Innovative Design & Practical Features

Complete Visual Information

Three separate indicating LED's provide visual information: healthy mains supply, CO level sensed/alarm status, and if a fault is detected during the unit's integral self-test.

The alarm LED varies its rate of flash depending upon the CO level sensed - giving further information on any dangerous levels of CO.

Operating the test button will also activate the memory feature and the LED will indicate the previous maximum CO level sensed.

Kitemarked to

BS EN 50291:2001

All Ei CO alarms carry the British Standards Institute Kitemark to indicate that they have been 3rd party tested, by BSI, to

BS EN 50291:2001. This replaces the previous BS 7860:1996 and is a more demanding standard.

The main change to the standard is a lowering to the CO triggering levels combined with new time/response limits to protect more vulnerable people groups and alleviate false alarms.

Rechargeable Lithium Cells used in Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC Models

High performance rechargeable vanadium pentoxide lithium cells are used in the Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC alarms and offer the most effective and reliable back-up power, giving a true 10Yr+ life.

As the cells are rechargeable, they obviate the need for

battery replacement - saving both time and money. Also, due to them being an integral part of the internal circuitry, any possible casual removal is prevented.

Easi-fit Mounting Plate

(Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC)

The Easi-fit mounting plate included with Ei260 series alarms has a built-in connector block with large, clearly marked 'Easi-see, Easi-connect' wiring connections to make wiring as simple as possible. Due to the unique design, no extra pattress or mounting box is required, saving valuable time and money.
