Some devices recommended by Aico for the inter-connecting and functioning of the fire alarm systems…
The Aico fire alarm or smoke alarm devices and systems provide a cost effective, powerful and highly flexible system of detecting the fire or smoke in a room, flat or house — both for the specifier and for the contractor. Aico’s truly comprehensive and innovative product range offers specifiers the ability to build a cost effective, powerful and highly flexible larger system where additional control and warning devices are required. You can choose from either RadioLINK wireless interconnect(devices) or traditional hardwired technology, with the unique Remote Control functionality. Now, it is possible to custom design and build the optimum system of fire detection, smoke detection, CO detection or heat detection.
There are many options for both the specifier and the installer. For the properties where a simple system is required, this can be achieved using either RadioLINK RF or hardwired technology. Where there is a need for a more comprehensive system, just choose the particular control and/or signalling devices that you need and install the system that meets your requirements. Below are a list of
- the hard-wired system devices: Aico MCP401RC(manual call point), Ei1529RC(remote control switch), Ei159(alarm locator switch), Ei128R(relay base), Ei128RBU(relay base) and Ei128COV(alarm cover).
- the ancillary devices: Aico SAB300 (Xenon beacon/strobe), SABV4 (high intensity xenon beacon/strobe), Ei167RC(remote sounder), Y03(remote sounder) and MDH230(magnetic door holder).
- RadioLINK system devices: Aico Ei168RC (alarm base), Ei407(manual call point), Ei408(switched input module), Ei411H(remote control switch), Ei420(repeater and CO alarm interface) and Ei428(remote relay module).
- that can be used in conjunction with the Aico Ei140, Aico Ei160RC, the Aico CO detectors or the multi-sensor Aico alarms — to obtain the best system that you need. More about Aico Solutions…
