14. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

Battery: Replaceable 9 Volt Alkaline Duracell

(MN1604, Energizer 522 or Eveready 522).

Battery Life: Battery can power unit in standby for over a year.

Power on Indicator: Red light flashes every 40 seconds.

Smoke Sensitivity: Meets or exceeds requirements of

BS5446-1: 2000.

RF & EMC: Complies with the requirements of the RTTE Directive Compatibility 1999/5/EC (RF Performance to EN300220-3, EMC to EMC 301489-3).

Approvals: Approved to BS5446-1: 2000.

Humidity Range: 15% to 95% RH (non-condensing).

Audible Alarm: 85dB at 3m (minimum).

Chamber Fault: The unit checks the sensing chamber every 40 seconds, and it beeps if a fault is found (without red light flashing at the same time) (Ei3105RF only).

Radio Frequency: 868.499 MHz (Regulated 1% duty cycle

band).

RF Power: +5dBm.

Range: 150 meters (minimum) in free space.

Test Button(Ei3100RF):

Checks smoke sensor, electronics & horn.

Test/Hush Button (Ei3105RF):

Checks smoke sensor, electronics and horn. Also silences nuisance alarms for 10 minutes and then resets.

Local Hush Mode (Ei3105RF only): When test/hush button is pressed only that unit goes into hush (reduced smoke sensi- tivity) and sends out an alarm cancel signal so that all other smoke alarms will stop sounding. The other alarms will not have reduced sensitivity. The red light will flash every 10 sec- onds (instead of the normal 40 seconds) on the unit in hush mode.

Low Battery Indication: Unit beeps and red light flashes

every 40 seconds.

RF RECEPTION

Alarm Signal Reception: Turns on horn (without red light flashing on Ei3105RF) for 60 seconds unless it receives an alarm cancel signal within that period.

Duration of House Code Mode: 15 minutes

Ei 3100RF specifications

The Ei Electronics Ei 3100RF is an advanced smoke alarm designed to enhance safety and peace of mind in residential settings. This model stands out due to its integration of cutting-edge technologies and user-friendly features that cater to modern needs.

One of the key features of the Ei 3100RF is its unique radio frequency (RF) interlinking capability. This allows multiple alarms to communicate with each other wirelessly, ensuring that if one alarm detects smoke, all interconnected alarms will sound an alert. This interlinking technology is invaluable in larger homes where the sound from a single alarm may not reach all areas effectively, thereby enhancing overall safety.

The Ei 3100RF utilizes an advanced optical smoke sensing technology. This means it can detect smoldering fires that may not immediately produce flames but can generate significant amounts of smoke. This capability is particularly crucial in residential environments, where early detection can save lives and property. The alarm boasts a high-performance sensing chamber that minimizes false alarms, a common concern with traditional smoke detectors.

Another notable characteristic of the Ei 3100RF is its built-in 10-year lithium battery. This eliminates the hassle of changing batteries regularly and ensures that the unit remains operational for an extended period. The battery's longevity is a significant advantage, as it provides uninterrupted monitoring and alarm functionality over the years.

Ease of installation is yet another feature of the Ei 3100RF. The unit includes a simple mounting process that can be completed in a matter of minutes, making it accessible even for individuals without extensive DIY experience.

Furthermore, the Ei 3100RF incorporates a test button, allowing users to easily verify that the alarm is functioning correctly. Regular testing is essential for maintaining safety standards, and this feature encourages proactive behavior among homeowners.

In addition to its practical features, the Ei 3100RF is designed with a sleek, modern aesthetic, making it suitable for a variety of interior styles without being an eyesore. Safety doesn't have to compromise design, and this product exemplifies that philosophy.

In conclusion, the Ei Electronics Ei 3100RF is an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable, advanced smoke alarm. With its RF interlinking technology, optical detection capabilities, long-life battery, easy installation, and user-friendly features, the Ei 3100RF addresses both functional and aesthetic needs in smoke detection.
