• Traditional familiar appearance GSA-M270 models feature our familiar teardrop design with simple positive pull action and sturdy die-cast metal body.
• One stage (GA), two stage (pre-signal), and double action models GSA-M270 models are available for one or two stage alarm systems. The single stage double action GSA-M278 features a rugged Lexan housing with keyed reset mechanism.
• Break glass operation An up-front visible glass rod on the GSA-M270 discourages tampering.
• Intelligent device with integral microprocessor All decisions are made at the station allowing lower communication speed while substantially improving control panel response time. Less sensitive to line noise and loop wiring properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required.
• ADA Compliant Meets ADA requirements for manual pull stations.
• Electronic Addressing with Non-volatile memory Permanently stores programmable address, serial number, type of device, and job number. Automatically updates historic information including hours of operation, last maintenance date, number of alarms and troubles, and time and date of last alarm.
• Automatic device mapping Each station transmits wiring information to the loop controller regarding its location with respect to other devices on the circuit.
• Stand-alone operation The station inputs an alarm even if the loop controller’s polling interrogation stops.
• Diagnostic LEDs Status LEDs; flashing GREEN shows normal polling; flashing RED shows alarm state.
• Designed for high ambient temperature operation Install in ambient temperatures up to 120 °F (49 °C).
Application
The operating characteristics of the fire alarm stations are determined by their sub-type code or “Personality Code”. NORMALLYOPEN ALARM - LATCHING (Pesonality Code 1) is assigned by the factory; no user configuration is required. The device is configured for Class B IDC operation. An ALARM signal is sent to the loop controller when the station’s pull lever is operated. The alarm condition is latched at the station.
