Apollo XP95 I.S. Manual Call Point
£190.19 (inc VAT: £228.23)
Summary
The XP95 Intrinsically Safe Manual Call Point is specifically designed for fire alarm applications in hazardous areas. Operating as part of a radial circuit when connected to a protocol translator and galvanic barrier, this addressable device provides reliable manual fire alarm activation in challenging environments.
When activated, the manual call point interrupts the polling cycle to immediately indicate to the fire control panel that it has been operated, whilst simultaneously reporting its unique address. This enables both alarm notification and precise location identification to be communicated in less than 0.2 seconds, ensuring rapid emergency response.
The device features a resettable element that, when pressed, initiates an alarm indicated by a yellow and black bar in the lower section and illumination of the red LED. Simple front-access resetting is achieved using the supplied reset key. Installation is streamlined through a removable terminal block system that neatly accommodates all cabling at the rear of the unit.

FAQ
What is an intrinsically safe manual call point?
An intrinsically safe manual call point is a fire alarm activation device specifically designed for use in hazardous areas where flammable gases, vapours, or dust may be present. It operates at low energy levels that cannot generate sufficient heat or sparks to cause ignition, making it safe for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
What additional equipment is required for installation?
The XP95 I.S. Manual Call Point requires connection to a protocol translator and galvanic barrier to operate as part of a radial circuit in hazardous areas. These components ensure intrinsically safe operation and proper communication with the fire control panel.
How quickly does the device report an alarm?
When activated, the manual call point interrupts the polling cycle and reports both the alarm and its address to the fire control panel in less than 0.2 seconds, enabling extremely rapid emergency response.
Can the XP95 I.S. Manual Call Point be used outdoors?
Yes, the device is rated to IP67 and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, providing protection against dust ingress and temporary water immersion.
How is the manual call point reset after activation?
The device can be easily reset from the front using the reset key supplied with the unit. An activated alarm status is indicated by a yellow and black bar in the lower section of the resettable element and illumination of the red LED.
What is the optional transparent cover for?
A transparent hinged cover (Part No. 26729-152) is available as an optional accessory to provide protection against accidental operation. However, it should be noted that the XP95 I.S. Manual Call Point does not comply with EN 54-11 when fitted with the hinged cover.
What temperature range can the device operate in?
The standard operating temperature range is -20°C to +70°C. For specific ATEX temperature classifications, it operates at -20°C to +45°C for T5 classification and -20°C to +60°C for T4 classification.
