πŸ”₯ Elevator Fireman Switch: A Life-Saving Emergency Control by Torque Elevators LLP

 Critical Safety Feature for High-Rise Buildings, Malls, and Emergency Operations



🚨 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.


πŸ” 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

  1. Manual Activation:
    Installed at the lobby or control panel, the switch is turned ON manually by fire personnel.

  2. Recall Function:
    The elevator bypasses all existing calls and descends to the recall floor.

  3. Manual Control Enabled:
    Firefighters can now operate the lift using car buttons only, no hall calls allowed.

  4. Safety Lock-Out:
    Automatic mode remains disabled until the switch is manually reset.
