Large sensing chamber increases stability and alarm accuracy. Thermoptek is the smoke alarm technology of choice for UK Fire and Rescue Services. Two sensors provide heat readings, to enable early warning of fire. It provides an alternative to using separate ionisation and optical alarms; for detection of fast flaming and slow smouldering fires in a single alarm. Thermoptek technology combines the very latest in optical sensing with a thermal enhancement. It constantly monitors for temperature change, and if a sudden temperature rise is detected the sensitivity of the alarm is increased. This provides a much faster reaction to both fast flaming and slow smouldering fires in a single alarm. Unlike ionisation technology, Thermoptek technology has no storage or disposal issues relating to radioactive materials. Precision optical sensors reduce false alarms. Thermoptek Performance Fire Severity Earlier response time 54 Sec Thermoptek Smoke Alarm Reaction Optical Smoke Alarm Reaction 30 Sec 1 Min Time to reaction 6 90 Sec 2 Min Sensing Technology Heat Alarm Sensing Technology Class A1 detection for a faster response under all conditions. Thermistek technology constantly monitors for temperature change. If a temperature increase is detected, and predicted to exceed an alarm trigger threshold, the alarm will sound. Unique radiant heat dish reflects heat from a fire onto the thermistor, reducing the time to alarm and alerting you to the danger earlier.

Thermistek Performance Fire Severity Earlier response and smaller reaction window Thermistek Heat Alarm Reaction Conventional Heat Alarm Reaction 1 Min 2 Min 3 Min 4 Min Time to reaction 7 Wireless Technology Wi-Safe 2 Intelligent wireless communication with any other product with Wi-Safe 2 technology inside. Closed network Unique identity codes (16 million different combinations) are hard coded into the memory of the network upon interlinking so they will be retained, even if the mains is turned off and the battery discharges. Alarms cannot be triggered by wireless products such as doorbells, cordless phones etc. due to the Wi-Safe 2 encryption, and the EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) testing / compliance. Wi-Safe 2 will not be compatible with competitors products. Create a perfectly tailored system to suit the changing needs of the property or the tenants The radio frequency band of the Wi-Safe 2 is 868 MHz. The system can be adapted if the requirements for the individual change. Additional smoke, heat, CO and deaf alert accessories can be added or removed at anytime. Wi-Safe 2 provides flexible wireless solutions for both hardwired and battery systems. Up to 50 alarms can be interlinked for maximum coverage. Test and locate from anywhere in the home The alarm control unit can be added to any Wi-Safe 2 network. Wi-Safe 2 simplifies installation Wi-Safe 2 products can be linked together in a matter of seconds with a simple two step connection process. Eliminating the time and expense of channelling wiring around a building. Meshed network In a meshed network, each unit can communicate with any other alarm in the network (it does not have to be directly in range). Units are constantly transmitting and receiving a radio frequency signal. Any danger, reported by every alarm When an alarm detects smoke, heat or CO, all alarms and accessories in the network will sound. This means that you are alerted anywhere in the property. Each unit will make a differentiated sound pattern for either a smoke / heat or CO incident. 8 Sensing Technologies Explained Sensor Types Thermally Enhanced Optical Traditionally optical smoke alarm sensitivity can change with ambient temperature that is the sensitivity in winter will be different than the sensitivity in summer. Thermal enhancement removes this variance by making slow adjustment to the sensitivity settings dependent upon background temperature. Thermoptek technology combines the latest in optical sensing technology with a thermal enhancement system which provides the fastest reaction to all fire types in a single alarm. Ionisation Ionisation technology is generally more sensitive than optical technology at detecting small particles of smoke which tend to be produced in greater amounts by fast flaming fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning in a wastebasket or chip pan fires. Thermistek heat detection technology constantly monitors for temperature change. If a dangerous rate of rise in the temperature is detected, and predicted to exceed an alarm trigger threshold (54 to 65 degrees), the alarm will sound. This predictive quality provides a much quicker response to fast flaming fires. Heat alarms with Thermistek technology are approved to class A1. Electrochemical CO Sensing Thermistor Electrochemical technology is an accurate and proven method of sensing CO. Our patented sensor protects against leakage - the most common failure of other sensors. Alarms with Thermistor sensors will activate when the temperature reaches the pre-set range of 54°C to 70°C. All CO alarms are 100% tested and calibrated using carbon monoxide during the manufacturing process. Smart Silence Sleep Easy ‘Smart Silence’ technology allows the user to silence the alarm for up to 10 minutes in the event of a known false alarm. After 10 minutes the alarm shall return to full sensitivity. During these 10 minutes, if additional heat / smoke is detected the alarm silence will be overridden and the alarm will sound. A low battery ‘chirp’ can be silenced for a period of 8 hours by pressing the test button. After this period the audible chirp will start again. This process can be repeated for a maximum of 10 times. The alarm will still detect heat /smoke during this time, however the alarm must be replaced within 30 days. A chirp which indicates a fault cannot be silenced.
