Memory Feature

The Test/Hush button provides a quick, easy means of both testing the alarm and

controlling any false alarms. Operating the Test button also activates the alarm level memory feature. The last recorded CO level will be shown - through Alarm LED flash rate or digital display (Ei261DENRC only).

Quick Test Feature

Operating the Test button activates the quick CO gas test feature. The unit will then sample for CO 4 seconds later and give an audible and visual warning if CO is sensed - saving time and money particularly when testing units in a large number of properties.

Reliable, Proven Sounder

Giving an output of 85dB(A) at 3m, the alarm signal is loud. The piezo disc sounder element is securely held with silicone mastic to prevent creepage and premature failure. Soldered contacts on the disc further improve reliability when compared to more commonly used pressure contacts, which can be prone to failure due to corrosion and arcing.

Replaceable CO Sensor (Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC)

33% cost saving over the life cycle of comparable products

All CO sensors have a limited life of 5/6 years. But, the unique replaceable sensor module on the Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC alarms doubles the life cycle of the product. This simple to carry out process gives a significant cost saving and eliminates any inconvenience in time spent changing the entire unit.

Proven Electrochemical Cell Sensor coupled with sophisticated electronics provides high quality detection and reliability. Calibrated in CO gas during manufacture, accuracy is assured.

Sensor Replacement

Remote Control Functionality (Ei261ENRC & Ei261DENRC)

Ei260 Series incorporates as standard Remote Control functionality. Allows Alarm Test, Hush and Locate to be performed from an easily accessible wall mounted control switch (optional).

Removal

Insert a screwdriver into the removal slot - releasing the tamper- resistant clip - and slide the alarm off. The cable cover ensures that the mains cables are not exposed.

Sensor Replacement

Slide the alarm off the mounting plate and pull out the sensor module using the exterior tab.

Then simply push the new sensor module in and slide the alarm back on the mounting plate.
