BRK 100S Smoke Alarm For Hearing Impaired AC Powered

This is a single and/or multiple station smoke alarm specifically designed for residential and institutional applications including sleeping rooms of hospitals, hotels, motels, dormitories, and other multifamily dwellings as defined in standard NFPA 101. Model 100S has been fully tested and complies with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Single and Multiple Station Smoke Alarms UL217, Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Signaling Devices for the Hearing Impaired UL1971, CSFM, NFPA 72, and NFPA 101 and with model building codes published by ICBO, SBCCI, BOCA, and CABO.

Model 100S is designed to give reliable early warning of fire by providing a visual and audible alarm when the unit senses smoke from fire. The 177 candela Xenon strobe meets UL 1971 requirements and flashes an average of 60-70 times a minute. The unit also features an 85dB piezoelectric horn. The 100S operates on 120V AC and features a red LED that signals the unit is receiving power. The unit features an Ionization sensing chamber which operates on the ionization principle, a generally more effective method of detecting smoke from fast flaming fires. The sensing chamber consists of two

electrically charged plates and a source of Americium 241 to ionize the air molecules in the space between the plates. As particles of combustion enter the ionization chamber, they collide and combine with ionized air molecules reducing the number of ionized air particles resulting in a decrease in current between the two plates. Electronic circuitry monitors the change in current. When smoke inside the chamber reaches a level of 1.14%/ft, the unit triggers an audible alarm. A manual test feature checks all detector functions by stimulating the chamber to simulate a 1.14%/ft smoke condition, causing the unit to alarm.

Model 100S is designed for both single and multiple station applications. When interconnected in series, the smoke alarm sensing smoke sends a signal to all other units to sound an audible alarm. The unit that triggers the alarm identifies itself by turning its red LED power indicator off. Red LED indicators remain on with all other interconnected units. A maximum of 18 multiple station alarms (smoke alarms and heat detectors) can be interconnected (refer to NFPA 72 and/or local building codes for further information on interconnection). Model 100S was designed with quick and easy installation in mind. Designed to cover most drywall cut-outs, the specially designed mounting bracket mounts on any junction box up to 4” octagonal and does not require screw removal. A foam gasket is provided to protect the sensing chamber from drafts in the electrical box. Connection to AC power is made with a “Quick-Connect” wiring harness.

Features include: “Quick-Connect” Wiring Harness Provides quick and easy connection to AC Power. Fits inside any standard electrical junction box. Interconnectable Up To 18 Multiple Station Alarms Unit that detects smoke identifies itself and sends alarm signal to other units connected in series. Screened Ionization Sensing Chamber Generally more effective at detecting fast flaming fires. Prevents insects from entering sensing chamber reducing unwanted alarms. Red LED Alarm Indicator Confirms unit is receiving AC Power. Turns off on unit that initiates an alarm. 85dB Piezoelectric Alarm Horn Provides audible notification of fire. Reminds user to replace battery. Bright Xenon Strobe Provides visible notification of fire. Meets requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and UL 1971 - Signaling Devices for the hearing impaired. Manual Test Button Tests all detector functions.
