requires lifting the cover and pulling the handle, which sends an alarm signal to the control panel confirming operation.

Does the box include the reset tool and mounting hardware, or must I order them separately?

The specifications list no included accessories, so plan to obtain the reset tool and suitable wall-mounting hardware separately before installation.
