Manufacturer of evacuation devices, KAC Alarm Company, has launched a new Triple Pole Call Point which they say is designed to provide greater functionality for the access control market.
KAC explain that the M8 device is for use with internal security controlled locking systems, adding that it compliments the firm’s double and single pole variants. The third pole provides additional flexibility to activate a local alarm or sounder or to connect to the building’s security system, they say, adding that activating a combined evacuation response from a single device supports a growing demand for building system integration, where both access control and security monitoring is required.
Raxa Chauhan, KAC Product Manager, comments: “KAC is renowned for call point manufacturing, having pioneered the technology more than 40 years ago. The market for security devices presents a key growth opportunity…As the M8 has a third pole, it can switch three separate circuits. This ensures failsafe unlocking of the exit and supports best practice evacuation in the event of an emergency.”
