Discontinued Product - No Compatible Replacement
Please Note: BRK have withdrawn from the European market and there is no compatible alternative that will fit into your existing system. Since it is not possible to interlink alarms from different manufacturers, new alarms will be needed throughout. The recommended replacement for the whole discontinued BRK 600MBX range is the Kidde Firex series. This will require an electrician to replace your old BRK bases with new Kidde bases.

The BRK 660MBX mains powered optical smoke alarm uses thermally enhanced sensing technology to quickly detect slow smouldering fires. Fitted with a 9V alkaline back-up battery to continue powering the alarm after a mains failure, the 660MBX can be hard wire interlinked with up to 12 smoke and heat alarms within a single system.
Please note: for surface-mounted wiring such as trunking the base plate included with this alarm is not suitable; please see the BRK 760MRL with push-fit base instead.

It is necessary that an electrician installs mains powered smoke alarms.
No, to stop the alarms from sounding the hush button on the unit that started the process needs to be pushed. Pressing any other unit will just silence that one unit. The unit can be identified by the rapidly flashing red LED.
BS 5839-6 recommends that one or two storey HMOs with an individual floor area of no more than 200sqm (not the total of both floors) should have a Grade D smoke alarm system installed. Grade D refers to mains powered smoke alarms with a back up battery power supply. The alarms can be interlinked either by wire or by radio signal and the system does not require a separate fire alarm panel. For HMOs of 3 storey or higher, a Grade A panel system would need to be installed. This can cover the whole of the building, or can be used just for the communal areas with a separate Grade D system installed for the individual dwellings. For both applications, the level of cover should be a minimum of LD3 (in all escape routes) but this may change according to the fire risk assessment.
Yes, the 650MBX is compatible with the rest of the 600 series including the 660MBX.
