Description
The Kidde P3010CU is a 10-year, sealed battery, smoke and
carbon monoxide alarm with a voice warning system that features
photoelectric and electrochemical sensing technology with Smart
Hush feature. This combination alarm combines the detection
capabilities of a photoelectric sensor with that of an electrochemical
sensor, which is used to detect CO. 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
and significantly reduces the potential for a nuisance alarm.
The voice warning system announces “Fire”, or “Warning, Carbon
Monoxide” to help eliminate any confusion and clearly warn you
and your family of a smoke or carbon monoxide danger.
The sealed in lithium battery will power the unit for the entirety of
its 10 year life, eliminating the need for battery replacement and
worry about unauthorized battery removal. The alarm provides
continuous protection from smoke and carbon monoxide, even
during power outages.
The alarm will automatically activate when it is attached to the
mounting bracket; there are no pull-tabs, no switches, everything
is automatic. At the end of alarm life, the unit will chirp, indicating
the alarm is in need of replacement. The customer can use a simple
tool such as a screwdriver to deactivate the unit, stopping the chirp
and making it safe for disposal.
Leading authorities recommend that both ionization and
photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help ensure maximum
detection of the various types of fires that can occur within the
home. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles
(associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric
alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles
(associated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionization
alarms.

Combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm
Sealed Lithium Battery Power
Model P3010CU
Architectural and Engineering
Specifications
The combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm shall be
Kidde model number P3010CU or approved equal. It shall be
powered by a non-replaceable lithium battery with a 10-year life.
The lithium battery shall be sealed in the unit to prevent removal
and/or tampering. The unit shall incorporate a photoelectric
smoke sensor and an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor.
The CO sensor shall be of a fuel cell design and provide accuracy
of +/- 20% + 15 PPM. The temperature operating range shall be
between 40ºF and 100ºF (4ºC and 38ºC) and the humidity operating range shall be 10%-95% non-condensing relative humidity.
The alarm can be installed on the surface of any wall or ceiling
following the UL/Manufacturer’s approved placement guidelines.
The alarm shall incorporate an automatic activation feature that
will activate the unit as soon as it is attached to the mounting
bracket, no other steps are involved.
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 alarm shall include a piezoelectric horn that is rated at 85
decibels at 10 feet. For a CO incident, the horn will sound in
the repetitive manner – 4 quick beeps, voice message “Warning!
Carbon Monoxide”, 4 quick beeps. In a smoke incident, the
horn sounds 3 long beeps, voice message “Fire!”, 3 long beeps,
repeating. The red LED will flash in conjunction with the alarm
sound. See User Guide for details regarding voice warning for
low battery condition.
The unit shall indicate a low battery condition with a brief alarm
chirp every 60 seconds and LED flash once every 30 seconds. In
standby condition, the LED will flash every 60 seconds for the
first 10 minutes following power on or test, and once every 10
minutes thereafter. It will also flash every 10 seconds while in
Hush mode.
The smoke alarm shall include an End of Life Alert, where ten
years after initial power-up the unit shall chirp two times every
30 seconds to indicate the alarm needs to be replaced. The
End of Life indication can be silenced for 3 days at a time for
a maximum of 30 days. The unit shall have a deactivation
switch to disable it and make it safe for disposal.
The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of
UL217, UL 2034, NFPA 72. The State of California Fire
Marshall, NFPA 101 (One and two family dwellings), Federal
Housing Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development
(HUD). It shall also include a 10-year manufacturer’s limited
warranty.
