Aiphone GFK-PS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Aiphone GFK-PS panic switch actually do when someone pulls it?
Pulling the GFK-PS sends an emergency call from the tenant station to a GT-MK(B) guard station, so the guard post gets notified immediately. It is a normally closed, mechanically latching switch, which means once it trips it stays tripped until it is physically reset rather than resetting itself the moment the cord is released. Two ways to trigger it: pull the nylon cord, or pull down the red actuator.
2) Can the GFK-PS pull cord switch be mounted in a wet area like a pool deck or an open parking garage?
Yes. The GFK-PS is built with water-proof construction and is rated for wet locations, so exposed or moisture-prone emergency call points are within its intended use. That covers exterior call stations, parking structures, and similar open-air positions.
3) Is the GFK-PS a normally open or normally closed switch, and does that matter for my wiring?
Normally closed. The circuit is held closed in the resting state and opens when the switch is latched down, which is the supervised arrangement you want on an emergency call line, since a cut cord or broken conductor reads the same as an alarm. Wire it into an input expecting an N/C contact, not an N/O one.
4) Does the Aiphone GFK-PS work with any intercom, or only Aiphone GT systems?
The GFK-PS is a GT Series accessory, and its stated function is triggering an emergency call from a tenant station to a GT-MK(B) guard station. That is the system it is built for. Electrically it is a dry N/C contact rated 24 VDC/500 mA, so any panel input looking for that kind of contact can read it, but the guard-call behavior described is the GT Series pairing.
5) Will this pull station release my exit door in a panic?
No. Despite the name, the GFK-PS is a panic call switch, not door hardware. It signals a guard station that someone needs help; it does not unlatch or unlock anything on its own. For egress you still need an exit device or a request-to-exit arrangement. If you want it to affect a lock, it has to drive a relay rated for that lock's load, since the switch itself is only rated 24 VDC at 500 mA.
6) What voltage and current does the Aiphone GFK-PS panic switch handle?
It is rated 24 VDC at 500 mA. That is a low-voltage dry-contact level rating, so it is sized for signaling an intercom or call system input, not for switching a door strike, a maglock, or any line-voltage load. If you need to drop power to a lock, run the switch into a relay rated for that load instead.
7) Is the GFK-PS suitable for a commercial or multi-tenant building rather than a house?
It is a commercial-grade device. Typical placements are office buildings, multi-tenant residential, healthcare, parking entries, schools, government buildings, and industrial or warehouse sites. Property managers standardizing emergency call points across a portfolio can use the same switch at every exposed location, since the wet-location rating means indoor and outdoor points take the same part.
8) How many versions of the Aiphone GFK-PS are there, and what do I order?
One. The GFK-PS is a single model with no finish, handing, or size options to specify, so the part number is the whole order. The nylon pull cord and red actuator are part of the switch itself.
