Aico, the domestic mains powered Fire and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detection product company, has launched the new 3000 Series. These products detect Fire and CO and include, for the first time, a Multi-Sensor Heat and CO Alarm, providing whole property coverage the manufacturer reports.
Aico Managing Director Neal Hooper says: “The 3000 Series represents one of the most significant advances of the Aico product range in recent years. It’s the coming together of the very latest alarm technologies with Aico’s reputation for unbeatable reliability and quality. We refer to the 3000 Series as having ‘intelligent simplicity’ – we’ve built intelligence in to every alarm whilst ensuring simplicity for every install.”
In the 3000 Series, the Ei3028 Multi-Sensor Heat and CO Alarm can protect residents from fire and CO, given high heat sources from cooking appliances posing a potential fire hazard and gas fuelled appliances representing a potential source of CO. The 3000 Series incorporates a mains powered Multi-Sensor Fire Alarm and single sensor Optical, Heat and CO Alarms. All alarms in the Series use the same base (a first for Aico CO Alarms) and feature intelligent sensors, AudioLINK data extraction and SmartLINK wireless interconnection and whole system data monitoring capability.
Aico’s AudioLINK data extraction technology enables real time alarm data (such as number of times tested and details of alarm activations) to be extracted to a smartphone or tablet via an app which creates an alarm status report. It identifies any issues offering tenant safety and reducing the cost of return visits to a property. AudioLINK also aids compliance for landlords, providing proof that alarms are working at the start of a new tenancy and with annual gas safety checks.
A Radio Frequency (RF) technology, SmartLINK enables alarms and system accessories to be interconnected using RF signals rather than hard wiring. Aico adds that it’s developing SmartLINK to enable a Gateway and Portal based system with real-time notifications.
All alarms in the 3000 Series are backwards compatible with Aico products, including the Ei450 Alarm Controller and Ei414 Fire/CO Alarm Interface. Visit www.aico.co.uk/3000series.
