The In Case of Fire Break Glass FS-318 is a vital emergency activation device used to trigger fire alarms or emergency systems manually. Designed for immediate accessibility during fire outbreaks, this unit alerts building occupants and fire response teams to initiate evacuation and firefighting procedures swiftly.

The FS-318 unit features a durable, impact-resistant frame with a clearly marked glass or plastic panel that can be broken easily to activate the connected fire alarm system. It typically includes a resettable mechanism or a replaceable glass element for continued usability after activation. The panel is bright red for high visibility and labeled with bold text such as “Break Glass in Case of Fire” for instant recognition. Compatible with most conventional and addressable fire alarm systems, it is compliant with international fire safety standards like BS EN 54 and IS codes.

Widely used in commercial buildings, hospitals, schools, industrial units, and public spaces, the FS-318 ensures manual fire alarm activation when automatic detection systems are delayed or inaccessible. Positioned strategically along evacuation routes and near fire extinguishers or hose reels, it enhances overall emergency readiness and helps save lives during critical moments.
