Aico EI261ENRC EI260 Series Carbon Monoxide Alarm c/w Lithium Battery

Product Information

Insert a flat headed screwdriver into the removal slot of the alarm. This is marked with an arrow. Make sure you keep the screwdriver horizontal (i.e. parallel to the ceiling). Never ignore a beeping alarm, as it is a warning sign of either a danger in the home or that an alarm needs maintenance. Turn the mains power to the alarms off in the property and ensure the green indicator light on the alarm is off. Please note: This product is now obsolete, the recommended replacement is the Aico Ei3018 230v 3000 Series Carbon Monoxide Alarm.

Battery Powered Carbon Monoxide Alarms – The Ei208 and Ei208W alarms contain a sealed in 10-year life lithium cell and have built-in AudioLINK data extraction technology. The Ei208 is a standalone unit, whilst the Ei208W is upgradeable to RadioLINK+ with a Ei200MRF module. Also available in this range is the Ei208WRF with built-in RadioLINK+. This step by step guide will show you how to replace and remove the existing alarm heads in a property. If you have an easi-fit base fitted, all you need to do is replace the alarm as there is no need to remove or re-wire the base. There is likely to be Carbon Monoxide present. Turn off any gas appliances, open windows and doors and leave the property. The memory feature allows an Alarm that has previously activated to be easily identified (as the red LED will continue to flash for 24hrs after the event or afterwards when you press the Test button). The Ei261ENRC may operate as a standalone Alarm or may be interconnected via hardwire to communicate with compatible Ei Electronics Alarms and accessories. Up to 12 devices can be interconnected.

Manual Test/Hush button: tests the alarm (when pressed and held) and silences false alarms (when pressed and released). This will silence the unit for 4 minutes before resetting. It will only silence once until the gas clears.

The 3000, Ei2110e and 160e Series alarms all use modules to connect alarms with each other wirelessly using radio frequency signals. A remote relay option is available which has multiple uses, including switching a gas solenoid shut off valve. Now test the alarm by pressing and holding the test button on the front of the unit. The unit should make an alarm sound and also activate any other alarms in the property.
