This alarm is the radio-interlinked version of the Ei2110e, a multi-sensor fire alarm that contains two separate sensing elements – optical and heat. As the unit monitors two different by-products of fires (smoke and temperature), its response to all types of fire is vastly improved over traditional single sensor alarms and reduces the number of false alarms in the premises.
Provides low battery warning and features a test/hush button facility
Unique dust compensation feature (the alarm automatically adjusts for any contamination within the optical sensor chamber)
Supplied with fixings; 2 x screws and 2 x rawl plugs
This alarm is also suitable for the updated 2022 Scottish legislation for fire alarms in homes
Please Note: These units use the radio-interlink frequency 868.499MHz. This bandwidth is restricted for safety products, therefore the chances of interference should be limited.
Mains powered Ei Electronics smoke and heat alarms require a 230V AC power supply and up to 12 alarms can be hardwire interlinked in one system.
To obtain a mains power supply, each alarm can be connected to the nearest lighting circuit using 2 core and earth cable with a separate, dedicated interlink cable connecting alarms where applicable. However, if possible it is recommended that any alarms connected via interlink cable are all powered from a dedicated circuit from the distribution board using 3 core and earth cable for safety during maintenance, as the interlink cable will carry power from live alarms on other power circuits. Please see the diagram below:-
Q. Why do your mains powered alarms have batteries?
A.
All our mains powered alarms have a battery backup. Although mains powered alarms without this option do exist (BS5839 part 6 grade E), we regard them as far too dangerous, as a lot of fires are caused by electrical faults leaving the building unprotected against fire if the smoke alarms have no backup battery. With our mains powered alarms you will always be protected.
Q. Do you need an electrician to connect mains powered smoke alarms?
A.
It is necessary that an electrician installs mains powered smoke alarms.
Q. Does the Ei2110 multi sensor model need to be fitted by a qualified electrician?
A.
We would always recommend a qualified electrician to fit these mains powered smoke alarms for you .
Q. Can the mains powered smoke alarm range be connected to mains power via the lighting circuit?
A.
Yes, hard-wired mains powered alarms can be wired to the unswitched live feed of the nearest frequently used lighting circuit.
Q. Does this alarm conform to BS 5446 part 1 as recommended by the Fire Service?
A.
BS 5446-1:2000 was withdrawn in 2008 and replaced by BS EN 14604:2005 to conform with European standards. All of our alarms containing a smoke detector (smoke only, smoke & heat, smoke & CO) are fully compliant with BS EN 14604:2005. They also comply with any other relevant standards relating to their other detection capabilities.
