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.
