FAQ
How does the twist to reset mechanism work?
The emergency button latches in the active position when pushed. To reset the button, you must twist and release it – this deliberate action helps prevent accidental resets while ensuring the emergency state is clearly maintained until deliberately cleared.
What type of contacts does this emergency button have?
The BG-EM-T-0-2-0 features both normally open (N.O.) and normally closed (N.C.) contacts, providing flexibility for different emergency system configurations and ensuring compatibility with various control systems.
What are the break-seal mounting holes used for?
The break-seal mounting holes are positioned on the lower right corner of the cover and central chassis. You can apply easy-break seals through these holes to provide additional security and deter unwanted tampering, with visible evidence if the unit has been accessed.
Is this suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes, the Button-Guard+ is specifically designed for outdoor use. It’s manufactured from UV stabilised polycarbonate to resist sun damage and features weatherproof construction to protect against water and dust ingress in harsh environmental conditions.
What cable entry options are available?
The unit features 20mm threaded cable entry points on both the top and bottom surfaces. The back box can be rotated depending on installation requirements, and you must use suitable IP rated connectors to maintain weatherproof integrity.
Can I get replacement break-seals?
Yes, replacement break-seals are available separately. The UG-BS-10 accessory provides a pack of 10 replacement break-seals for ongoing security maintenance.
