The MCP5 Series Explosion-Proof Manual Call Point is a high-performance safety solution designed for use in hazardous areas such as offshore platforms, onshore oil & gas facilities, and chemical processing plants. Engineered to provide manual alarm activation in explosive atmospheres, the MCP5 series offers uncompromised reliability, corrosion resistance, and certification for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous environments.
Ideal for initiating fire alarms, emergency shutdowns, FM-200 release/inhibition, and abandon platform alarms, this call point provides fast manual intervention when every second counts.
FEATURES
-
ATEX/IECEx certified for hazardous zones – safe for explosive gas and vapor environments
-
Marine-grade 316L stainless steel housing – superior corrosion resistance in offshore and harsh industrial environments
-
Supports both AC & DC power supplies – flexible integration into existing alarm systems
-
Optional EOL (End-of-Line) resistor – optimized for DC systems and loop supervision
-
Break-glass alarm with test switch – quick activation with inbuilt function testing capability

Applications
-
Oil and Gas Facilities
In high-risk environments like refineries, LNG plants, and offshore platforms, explosion-proof call points are used to:
Manually initiate fire alarm systems
Activate gas suppression or emergency shutdown systems (ESD)
Ensure quick human response in areas not fully covered by automated detection
These devices must be explosion-proof due to the constant presence of hydrocarbon vapors and pressurized gases. -
Chemical and Petrochemical Plants
Chemical processing zones often deal with volatile solvents and flammable materials. Manual break glass call points are used to:
Trigger alarms during chemical leaks or fires
Enable local emergency response, particularly in remote workstations
Ensure compliance with strict health, safety, and environmental (HSE) standards -
Mining and Underground Operations
In underground environments with coal dust or methane, standard fire alarm systems are not safe. These call points:
Provide manual alarm initiation during underground fires or equipment malfunctions
Are ruggedized to function under high-vibration and low-visibility conditions
What is a Hazardous Area Manual Break Glass Call Point?
Explosion-proof manual call points (MCPs) are safety-initiating devices housed in flameproof or intrinsically safe enclosures. By breaking the glass and pressing the internal switch, workers can immediately trigger an alarm signal—activating fire alarms, gas detection systems, or emergency shutdowns.
They are certified to ATEX, IECEx, UL, CSA, and other global standards, making them suitable for harsh industrial environments with explosive gases, vapors, or dust.
Why Choose Explosion-Proof Manual Call Points?
Eliminate ignition risks in volatile atmospheres
Reliable, tamper-resistant alarm activation
Integration with existing fire and gas detection systems
Compliant with international safety standards
Quick, clear operation under stress or poor visibility
