Kidde Fyrnetics recommends for maximum protection that both ionisation and photo-electric
(optical) smoke alarms be installed. Ionisation sensing alarms may detect invisible fire
particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric
sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow smouldering fires)
sooner than ionisation alarms. Home fires develop in different ways and are often
unpredictable. For maximum protection, Kidde recommends that both Ionisation and
Photoelectric alarms be installed.Heat alarms are useful in areas with
condensation/dust/high humidity, such as kitchens and lofts.
Heat alarms MUST ALWAYS be interconnected to smoke alarms.
Electrical rating 230V AC,
50Hz 80mA max per alarm
(maximum 80mA for originating unit
with 24 Devices interconnected).
These alarms may be used with
the Kidde Wireless base accessory,
enabling interconnection between
alarms, wirelessly. The Remote,
Test & Hush accessory will also
work with alarms on Wireless bases.
