Abstract
A kit incorporating a multi-configurable push-button subassembly for installing an emergency stop/deactivate alarm station which can be configured to operate in any of a momentary (depress and immediate reverse bias return) resetting of a previously inwardly depressed push-button, a latching turn-to-reset for the push button, or a latching key-to-reset for (outwardly) resetting the push button following initial depressing of the same in response to a determined alarm condition. The push button subassembly is integrated into an overall alarm station assembly including a gang box body and attachable backing plate, within which existing switch and wiring components are integrated. A cover attaches over the assembly and both exposes and shields the push button from inadvertent depressed triggering in particular from a side location.
