6.7 Configuration of manual call points (MCP)
Manual call points should …
• be installed at intervals of max. 100 m in escape and safety routes in workplaces and facilities at risk of fire
• be installed so that they are clearly visible and easily accessible
• be installed at 1.4 m ± 0.2 m height (pushbutton/control panel above the floor)
• receive adequate daylight or illumination from an alternative light source. If security lighting is available, this
should also illuminate the manual call point
• if necessary be labelled with an additional transparent adhesive sticker acc. DIN 4066
• be clearly labelled if they are not functioning ("not in operation").
In particularly dangerous areas or depending on the use and condition of a building, the distances
between two manual call points should not exceed 40 m. The MCP number and installation position
arrangement must ensure that a person has to cover a distance of no more than 30 m to reach the
max. 100 m / 40 m*
1,4 m
± 0,2 m
