120VAC Ionization Smoke Alarm

120VAC Ionization Smoke Alarm

Architectural and Engineering Specifications

The smoke alarm shall be Kidde Model 1276E or approved equal. It shall be powered by a 120VAC, 60Hz source along with a 9V battery backup. The unit shall incorporate an ionization sensor with nominal sensitivity of 0.99%/ft. The temperature operating range shall be between 40°F and 100°F (4°C and 38°C) and the humidity operating range shall be 5% - 95% relative humidity.

The smoke alarm can be installed on any standard single gang electrical box, up to a 4” octagon junction box. The electrical connection (to the alarm) shall be made with a plug-in connector. A maximum of 24 Kidde devices can be interconnected in a multiple station arrangement. The inter- connect system must not exceed the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) limit of 18 initiating devices, of which 12 can be smoke alarms. With 18 initiating devices (Smoke, heat, CO, etc), interconnected, it is still possible to interconnect 6 strobe lights and/or relay modules. The alarm shall provide optional tamper resistance that deters removal of the unit from the wall or ceiling and locks the battery door closed. No additional pieces shall be required to activate this feature.

The alarm shall include an easy access battery compartment that is opened and closed by pressing on the battery door. The 9V battery carrier will ensure proper battery backup protection by not allowing the battery door to close if the battery is placed in the unit incorrectly or if a battery is not present. The unit shall also provide an optional tamper resistant switch that will prevent the battery door from being opened.

The unit shall include a piezoelectric horn that is rated at 85 decibels at 10 feet. The unit shall include the Hush feature that silences the unit for approximately 7 minutes if a nuisance condition occurs. The alarm will chirp every 30 - 40 seconds while in hush mode and will automatically reset.

The unit shall incorporate 2 LED’s. A green LED will be constantly “ON” when AC power is present and will flash until reset (alarm memory) to indi- cate which alarm was the originating alarm at the last incident. Pressing the test button will reset the alarm memory condition. A red LED will flash once every 30-40 seconds to indicate the alarm is operating properly and will flash once per every 1.5 seconds when the unit is alarming and will remain so until the air is cleared.

The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of UL217, NFPA72, and (chapter 11 2002 edition) The State of California Fire Marshall, NFPA101 (0ne and two family dwellings), Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Unit Number 1276E

Installation of Smoke Alarm

The smoke alarm should be installed to comply with all local codes having jurisdic- tion in your area, Article 760 of the National Electric Code, and NFPA 72. Make certain all alarms are wired to a single, continuous (non-switched) power line, which is not protected by a ground fault interrupter. A maximum of 1000 ft. of wire can be used in the interconnect system. Use standard UL listed household wire (18 gauge or larger as required by local codes).
