Architectural and Engineering Specifications
The smoke alarm model shall be P4010LDCS-W or approved equal and is powered by non-replaceable lithium metal batteries with 10-year life. The lithium batteries shall be sealed in the unit to prevent removal and/or tampering. The unit shall incorporate a photoelectric sensor.
The smoke alarm can be installed on the surface of any wall or ceiling following the UL/Manufacturer’s approved placement guidelines. The alarm shall incorporate an activation switch that can be engaged with the included tool or screwdriver to power on the alarm at startup, and deactivate the alarm at end of alarm life.
The P4010LDCS-W shall include a test button that will simulate a fire condition and cause the unit to go into alarm. This sequence tests the unit’s electronics to ensure proper operation.
The unit shall have audible methods for warning of smoke or fire danger: a piezoelectric horn, rated at 85 decibels at 10 feet, and a voice warning. In alarm, the horn will sound in the repetitive manner – three long beeps, a 1.5 second pause, three long beeps, repeating. In between, the unit will announce a voice warning, “Fire!” The red LED ring will flash in conjunction with the alarm sound, and the safety light will illuminate.
The unit shall incorporate wireless alarm interconnect capability, whereas when one interconnected unit sounds an alarm, all other compatible wireless units in the wireless alarm network will alarm. The maximum distance between wireless interconnect models is greater than 300 feet in open air. The alarm interconnect shall be supervised, where an audible and visual indication is given if the alarm loses connection to other units in the network.
A maximum of 24 Kidde Safety devices may be interconnected in a multiple station arrangement. The interconnect system should not exceed the NFPA interconnect limit of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms total (smoke, CO, Smoke/ CO Combination, heat, etc.). With 18 alarms interconnected, it is still possible to interconnect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices and / or relay modules.
The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of UL217, NFPA 72, The State of California Fire Marshall, NFPA101 (One and two family dwellings), Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The alarm shall be UL Listed and shall include a 10-year manufacturer’s limited warranty.
Leading authorities recommend that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help ensure maximum detection of the various types of fires that can occur within the home. Ionization 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 smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms.
