Critical Safety Feature for High-Rise Buildings, Malls, and Emergency Operations
π¨ Introduction
In modern high-rise buildings and public infrastructure, fire safety is non-negotiable. One of the most critical elevator safety features during a fire emergency is the Fireman Switch (also known as the Firefighter’s Recall Switch).
At Torque Elevators LLP, we provide reliable, compliant, and pre-configured Fireman Switches as part of our comprehensive elevator safety and electrical kits, suitable for residential buildings, commercial towers, hospitals, and industrial premises across India, Gulf, Africa, and Asia.
π What Is an Elevator Fireman Switch?
A Fireman Switch is a manual override device installed in elevator systems that allows firefighters to take control of the lift during a fire emergency.
When activated, it immediately sends the elevator to a designated fire recall floor (usually ground level), disables automatic functions, and allows manual operation by firefighters. This ensures safe evacuation, firefighting access, and prevents passengers from becoming trapped in smoke-filled shafts.
⚙️ How the Fireman Switch Works
-
Manual Activation:
Installed at the lobby or control panel, the switch is turned ON manually by fire personnel. -
Recall Function:
The elevator bypasses all existing calls and descends to the recall floor. -
Manual Control Enabled:
Firefighters can now operate the lift using car buttons only, no hall calls allowed. -
Safety Lock-Out:
Automatic mode remains disabled until the switch is manually reset.
