The Edwards 270A-SPO pull station is a single-action, break-glass manual station with 6-inch wire leads. First, the user breaks the glass rod to initiate. Then, the latched alarm contact must be reset with the key. As a result, the station resists accidental activation in everyday traffic.
Specifically, the “A” suffix denotes the wire-lead variant of the 270 series. Therefore, the 270A-SPO is well-suited to junction-box installs where pre-terminated leads simplify the splice. Also, “SPO” identifies the contact configuration as single pole, normally open.
Edwards 270A-SPO construction and listings
The 270 series body is die-cast metal painted red with silver stripes. Furthermore, the casting tolerates rough handling in schools, offices, and industrial corridors. In addition, the station is UL 38 Listed, CSFM, FM Approved, and MEA Listed. However, listings apply at the manual-station level, not at the smoke- or audible-device level.
