Product Description

The Ei100TYC is an Ionisation Smoke Alarm that runs
on a 9V lithium 10 year battery (supplied with the alarm).

Ionisation smoke alarms operate on the principle that
electrical current flowing between electrodes in an
ionization chamber is reduced when smoke particles
enter.

Ionisation technology gives a rapid response to fast
flaming fires

The Ei100TYC is easily installed and comes supplied
with all necessary screw fixings.

The interconnect feature allows the alarm to be
connected with up to 12 other similar alarms.

Operation

The smoke detector will activate the built in sounder

upon sensing smoke particles

The smoke detector will automatically reset itself

and silence the sounder when smoke particles are
no longer present in the sensing chamber

The built in sounder will provide a minimum sound

output of 85dB at 3m

The “Hush/Test” button will perform a self test and

sound the horn (it may take up to 10 seconds)

The “Hush/Test” button will silence nuisance alarms
Interconnect up to 12 other alarms (9V ionisation,

optical or heat) when one senses smoke, all alarm.
Helps ensure warning will be heard throughout the
house

The smoke detector will emit a beep every 40

seconds to indicate that the battery back up is
depleted and that the alarm should be removed and
replaced with a new one (the batteries are not
replaceable in the Ei100TYC)

Model Ei100TYC Ionisation

Installation & Placement

Alarms should be placed in accordance with the general guidelines shown in
the diagram above. These recommendations are based on the problem of

areas of “dead air” close to corners of rooms and apexes of ceilings, which

could result in the prevention of smoke reaching the smoke detector
Please consult the Instruction Leaflet supplied with the Ei100TYC for detailed

instructions as to how to correctly install and position the smoke detector

Important Precaution:

Do not install the actual smoke/heat
alarm itself in new or renovated
buildings until all work is completed
(including floor coverings) and the
building has been fully cleaned.
(Excessive dust and debris from
building work can contaminate the
smoke chamber and cause
problems, and it will also invalidate
the guarantee). If it must be
installed, cover it completely,
particularly around the edges, with
a dust cover (eg. a plastic bag),
until all cleaning is finished..
