£57.17 (inc VAT: £68.60)
Summary
The Kentec K13470M10 System Abort Button Unit provides a highly visible and immediately accessible point for enabling an instant abort of fire protection extinguishant release sequences. This critical safety device serves as the ultimate manual override for fire suppression systems, allowing authorised personnel to halt extinguishant discharge in emergency situations where human safety or system integrity may be at risk.
Featuring a distinctive large red domed pushbutton designed for maximum visibility and easy identification during high-stress emergency situations, the K13470M10 incorporates a sophisticated latching mechanism that activates when pressed. The button remains in the activated position until deliberately reset using a twist action, providing clear visual confirmation that the abort function has been initiated and preventing accidental reactivation of the suppression sequence.
Constructed with a robust 1.2mm mild sheet steel enclosure, the unit offers versatile installation options suitable for various environments. The abort button can be surface mounted directly to walls or other suitable surfaces, or alternatively flush mounted using the optional M10FCLGT collar for a professional, integrated appearance. This flexibility ensures the critical abort function can be optimally positioned for maximum accessibility whilst maintaining compatibility with existing fire protection system aesthetics.

FAQ
When should the abort button be used?
The abort button should be used to immediately halt extinguishant release when human safety is at risk, when the fire has been extinguished by other means, when a false alarm has been identified, or when system maintenance requires stopping the discharge sequence.
How does the latching mechanism work?
When the large red mushroom head button is pressed, it latches in the activated position and remains there until deliberately reset. To reset, the button must be twisted (rotated) to release the latch, providing positive indication that the abort has been acknowledged.
Which control panels is this abort button compatible with?
The K13470M10 is compatible with all Sigma XT+ control panel models, ensuring seamless integration with Kentec’s advanced multi-area extinguishing control systems.
What happens when the abort button is pressed?
Pressing the abort button immediately stops the extinguishant release countdown and prevents discharge. The activation is indicated on the main control panel and the button remains in the latched position as a visual reminder that an abort has occurred.
Can the button be flush mounted?
Yes, the K13470M10 can be surface mounted or flush mounted using the optional M10FCLGT flush mount collar, providing installation flexibility to match site requirements and aesthetic preferences.
Why is the button red and mushroom-shaped?
The large red mushroom head design follows international safety standards for emergency stop functions, providing maximum visibility and easy identification during high-stress emergency situations whilst being easily accessible even when wearing protective equipment.
