The Kidde K-277B-1120 is a single-action, non-coded fire alarm pull station built from rugged LEXAN 940 for commercial and institutional fire alarm systems. Pull the handle, break the glass rod, and the station latches in alarm position until reset with the included key - no momentary contacts, no ambiguity about activation status.
Built for the commercial installer
The 277B series uses 6-inch wire leads for field connections, making termination faster than screw-terminal models in tight boxes. Single pole, open circuit contacts rated at 3.0A / 30 VAC (1.0A / 28 VDC) resistive load handle standard conventional fire alarm panel initiating circuits. ULC listed. Mounts semi-flush on a standard North American 4-inch square box with single gang plaster cover (minimum 2-1/4" depth) or surface-mounted with the optional 276B-RSB back box.
Key features
- Single-action activation: one pull breaks the glass rod and latches the alarm - no two-step sequence for building occupants to fumble
- Key reset (276-K1 included): reset requires opening the station with the supplied key, restoring the toggle, and replacing the glass rod
- Wire lead connections: 6" (150mm) leads simplify wiring in standard electrical boxes
- LEXAN 940 construction: red housing with white raised letters stands up to high-traffic commercial environments
- ULC listed: meets Canadian fire alarm system requirements
- General alarm operation: initiates general alarm on the connected fire alarm panel
Mounting
Semi-flush mount on a standard 4" square box with single gang plaster cover (overall minimum depth 2-1/4" / 57mm). For surface installations, use the 276B-RSB surface back box (sold separately). Station dimensions: 3-9/16" W x 5-3/16" H (91mm x 130mm).
