First Alert Dual Sensor Ionization Photoelectric Smoke Detector
Ionization technology smoke detectors are generally more sensitive than photoelectric technology smoke detectors at sensing small particles which tend to be produced in greater amounts by hot flaming fires that are consuming combustible materials rapidly.
First alert dual sensor ionization photoelectric smoke detector. The dual sensor smoke detector has both ionization and photoelectric technology inside. The first alert smoke and fire alarm comes equipped with two different sensors to provide an early warning. While all smoke alarms are designed to detect smoke different sensing technologies react differently to certain types of fires. First alert brk hardwire dual sensor smoke alarm review 1.
Smoke particles of varying sizes and number are produced in all fires. The first alert hardwire dual photoelectric and ionization sensor smoke alarm with battery backup is designed to provide peace of mind. Other popular technologies for smoke detectors are ionization alarms and dual sensor smoke detectors. Choosing between photoelectric ionization and dual sensing smoke alarms the first alert store understands the significance of selecting the appropriate first alert smoke alarm to safeguard families from the many dangers associated with the presence of smoke and fire.
This hardwired alarm with battery backup gets rave reviews for its performance and fewer false alarms than similar products. This alarm makes use of both ionization and photoelectric sensors to offer the earliest possible warning regardless of the type of fire. The ionization sensor is more sensitive to detecting flaming fires and the photoelectric sensor is more sensitive to detecting smoldering fires. First alert smoke detectors utilize differing technologies to achieve the very best result in offering steadfast protection.
The photoelectric and ionization sensors on this fire detector alert you to both smoldering and fast flaming fires offering comprehensive detection and early warning. The first alert brk 3120b smoke alarm is arguably the best dual photoelectric and ionization smoke alarm on the market. Ionization smoke alarms are best for detecting rapid flame fires while photoelectric smoke alarms protect against slower smoldering fires. Dual sensor technology is the preferred choice of fire service professionals for its ability to detect both flaming and smoldering fires.
The ionization sensor detects flaming fires such as grease fires or wastebasket fires and the photoelectric sensor detects smoldering fires such as when a lit cigarette ignites clothing or upholstery.
