The STI-1200A Fire Alarm Cover is specifically designed to enable safe, code-compliant installation of manual fire pull stations in wet, wash-down, or outdoor environments. This rugged enclosure includes a four-inch deep back box and gasketed polycarbonate housing that protects devices from water, humidity, and physical damage—ensuring reliable operation even in the harshest conditions.
Unlike traditional alarm covers that focus on preventing false activations, the STI-1200A is built to solve the unique challenges of mounting fire system components in areas exposed to moisture or direct spray. It allows installers to confidently place addressable pull stations where they’re needed most—without risking corrosion, electrical failure, or code violations.
