Overview This heat alarm is a fire detection and alarm device which gives off an audible and visual warning when the ambient temperature reaches 54°C to 70°C. These temperatures are abnormal in a typical setting and thus are likely to be caused by an actual fire.
Suitability UltraFire’s range of battery-powered fire detection and alarm devices are designed to meet BS 5839-6 Grade F2 requirements. Even if interlinked as a network with multiple sensor types, these alarms are only intended for use in single household premises which are permitted to use battery- powered alarms.
Alarm Silence Mode WARNING: Before silencing an active alarm you must ensure the environment is safe. Do not silence the alarm in the event of an actual fire, as this may prevent other occupants from evacuating. When in alarm mode, pushing the test button will silence the unit for approximately 10 minutes.

Radio-Interlink UltraFire radio-interlinked alarms are designed to be wirelessly interlinked as a network with up to 50 products. These alarms need to be “learned in” or interlinked in order to communicate with each other. If one alarm activates, all other interlinked alarms will also sound. They are not designed to communicate with wireless alarms from other ranges or manufacturers.
