Aico, a leader in domestic mains powered Fire and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detection, has developed an innovative product to solve a safety issue facing people in sheltered housing and other vulnerable people using Telecare/Warden Call Systems.
Such systems are commonplace in accommodation for vulnerable people, allowing them to live independently in a safe environment – but in most situations they are not connected with the Smoke and CO alarms in the property.
The new Ei414 Fire/CO Alarm Interface provides a dedicated connection between Aico Smoke and CO alarms and Telecare/Warden Call Systems, enabling an emergency signal to be transmitted directly to that system if fire or CO is detected.
The Ei414 interconnects Aico RadioLINK Smoke, Heat and CO alarms with most new and existing Telecare/Warden Call Systems. The connection can be made wirelessly with Radio Frequency (RF) signals using RF Universal Transmitters as part of the Telecare/Warden Call Systems, or via hard wiring between the two devices.
As the Ei414 is a RadioLINK device and links to Aico RadioLINK Smoke, Heat and CO alarms wirelessly, it has the advantages of a wireless interconnect alarm system, including less disruption during installation, increased tenant compliance, flexible coverage and reduced installation time as a result of RF signal, rather than hard wired, alarm interconnection.
