  2. Kidde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidde

    Kidde (/ ˈ k ɪ d ə / [2]) is an American multinational company that manufactures and distributes fire detection and suppression equipment, as well as smoke and CO alarm units. Kidde is one of America's largest manufacturers of smoke alarms [3] [4] and fire safety products. [5]

  3. Fire alarm system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_alarm_system

    Fire alarm systems are required in most commercial buildings. They may include smoke detectors, heat detectors, and manual fire alarm activation devices (pull stations). All components of a fire alarm system are connected to a fire alarm control panel. Fire alarm control panels are usually found in an electrical or panel room.

  4. First Alert - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Alert

    On September 4, 1992, BRK recalled all hardwired smoke alarms under the series 1839I and 2839I due to testing programs determining that corrosion could form on the alarm horn's electrical contacts, causing the piezo to fail to make any noise. [6] In May 2006, First Alert combination smoke alarms were recalled due to draining batteries rapidly. [7]

  5. Smoke detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_detector

    Smoke detector mounted on a ceiling. A smoke detector is a device that senses smoke, typically as an indicator of fire.Smoke detectors/alarms are usually housed in plastic enclosures, typically shaped like a disk about 125 millimetres (5 in) in diameter and 25 millimetres (1 in) thick, but shape and size vary.

  6. Aspirating smoke detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspirating_smoke_detector

    An aspirating smoke detector (ASD) is a system used in active fire protection, consisting of a central detection unit which draws air through a network of pipes to detect smoke. [1] The sampling chamber is based on a nephelometer that detects the presence of smoke particles suspended in air by detecting the light scattered by them in the chamber.

  7. Carbon monoxide detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monoxide_detector

    A Kidde plug-in carbon monoxide detector. A carbon monoxide detector or CO detector is a device that detects the presence of the carbon monoxide (CO) gas to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. In the late 1990s, Underwriters Laboratories changed the definition of a single station CO detector with a sound device to carbon monoxide (CO) alarm.

  8. Optical beam smoke detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_beam_smoke_detector

    An optical beam smoke detector is a device that uses a projected beam of light to detect smoke across large areas, [1] typically as an indicator of fire. [2] They are used to detect fires in buildings where standard point smoke detectors would either be uneconomical [ 3 ] or restricted for use by the height of the building.

  9. Manual fire alarm activation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_fire_alarm_activation

    Manual fire alarm activation requires human intervention, as distinct from automatic fire alarm activation such as that provided through the use of heat detectors and smoke detectors. It is, however, possible for call points/pull stations to be used in conjunction with automatic detection as part of the overall fire detection and alarm system .
