A few year ago the Fire Lite BG10 Pull stations where recalled
Due to the plunger which actuates when station is pulled freezing in place
Well now after testing some Ademco / Honeywell 5140MPS stations I am getting same issues
Did an apartment buildings fire alarm inspection today and both pull stations in the cold corridors stuck and would not actuate. and the plunger switch being used is very similar to the BG-10 that was recalled for repairs or replacement .
The problem with Pull stations other than the occasional sometimes yearly testing they sit and are not activated allowing them to s=get stuck.
The newer Designed BG -12 made by Fire Lite is far superior because it uses a toggle switch which is much better design.
So now I have to notify Honeywell an CPSC to possible issues for a possible recall.
