Description:

First Alert Model SA302 is a battery operated single station photoelectric and ionization dual sensor smoke alarm specifically designed for residential and institutional applications including sleeping rooms of hospitals, hotels, motels, dormitories, and other multifamily dwellings as defined in standard NFPA 101. Model SA302 has been fully tested and complies with, UL217, CSFM, NFPA 72, and NFPA 101 and other agencies that model their codes after the above agencies. It meets building codes where battery operated photoelectric and ionization dual sensor with Silence smoke alarms are required and with model building codes published by the ICC.

First Alert Model SA302 is a state of the art smoke alarm designed to provide early warning of a fire. It features two smoke sensing chambers, photoelectric and ionization, an 85dB horn, a supervised 9V alkaline battery power supply, a single button test/silence switch, a silence feature to silence unwanted nuisance alarms, a red LED light that indicates DC power or alarm. The alarm can also be silenced by using most Infrared (IR) remote controls. Optipath 360 technologyTM provides 360 degrees of direct access to the smoke sensing chambers. It also features tamper resistant locking pins that lock the alarm to the mounting bracket and/or the battery drawer to prevent removal of battery. Battery installation and removal can occur while the unit is mounted to the ceiling or wall via the slide out battery drawer. When battery power drops to a pre-set warning level, the horn will “chirp” approximately once per minute to indicate a fresh battery is needed. Designed for wall
