Available in the UK from specialist distributor, Dalroad, the latest range of firefighter switches (also known as fireman switches) from Finnish manufacturer, Katko are a rung up in design, performance and value for money.

Firefighter switches are special safety switches sited on the exterior walls of petrol stations, shops and shopping centres, nightclubs, theatres, hotels, restaurants etc., which, in an emergency, firefighters use to turn off neon lighting and signage to prevent detonation and explosion.

Katko’s latest generation 16-63A maintenance free range meets all relevant British and International standards/accreditations and wiring regulations, and units come complete with cable entry glands for fast and hassle free installation.

Features include a side mounted, pole operated, ring handle which automatically locks in the ‘OFF’ position, a red metal clad IP66 rated enclosure with door interlocked cover containing a 3 or 4 pole, fully rated load break switch, 3 cable entries and padlockable handle.

A sure-fire hit with specifiers and contractors the new Katko 16-63A maintenance free range of firefighter switches are available, supported by highly knowledgeable sales engineers, from UK distributor, Dalroad.
