Aico Heat Alarm Ei144RC - Mains Powered with 9V Battery Back-up

Product Information

Remove the alarm from its base and press the test button to drain the residual charge. Does the beeping stop? If not, you have a different alarm in the room that is beeping, e.g. a CO alarm with a low battery Interconnection: Up to 12 units can be interconnected via a hardwired or wireless system (using optional Ei168RC mounting plate) Beeping or chirping is normally due to low battery power in the alarm. This beeping most commonly starts at night due to the drop in temperature causing a decrease in battery power. The Alarm automatically monitors the battery every 40 seconds. If it is depleted it will give a short beep every 40 seconds.

One of the Ei168 radio bases flashes amber light every 10 seconds. All other bases in the group are fine. Solution In an interlinked system when one unit detects smoke, all alarms sound. To silence the alarms in case of a false alarm, press the hush button on the unit that has detected the smoke. This will silence all interlinked alarms.

Interruptions of the mains power can be due to several reasons, including incorrect wiring (e.g. if the power supply comes from the lighting system and the alarm is incorrectly wired to the switched part of the circuit or when neutral/earth wiring are reversed), tripped fuses/circuit breakers, loose wires and general power failure. Electrical spikes can also cause false alarms or damage the smoke alarms. Smoke detector is off the ceiling and the battery has been removed but the beeping continues

The Ei144RC can be interconnected via hardwire to communicate with compatible Ei Alarms and accessories. Up to 12 devices can be interconnected.
