Model Q301, Q301H

Photoelectric smoke alarms are designed to detect visible particles
(associated with slow smouldering fires). Home fires develop in different
ways and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection against fast
flaming fires and slow smouldering fires, both ionisation and photoelectric
alarms should be installed.
