![]() Peak Level Memory - Announces “CARBON MONOXIDE PREVIOUSLY DETECTED” if alarm has detected a CO level of 100ppm or higher since it was last reset. Works with existing smoke and combination smoke and CO mounting brackets. Smart Interconnect™- Interconnects up to 24 Kidde devices (of which 18 can be initiating).īattery Backup (2-AA batteries included) - Provides protection during power outages.įront Loading Battery Door - Replace the backup batteries without disconnecting from mounting bracketīattery Lockout System - The battery door will not close unless the batteries are properly installed.Īlarm Tamper Resist - Helps deter from tampering and theft.Īdjustable Mounting Bracket - Makes installation fast and easy. If the alarm had detected a CO level of 100ppm or higher when the Test/Reset button is pressed, the unit will announce “CARBON MONOXIDE PREVIOUSLY DETECTED” to warn of the CO incident. “HUSH MODE ACTIVATED” and “HUSH MODE CANCELLED” voice announcement. Under battery power, the “LOW BATTERY” voice only occurs once every 15 minutes. This pattern will continue every minute for at least seven days. One chirp followed by warning “LOW BATTERY.” The red LED light will flash. The alarm pattern will repeat until smoke is eliminated.įour short alarm beeps followed by a verbal warning “WARNING! CARBON MONOXIDE!” This continues until the unit is reset or the CO is eliminated. The red LED will flash and be accompanied by three long alarm beeps followed by a verbal warning message “FIRE!”. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. 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. This constant communication enhances the alarm’s overall performance in all fires, and significantly reduces the potential for a nuisance alarm. 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. When either sensor notices a potential hazard, it will communicate with the other. 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. The Intelligent sensor technology 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. The Kidde KN-COSM-IBA 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. ![]() ![]() Provides protection from two hazards – fire and CO – in one unit.
