With simple mounting, clear status indication, and multiple contact options, the SM87PB helps you pass audits and standardize safety across sites—available and supplied by Atex Hub.

What is ATEX Call Point in UAE

An ATEX call point (manual call point / MCP) is a hand-operated alarm device designed to work inside or near explosive atmospheres without becoming an ignition source. When activated, it triggers your panel or fire & gas system to start the emergency logic—sounders, beacons, shutdown, or evacuation. The SM87PB is built for high visibility and quick operation, with an impact-resistant housing, sealed switchgear, and Ex-compatible cable entries. In the UAE, harsh sun, airborne dust, and coastal conditions can degrade ordinary equipment. The SM87PB uses corrosion-resistant materials and weather-proof seals to deliver reliable alarms across refineries, offshore modules, pump rooms, and production lines in Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi.

FAQs

1) Break-glass or push-button—what should I choose?
Break-glass discourages accidental activation; push-button is fast for gloved use. Many sites mix both based on risk and location.

2) Will SM87PB work outdoors near the sea?
Yes—choose the weather-proof variant, use Ex glands, and follow the IP66/67 installation steps for coastal UAE sites.

3) Can I get two sets of contacts?
Yes—DPDT options let you signal two systems (e.g., fire panel + local shutdown).

4) How do I reset after activation?
Use the supplied key to reset. Test the indicator and panel input during PM rounds.

5) Which thread/entry should I order?
Match your existing conduit/gland type—M20/M25 or NPT—and select the correct number of entries.

6) How far apart should call points be installed?
Follow your site fire strategy and EN 54-11 guidance. Common practice: place MCPs on exit routes and at defined intervals.

7) Can I retrofit SM87PB into older boxes?
Usually yes. Check footprint, entries, and depth; use thread adapters if needed while maintaining Ex/IP integrity.
