End of Life

When the unit has completed up to 6 years of operation the amber light will flash every 40 seconds. The entire unit must then be replaced.

It must also be replaced when the date on the “Replace Unit by” label on the side wall is exceeded.

When the battery is depleted the unit will beep every 45 seconds when the green light flashes. The beeps on an Ei205EN or Ei205CEN CO Alarm only may be silenced by cutting the wire situated under the cover. See figures 5a & 5b to see how to remove the cover and locate the wire. On other units first remove the battery cells.

Among its flagship products are the Ei 205CEN, Ei 205EN, Ei 205ENA, and Ei 204EN models, each featuring advanced technologies designed to provide reliable and effective fire safety solutions.

The Ei 205CEN is a high-performance optical smoke alarm. Its unique design incorporates a state-of-the-art photoelectric sensing technology that enhances its ability to detect slow-burning fires, such as those caused by smoldering materials. This model features a sealed lithium battery that ensures longevity and requires minimal maintenance. Additionally, it is equipped with a test and hush button for user convenience.

The Ei 205EN model takes safety a step further, offering both smoke and carbon monoxide detection capabilities. This dual-functionality makes it an ideal choice for households concerned about the dangers posed by both smoke and toxic gases. The Ei 205EN utilizes the same photoelectric sensing technology as the Ei 205CEN, ensuring rapid response to threats. Moreover, it has an easy-to-read LED indicator that provides visual feedback on the status of the unit, enhancing user awareness.

Building on the features of the Ei 205EN, the Ei 205ENA includes an added benefit of an emergency escape light. This model provides not only smoke and carbon monoxide detection but also illumination during power outages, guiding residents to safety in critical situations. Its intelligent design ensures that the escape light activates automatically when the alarm is triggered, providing peace of mind during emergencies.

Lastly, the Ei 204EN model is designed primarily for smoke detection, utilizing an enhanced photoelectric sensor that minimizes false alarms while maintaining high sensitivity to legitimate threats. This model is particularly suited for areas where unwanted alarms can be disruptive, such as kitchens and living rooms.

Each model in the Ei Electronics lineup is engineered with user-friendly features including clear audio alerts, easy installation, and battery backup options. Collectively, these devices contribute to a comprehensive home safety system that prioritizes user protection and peace of mind. With a commitment to reliability and innovation, Ei Electronics continues to lead the way in smoke and carbon monoxide detection technology.
