CHAPTER 1: Introduction

BASIC FEATURES

•Separate sensor and alarm to detect smoke and CO. The two alarm systems work independently.

•Powered by a single 9V alkaline or lithium battery

•Flip-open battery door for easy battery replacement

•Large, easy-to-use Test/Silence button

•Colored lights indicate battery status and service needed.

The CO Alarm

The Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm measures CO levels in the air. It will alarm if CO levels rise quickly (if the heat exchanger on your furnace breaks, for example), or if CO is consistently present (a slow CO leak in your stove or water heater).

•Features Solid-state Infrared Reservoir (SIR) Sensor System

•“CO” alarm light flashes when CO alarm is triggered

•Silence feature quiets alarm horn while you take corrective action

The Smoke Alarm

The Smoke Alarm monitors the air for the presence of combustion particles (produced when something burns). When enough combustion particles reach the smoke sensing chamber, it triggers an alarm.

•Ionization Technology

•“SMOKE” alarm light flashes when smoke alarm is triggered

•Silence feature quiets alarm horn in response to unwanted alarms like those caused by cooking smoke

SC1000BN specifications

The BRK electronic SC1000BN is a state-of-the-art smoke and carbon monoxide detector designed for enhanced safety in residential and commercial environments. At the heart of its design is the dual sensor technology, which combines both photoelectric and ionization detection methods. This dual system is crucial in detecting a wide range of fire types, from smoldering fires to fast flaming ones. The photoelectric sensor is particularly effective for detecting smoke from smoldering fires, while the ionization sensor effectively detects fast-flaming fires, making this detector a well-rounded solution for various fire scenarios.

A standout feature of the SC1000BN is its sealed lithium battery, which boasts a lifespan of up to 10 years. This eliminates the hassle of battery replacements and ensures that the unit remains operational for a decade. Users can feel secure knowing that the detector will function seamlessly without the need for intervention. Additionally, the detector has a convenient end-of-life signal, alerting users when it’s time to replace the unit itself, ensuring that safety is never compromised.

Another important technology integrated into the SC1000BN is its smart chip technology. This enables the detector to accurately differentiate between various potential threats, reducing false alarms and providing peace of mind to users. The device is also equipped with a loud 85-decibel alarm that ensures occupants are promptly alerted in case of an emergency.

Installation of the SC1000BN is straightforward, with a low-profile design that blends seamlessly into any environment. The unit can be mounted on ceilings or walls, and its aesthetic design complements modern home decor. Furthermore, the detector meets the strictest safety standards, including certification from Underwriters Laboratories (UL), ensuring reliability and efficacy.

In addition to its primary functions, the SC1000BN also features a test/silence button that allows users to check the functionality of the unit or silence false alarms without removing the battery. The combination of advanced detection methods, long-lasting power, and user-friendly features makes the BRK electronic SC1000BN an essential device for enhancing safety and promoting peace of mind in any space. With its commitment to advancing safety technology, BRK electronic continues to be a trusted name in smoke and carbon monoxide detection.
