Aico provides enhanced alarm control

Aico has launched two alarm control switches for its Radiolink Fire and Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms.

With best practice, supporting larger alarm systems comprising three, four or more smoke and heat alarms interconnected, occasionally also with CO alarms, improved control functions are vital to ensure the system is simple for residents to use.

Aico's Alarm Control Switches are available in two variants; one for use with smoke and heat alarms and one for combined smoke, heat and CO alarm systems.

Both Control Switches have a number of extra features to allow the residents extra control of their alarms.

The Locate feature allows the exact alarm that has triggered the system to be identified when all are sounding.

The Test feature can be used to test the entire systems without having to reach up to the alarms.

The Silence feature will control any false alarms.

In addition to the features above, the combined smoke, heat and CO Alarm Control Switch has two indicator lights that flash to immediately identify if the alarm has been caused by fire or CO.

Both Alarm Control Switches are powered by a built-in 10 year lithium battery and communicate with the alarms using radio frequency signals so there is no wiring whatsoever.

This allows the switches to be installed with minimum expense and disruption.
