SAMPLE SPECIFICATION

The smoke detector shall be powered by non- replaceable lithium power cell source, sealed within the detector unit and having a 10 year life. The detector shall have a dual chamber ionization sensor with a nominal sensitivity of 1.2% as measured in a UL smoke box. The detector shall have an activation switch which activates the power cells at time of installation, and which precludes the unit from being mounted unless activated. The unit shall provide a “low power” alarm, at least 28 days before power is depleted, to warn the occupant that the detector must be replaced. A built in test switch shall electronically simulate the presence of smoke, cause the unit to alarm, and test all detector functions. The detector shall provide a loud, audible 85dB alarm at 10 ft., and have a silence button which quiets the detector when depressed. The detector shall be capable of being surface mounted. The detector shall meet UL standards and have a minimum 10 year limited warranty commencing from the date of purchase. The detector shall be a BRK Electronics Cat. No. 4010YR or pre-approved equal.

4010YR specifications

The BRK Electronic 4010YR is a state-of-the-art smoke alarm designed to enhance safety in residential and commercial properties. This advanced unit offers a range of features and technologies that set it apart from traditional smoke detectors, making it an essential addition to modern safety solutions.

One of the standout features of the BRK 4010YR is its dual-sensor technology. This innovative system combines both ionization and photoelectric sensing capabilities. The ionization sensor is particularly effective at detecting fast-flaming fires, while the photoelectric sensor excels in identifying smoldering fires. This dual approach significantly increases the likelihood of early fire detection, reducing the risk of property damage and saving lives.

The 4010YR is equipped with an easy-to-use test/silence button, allowing users to quickly check the functionality of the alarm and to silence any false alarms without disconnecting the battery. Additionally, the unit features an LED indicator that provides a visual alert for different statuses, including power, alarm, and low battery warnings.

Another notable characteristic of the BRK 4010YR is its smart interconnectivity options. This model allows multiple alarms to be interconnected, meaning that if one alarm detects smoke, all interconnected alarms will sound, providing an early warning throughout the entire property. This is especially useful in larger homes or buildings, where a centralized alarm might not be heard in every room.

The BRK 4010YR also features a long-lasting battery life, with a sealed lithium battery that allows for up to 10 years of continuous protection without the need for replacement. This feature ensures that the alarm remains operational without the hassle of frequent battery changes, thereby enhancing convenience and reliability.

In terms of safety certifications, the 4010YR meets and exceeds industry standards, making it a trusted choice among homeowners and safety professionals alike. Its design incorporates a tamper-resistant feature to prevent unauthorized removal, further ensuring it remains functional when it is most needed.

In conclusion, the BRK Electronic 4010YR smoke alarm combines advanced sensing technologies, interconnectivity, and user-friendly features to provide robust fire protection for any space. Its dual-sensor system, lasting battery life, and commitment to safety standards make it a top choice for those looking to improve their fire safety measures. Whether in a home or business setting, the 4010YR represents a significant investment in personal and property protection.
