Battery Smoke Detector

A new 900 Series photoelectric-type home smoke detector from Gentex Corp. offers the convenience and reliability of a 9-volt alkaline battery.

Provided for single station operation, with tandem interconnection up to 20 units, I l7 " thermal and RF driver options the detectors utilize a pulsing infrared LED light source and photodiode sensor operating on the light scatter principle. Smoke entering the sensing chamber increases the LED's pulse rate 8 times faster than normal. Once the sensor has confirmed smoke for two consecutive pulses, it triggers the solid state 85 dB piezo horn. This verification method. combined with a 5 to I signal-to-noise ratio, reduces or eliminates the possibility of nuisance alarms.

A functional test knob simulates an actual 20/o smoke condition inside the sensing chamber which causes the unit's horn to sound. Each detector is fully insect screened and comes with convenient twist lock mounting. The Series is UL 217 listed.
