Product overview

The KAL455 is a RED, addressable manual call point for manual fire activation of fire detection systems running Kilsen protocol. Up to 125 KAL455 devices may be installed on every loop. Device addressing is done via easy to use DIP switches.

Configuration

The KAL455 provides an LED indication as well as manual test facilities. The LED may be configured to inciate communication with the fire panel as confirmation of proper operation. Accessories for flush mounting are available.

Application

Manual call points are normally used as a user interface to an automatic fire detection system. It allows the user a direct interface into the system, to create an alarm at a very early stage (possibly even before the fire system has detected the fire), or as a confirmation of a fire alarm.

Installation

The KAL455 is normally fixed on a wall at a height of 1.2 to 1.5 m from the floor. They are used at emergency exit points and at strategic locations thoughout a building so that the distance from any location in the building to the nearest manual call point never exceeds more than a certain distance (verify installation distances according to local regulations).
