Dortronics Emergency Pull Stations Offer Multi-purpose Functionality

  • Sep 28, 2015

At ASIS 2015, Dortronics Systems, Inc. (booth #331) is showcasing its Emergency Pull Station series designed to make it easier for occupants to quickly exit a building.

Ideal for use in hospitals, schools and industrial facilities, and with a variety of door access systems, the 6510-S35 features a single pull action to provide instant egress and alarm activation in the event of an emergency situation. The 6510 COV plastic cover discourages improper activation while providing moisture protection during wash-down operations.

“In an emergency, time is of the essence and safety is of the utmost importance. Our Emergency Pull Stations can be used for emergency egress with interlock or mantrap systems or even as an override to an access control system, making it easier for occupants to exit a building,” said Bryan Sanderford, National Sales Manager, Dortronics Systems, Inc. “They can also be installed quickly and easily and are just as easy to operate for maximum safety and security.”

Designed with dual SPDT switches, one set of contacts breaks the lock power when activated and a second set of contacts allows connection to an alarm or access control system. The unit mounts to a standard single gang electrical box and wiring is accomplished by utilizing the screw terminals on the back of the unit to connect to any system or device. System reset is as simple as inserting the supplied key and installing a new acrylic break rod.

The 6510-S35 is often combined with the 6510 COV which features an anti-tamper cover made from clear, super tough polycarbonate. The 6510 COV can be outfitted with optional enhancements including a Piezo sounder that emits a piercing 95 dB or 105 dB warning horn. Also available as options are a set of SPDT contacts to communicate with any card access system when the cover is opened. Weather proof gaskets are optional for outdoor installations. All models of the 6510 Pull Station are available in three colors and custom text availability.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
