Kidde Firex Hardwired Smoke Detector with Ionization and Photoelectric Dual Sensors

A wired, 120-Volt AC smoke alarm with a 9-Volt battery backup is the Kidde PI2010. This smoke alarm works both alone and as part of a larger network. The Kidde PI2010 has a Hush feature that enables you to instantly turn off bothersome alerts. It also has a tamper resist feature that prevents tampering and theft. The quick connect power harness that comes with the PI2010 makes installation quick and simple. This smoke alarm combines ionization and photoelectric sensors. Compared to photoelectric alarms, ionization sensing alarms may be able to identify unseen fire particles (related to blazing flames) earlier. Ionization alarms may not be as quick to pick up visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) as photoelectric detecting alarms.

Features

• Interconnect interconnects with up to 24 Kidde devices on one wiring network of which 18 can be initiating
• Ionization sensor may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms
• Photoelectric sensor may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms
• Battery backup (9-Volt battery included) provides continuous protection even during power outages
• Tamper resistant deters from tampering or theft
• Hush feature temporarily silences nuisance alarms
• Check with your state and local fire and building/safety codes for specific information regarding smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
• Smoke detector utilizes ionization and photoelectric sensors to detect fire hazards and sounds an 85 db alarm when a hazard is detected
