Description:
The BG-12LA Pull Station is a non-coded manual pull station
which provides a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) with a single

DC), for auxiliary functions. The BG-12LA is a dual action
model equipped with a key lock reset. It is UL listed and meets
the ADA requirement of a 5-lb. maximum pull down force to
activate. Operating instructions are molded into the handle.
Molded terminal numbers can also be found adjacent to the
wiring terminals.
