Innovation in multi-sensor alarms continues with new Aico range

With Aico striving to deliver products that align with its customers’ requirements, the Ei660i and Ei660iRF have been developed to fulfil the need for a battery-powered multi-sensor fire alarm within the company’s product range.

The products are a complementary addition to the multi-sensors within Aico’s mains-powered 3000 Series and include the same technologically advanced heat and optical smoke sensors to offer total fire protection, coupled with an increased resistance to false alarms.

Michael Wright, product development manager at Aico, commented: “The new Ei660i and Ei660iRF models continue the trend for innovation of multi-sensor alarms across our product range. The lithium battery-powered alarms complement our existing 3000 Series mains-powered, multi-sensor alarms and provide users with improved fire response and reduced risk of false alarms.”

Wright added: “We’re delighted to be able to launch the products as part of our new 600 Series and provide end users with our proven and award-winning multi-sensor technology across both mains and battery-powered alarms.”

Additional benefits

The Ei660i is a stand-alone device, while the Ei660iRF includes built-in RadioLINK+ technology, offering wireless interconnection with compatible Aico alarms via radio frequency.

These new products offer a range of additional benefits, including built-in dust compensation technology. The self-monitoring dust compensation mechanism allows the alarm to tolerate up to twice as much dust contamination than would be the case for a conventional optical alarm.

Further, the optical sensor chamber continually self-monitors minute changes in dust levels, automatically recalibrating the alarm’s trigger point when necessary in order to reduce false alarms.

Both the Ei660i and Ei660iRF also include Aico’s award-winning AudioLINK+ technology, making it simple to gain real-time data directly from the alarm head via a mobile app, which then allows for reporting on information such as activations, sensor status and system testing.
