Wholesale PricingThe Ansul Remote Manual Pull Station (P/N 435960) is the manual activation point for an Ansul R-102 Restaurant Fire Suppression System, the pre-engineered wet chemical system that protects commercial kitchen hoods, ducts, and cooking appliances. Molded from red composite material for immediate visual identification, the pull station gives kitchen staff a way to trigger a full system discharge by hand, independent of the automatic fusible link detection network, whenever a fire is spotted before heat alone would trip the system.
This unit ships with a 50 ft length of the same stainless steel detection cable used throughout the system, the cable that runs through conduit, pulley elbows, and pulley tees back to the AUTOMAN regulated release mechanism. Pulling the station's ring handle relieves cable tension at the release mechanism's trip lever, actuating the system exactly as a separated fusible link would. The station is installed at a point of egress, mounted at a height set by the authority having jurisdiction, so staff can trigger the system on their way out of the kitchen during an emergency.

The R-102 system is a pre-engineered system under NFPA 17A and must be installed and serviced only by an Ansul certified distributor. Installing or relocating a pull station outside of that certification can affect cable tension throughout the detection network and compromise the system's ability to actuate correctly.
- Monthly Visual Inspection: Confirm the pull station is unobstructed, the pull ring is intact, and any tamper seal is in place.
- Semiannual Professional Service: Required under NFPA 17A and NFPA 96, a qualified technician must test the pull station by manually actuating the system per the manufacturer's testing procedure and verify proper cable tension throughout the run.
- Post-Discharge Service: After any actuation, the pull station, cable, and full detection network must be inspected, reset, and recertified before the system returns to service.
How is this different from the version without the dual block?
This pull station is the standard configuration paired with 50 ft of detection cable. A dual block version adds a junction component used when the detection cable network needs to route in two directions from the same point. Your certified R-102 distributor will specify which configuration your system's layout requires.
Can kitchen staff use this instead of an extinguisher for a small fire?
The pull station is designed to trigger a full wet chemical discharge over the hood, duct, and protected appliances, not as a substitute for a portable extinguisher on a small, contained fire. Staff should still keep a Class K extinguisher accessible for flare-ups, and pulling the station is the appropriate response when a fire is spreading beyond what a portable extinguisher can handle.
Can I install this myself if I am comfortable with basic wiring and mounting?
No. The R-102 system is a pre-engineered, certified fire suppression system. Installation and any modification to the pull station or detection cable network must be performed by an Ansul certified distributor to maintain the system's listing and ensure correct actuation.
