Manual Call Point

Purpose: Installed in public areas such as terminals, platforms, and waiting areas to allow passengers or staff to manually initiate a fire alarm if a hazard is detected.

Reason: In large, crowded areas like airports and train stations, quick identification and response to fires or other emergencies are crucial, and automatic detection systems may not always detect hazards in certain spaces.

Benefit: Provides an accessible and reliable way for individuals to alert authorities and evacuate the area, ensuring public safety and quick emergency response in high-traffic locations.

Purpose: Positioned in hospital corridors, patient rooms, and public spaces to allow medical staff or visitors to manually raise an alarm in case of a fire or emergency.

Reason: Hospitals have specific fire risks, and a fast, manual method of alerting staff and patients is essential to safeguard vulnerable populations such as patients in critical care or restricted mobility.

Benefit: Helps ensure a quick evacuation and emergency response, protecting lives in healthcare environments where rapid action is critical.

• Purpose: Installed in high-risk areas, near heavy machinery, or in storage areas where workers can manually raise the alarm if they detect fire, smoke, or chemical hazards.
• Reason: Industrial facilities often have multiple fire hazards, such as flammable materials or malfunctioning equipment. A manual call point enables immediate action to stop work and begin evacuation.
• Benefit: Enhances safety protocols by allowing workers to trigger alarms quickly, minimizing damage and ensuring workers’ safety in environments where fire risks are higher.
