Technical information
- Type of alarm : CAVIUS smoke alarm is a photo electric smoke alarm.
- Alarm signal: Fire alarm condition is indicated by a series of repeated tones. The minimum sound level is 85 dB at 3 meters.
Battery
Powered by a non-replaceable 3V CR123 Lithium battery with 10-year life (included).
IMPORTANT:
Do not replace the battery. Replace the product if the battery fails.
Low battery indicator: A short “beep” will sound and LED flash every 48
seconds when the battery is near the end of life. In this stage it will
continue for a minimum 30 days.
It is recommended to change the smoke alarm after 10 years, or if the alarm
has suffered any damage. The alarm is not active unless it is inserted in the
mounting base.
Always check the alarm after inserting in the mounting base (allow a few
seconds before testing).
Placement:
The smoke alarm is designed for placement on a ceiling or wall. The smoke alarm should be a minimum of 50 cm from the wall, with a minimum of one smoke alarm per floor and a maximum distance between smoke alarms of 10 meters.
Alarm signal:
The alarm has a visual and acoustic alert tone. In the passive state, the LED will flash every 48 seconds to indicate normal function. In an alarming state the LED will flash and the alarm will emit a sweeping sound pattern design to alert occupants.
Hush function:
In case of unintentional alarm condition or false alarms, press the top button. This will hush the alarm for 10 minutes, after which time it will automatically resume its normal alarm function.
Maintenance
The smoke alarm should be vacuum cleaned once per quarter, and it can be wiped
with a damp cloth. (Do not open the alarm).
Test the alarm at least once per quarter by pushing the test button. The alarm
will self test and give a loud alarm tone.
The best places to mount the alarm:
- Place an alarm between possible fire sources and bed-rooms as minimum,
- Alarms on each floor and in hallways and stairways.
- Alarms in each room such as bed rooms and living rooms.
Additional alarms increase the security.
Installation of alarm
- Detach the alarm from the mounting base by twisting counter clockwise. Use the mounting base to mark the screw holes on the ceiling. Use the enclosed screws and plugs to install the mounting base. Once the mounting base is installed on ceiling or wall, attach the alarm by twisting clockwise.
