Technical Specification
1.
The Smoke Alarm carries the BSI Kitemark to indicate type testing to BS EN14604: 2005. It will meet the requirements of Grade D (and exceed the
requirements of Grades E and F) as defined in BS 5839: Pt.6: 2004. It carries the CE mark to indicate conformance to Low Voltage and Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directives.
2.
Optical (photoelectric) sensor with large volume chamber and large high sensitivity photodiode. Insect resistant fine mesh screen with holes less than
0.030 inches.
3.
230V AC Mains Power Supply with built-in tamper proof Rechargeable Vanadium Pentoxide Lithium standby cells, capable of lasting at least 10 years and
powering the alarm initially for at least 6 months in the event of mains power failure.
The Lithium cell manufacturer endorses a minimum 10 year life
expectation for the rechargeable cells.
4.
Built-in sounder gives a minimum sound output of 85db(A) at 3 metres. Frequency is in the range 2200/2800Hz. The diameter of the piezo disc in the
sounder measures 40mm and has wire contacts soldered directly on to the piezo disc. The sounder includes a resonator or “trumpet” 30mm in length and
reaches to the lid of the outer casing in order to amplify the sound.
5.
Interconnection capability such that if one alarm sounds all interconnected alarms sound. Up to 20 units, Ionisation, Optical or Heat, can be
interconnected in this way providing a relay is not used.
6.
Manual integral ‘Test/Hush’ button tests circuitry, sensor and horn and activates all interconnected alarms in the system. Also operates 'Hush' feature to
silence nuisance alarms. Red LED on alarm cover will flash every 10 seconds to indicate that alarm is in 'Hush' mode and will automatically reset after
approximately 10 minutes.
