Special Compliance Considerations

WARNING!

This unit alone is not a suitable substitute for complete ﬁre detection systems in places housing many people—like apartment buildings, condominiums, hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals, long-term health care facilities, nursing homes, day care facilities, or group homes of any kind—even if they were once single- family homes. It is not a suitable substitute for complete ﬁre detection systems in warehouses, industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and special-purpose non-residential buildings which require special ﬁre detection and alarm systems. Depending on the building codes in your area, this unit may be used to provide additional protection in these facilities.

The following information applies to all four types of buildings listed below:

In new construction, most building codes require the use of AC or AC/DC powered smoke alarms only. AC, AC/DC, or DC powered smoke alarms can be used in existing construction as speciﬁed by local building codes. Refer to NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code) or NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm Code), local building codes, or consult your Fire Department for detailed ﬁre protection requirements in buildings not deﬁned as “households.”

Single-Family Residence:

Single family dwelling, townhouse.

Multi-Family or Mixed Occupant Residence: Apartment building, condominium. This type of unit is suitable for use in individual apartments or condos, provided a primary ﬁre detection system already exists to meet ﬁre detection requirements in common areas like lobbies, hallways, or porches. Using this type of unit in common areas may not provide sufﬁcient warning to all residents or meet local ﬁre protection ordinances/regulations.

Institutions:

Hospitals, day care facilities, long-term health care facilities. This type of unit is suitable for use in individual patient sleeping/resident rooms, provided a primary ﬁre detection system already exists to meet ﬁre detection requirements in common areas like lobbies, hallways, or porches. Using this type of unit in common areas may not provide sufﬁcient warning to all residents or meet local ﬁre protection ordinances/regulations.

Hotels/Motels:

Also boarding houses and dormitories. This type of unit is suitable for use inside individual sleeping/ resident rooms, provided a primary ﬁre detection system already exists to meet ﬁre detection requirements in common areas like lobbies, hallways, or porches. Using this type of unit in common areas may not provide sufﬁcient warning to all residents or meet local ﬁre protection ordinances/ regulations.

4120B, M06-2016-007 specifications

The BRK electronic M06-2016-007,4120B is a cutting-edge detection device designed for modern safety needs. This model exemplifies BRK's commitment to innovation, reliability, and user-friendly functionality. The M06-2016-007,4120B is primarily a smoke and carbon monoxide detector, ensuring comprehensive protection against two of the most prevalent household hazards.

One of the standout features of this model is its advanced photoelectric sensing technology. Unlike traditional ionization smoke detectors that rely on radioactive materials, the photoelectric sensor uses light beams to detect smoke particles effectively.

In addition to its smoke detection capabilities, the M06-2016-007,4120B efficiently monitors carbon monoxide levels. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can be deadly in high concentrations. The detector continuously samples the air and provides real-time readings to alert occupants when levels become dangerous. This dual functionality makes the M06-2016-007,4120B a two-in-one safety device, underscoring its versatility.

The alarm system of the M06-2016-007,4120B is robust and designed for maximum audibility, ensuring that even in the sleep state, alerts can be heard. It features a loud siren that meets industry standards, providing reassurance that occupants will be warned in the event of an emergency.

Powering the device is a reliable battery backup that ensures continued operation even in power outages, making it a dependable choice for safety-conscious consumers. Furthermore, the device incorporates a low-battery alert feature to remind users when it's time to replace the batteries, enhancing ongoing reliability.

Moreover, the M06-2016-007,4120B boasts an easy installation process, allowing homeowners to set it up without the need for professional assistance. The compact design ensures it can fit seamlessly into various home environments without being intrusive.

In conclusion, the BRK electronic M06-2016-007,4120B is a highly effective smoke and carbon monoxide detector that combines advanced technology with practical safety features.
