User Manual FSK700-2 / FSK700-2SX
For the safe operation of the Fire Brigade Key Safe, appropriate transport, storage, installation,
commissioning, inspection, proper maintenance and correction of malfunctions, as well as careful
and competent handling are required.
Fire detection systems and devices must, on principle, be installed by and receive maintenance
from regularly trained technical staff only. Special training for technical staff must be performed by
MEP-Gefahrenmeldetechnik GmbH (MEP) or personnel expressly authorised by MEP. Coun-
try-specific standards, rules and regulations, or instructions by MEP must be strictly abided.
For proper functioning of the fire detection system, all devices must be installed according to regu-
lations, and supplied with voltage. It must be ensured that all units are suitable to use under expec-
ted environmental conditions.
All work on the componentry of the Fire Brigade Key Safe must be performed without
voltage. Installation must be thoroughly checked prior to supplying voltage.
Regular maintenance based on country-specific standards must be performed on fire detection sys-
tems. Required repairs are to be promptly performed.
The locking bolt must only be installed in the outer door after both the Fire Brigade Key
Safe and the connected controlling and monitoring device are fully operational!
Also take note of the advice given from page 15 onwards in chapter 3.5: "Preparation of the
Fire Brigade Key Safe", as well as from page 29 onwards in chapter 5.4: "Commissioning
instructions".

Cleaning the Series FSK700 Fire Brigade Key Safe
Series FSK700 Key Safes are manufactured from stainless steel, and as such are – apart from
providing high mechanical stability – mostly corrosion-free. Residue of steel or iron (e.g., grit pro-
duced by brake discs of motorised vehicles), however, can rust and penetrate the corrosion protec-
tion layer of almost any high-grade steel – this can, after prolonged exposure, leave traces of corro-
sion on the Key Safe itself.
To prevent this, the front side of the Key Safe should regularly be cleaned using a plain, non-abras-
ive cleaning aid. Afterwards, special products for care of stainless steel should be applied to the
surface.
Under no circumstances use abrasive detergents – this would scratch the finely polished surface
of the Key Safe!
