Description

The Kidde 900-0216 uses breakthrough technology to offer a fast
response to real fires, including smoldering and fast-flaming, as well
as protect you from carbon monoxide and dramatically reduce the
chance of nuisance alarms. In addition, the Intelligent Alarm con­tains a voice warning that clearly states the present danger – smoke
or carbon monoxide – and announces “Fire! Fire!” or “Warning!
Carbon Monoxide!” The Intelligent Alarm combines the detection
capabilities of an ionization smoke sensor – which is more likely to
detect smaller, less visible fire particles, like those produced by flam­ing fires – with that of an electrochemical sensor, which is used to
detect CO. Since carbon monoxide is present in all fires, having both
detection chambers work together in one alarm is a breakthrough
in the fire safety industry. When either sensor notices a potential
hazard, it will communicate with the other. Depending on what is
detected, the alarm will adjust its smoke sensitivity in order to better
discriminate between a real hazard and a false one. This constant
communication enhances the alarm’s overall performance in all fires,
and significantly reduces the potential for a nuisance alarm.

Alarm Warnings

Fire: The red LED will flash and be accompanied by three long
alarm beeps followed by a verbal warning message “FIRE! FIRE!”.
The alarm will repeat pattern until smoke is eliminated.

Carbon Monoxide: Four short alarm beeps followed by a verbal
warning “WARNING! CARBON MONOXIDE!” This continues until
the unit is reset or the CO is eliminated.

Low Battery: One chirp followed by warning “LOW BATTERY”.
The red LED light will flash. This pattern will continue every minute
for the first hour. After the first hour the red LED light will flash
once every minute accompanied by the chirp sound. The “LOW
BATTERY” warning will only sound once every fifteen minutes.

*Based on accuracy claims of major manufacturers

Voice Hush Indication: “HUSH ACTIVATED” and “HUSH
CANCELLED” voice announcement.

Peak Level Memory: If the alarm had detected a CO level of
100ppm or higher, the unit will announce “CO PREVIOUSLY
DETECTED” to warn of the CO incident, when the Test/Reset
button is pressed.

Features and Benefits

•VoiceAlarm – Announces the hazard type detected thereby helping to
speed up the correct reaction to the hazard detected. Alarm announces
“Fire Fire” when a smoke or fire hazard is detected and announces
“Warning Carbon Monoxide” when a CO hazard is detected.

•CombinedCarbonMonoxideandSmokeAlarm – A single unit
can be installed where previously, two were needed. Reduces
installation time and helps to keep home décor attractive.

•Test/ResetButton – Tests alarm circuitry and triggers the voice
announcement.

•LEDs – Two LEDs are provided. Flashing green for normal operation
and flashing red for alarm condition.

•LowBatteryWarning – The unit warns of a low battery condition
by announcing “low battery” and by initiating an alarm chirp and
activating a flashing red LED.

•BatteryPowered – Provides protection even during power outages
when many fire and carbon monoxide incidents occur.

•BatterySafeguard – Ensures the unit
cannot be accidentally mounted
without batteries installed.

Battery Operated Combination
Carbon Monoxide, Fire & Smoke Alarm

Part # 900-0216
Model KN-COSM-XTR-B

Architectural and Engineering
Specifications

The combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm shall be Kidde
Model Number KN-COSM-XTR-B (part number 900-0216) or approved
equal. It shall be powered by 3 AA batteries. The unit shall incorporate
an ionization smoke sensor with nominal sensitivity of 0.97 %/ft. The
CO sensor shall be of a fuel cell design and provide accuracy of +/-20%
+ 15ppm. 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% related humidity.

The combination alarm can be installed on the surface of any wall or
ceiling following the UL/NFPA/Manufacturer’s recommended placement
guidelines. The alarm shall provide optional tamper resistance that deters
removal of the unit from the wall or ceiling.

The alarm shall include a test button that will electronically simulate
the presence of smoke and CO and cause the unit to go into both
modes of alarm. This sequence tests the unit’s electronics to ensure
proper operation.

The CO sensor will not alarm to levels of CO below 30 ppm and will
alarm in the following time range when exposed to the corresponding
levels of CO.
70 ppm CO Concentration 60 – 240 minutes
150 ppm CO Concentration 10 – 50 minutes
400 ppm CO Concentration 4 – 15 minutes

The combination alarm shall have two methods of warning for
danger: a piezoelectric horn that is rated at 85 decibels at 10 feet and
a voice warning that identifies the danger. For a CO incident, the horn
will sound in the repetitive manner -- four (4) fast beeps, a short pause,
four (4) fast beeps, a short pause. In between, the unit will announce
“Warning Carbon Monoxide!”. In a Smoke incident, the horn will sound
in the repetitive manner -- three (3) beeps, a pause, three (3) beeps, a
pause. In between, the unit will announce “Fire! Fire!”.

The unit shall also indicate a low battery warning utilizing each of
the following methods: a brief alarm chirp, the voice announcement
of “Low Battery!” and the red LED will flash once per minute. The unit
shall incorporate 2 LED’s. A green LED will flash when power is pres­ent. A red LED will flash once every 30-40 seconds to indicate the alarm
is operating properly and will flash once per second when the unit is
alarming and will remain so until the air is cleared.

The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of UL 2034,
UL217, NFPA72, (chapter 11 2002 edition) The State of California Fire
Marshall, NFPA101 (One and two family dwellings) Federal Housing
Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It shall also
include a 7-year manufacturer’s limited warranty.
