Cat. No. SC1000B
APPLICATION
BRK Electronics Model SC1000B is a 9V battery operated single station Combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm specifically designed for residential and institutional applications including single family homes, multifamily homes, sleeping rooms of hospitals, hotels, motels, dormitories, and other mixed occupancy dwellings as defined in standard NFPA 101. Model SC1000B has been fully tested and complies with Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Single and Multiple Station Carbon Monoxide Detectors UL 2034, with Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Single and Multiple Station Smoke Alarms UL 217, the California State Fire Marshal, and with model building codes published by ICBO, SBCCI, BOCA and CABO.
Model SC1000B combines Smoke Alarm and CO Alarm technologies in one unit. As a Carbon Monoxide alarm, Model SC1000B measures CO levels in the air and alerts the occupant(s) to a potentially dangerous
As a Smoke Alarm, Model SC1000B provides early warning of fire when smoke reaches its Ionization Sensor Chamber. The sensor consists of two electrically charged plates and a source of Americium 241 to ionize the air molecules in the space between the plates. As particles of combustion enter the ionization chamber, they collide and combine with ionized air molecules resulting in a decrease in current between the two plates. Electronic circuitry monitors the change in current. When smoke inside the chamber reaches a threshold level the unit triggers an audible alarm.
Model SC1000B features four colored indicator lights and an 85dB alarm horn for alarm notification. A flashing green LED indicates the unit is receiving power; flashes yellow when battery is low. For easy alarm identification “Flame” and “CO” LED icons flash red respectively when the unit has detected enough smoke and/or CO to trigger an alarm. A flashing yellow LED indicates the unit needs to be serviced or replaced. Different horn patterns make it easy to determine which alarm, smoke or CO, is sounding. It also has a silence feature to temporarily quiet the alarm horn.
Refer to NFPA 72, NFPA101, and with model building codes published by ICBO, SBCCI, BOCA, and CABO for information on the proper location, placement, of Smoke Alarms. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recommends the use of at least one CO Alarm per household, located near the sleeping area. For added protection, install additional CO Alarms in each separate bedroom, and on every level of the home. Also, refer to Model SC1000B - User’s Manual for more information on the proper location, placement, and installation of this Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm.
Mounting hardware and 9V alkaline battery are included with the unit.
