Kidde Dual Sensor Battery Operated Smoke Alarm
Pi9010

The Kidde PI9010 is a 9V battery powered smoke alarm. This smoke alarm functions as a single unit smoke alarm and features Hush®, allowing you to quickly silence nuisance alarms. The PI9010 is easy to install, no wiring is required. This smoke alarm combines both photoelectric and ionization sensors. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help insure maximum detection of the various types of fire that can occur within the home.

The Kidde PI9010, 9V battery powered smoke alarms provides continuous protection against smoke and fire hazards even during power outages. The PI9010 also includes flashing LEDs to signal the alarm is functioning properly, a low battery warning and a loud 85dB alarm. The Kidde PI9010 is UL listed and offers a 10-year limited warranty.

Technical Specifications

Architectural and Engineering Specifications

The smoke alarm shall be Kidde Model PI9010 or approved equal. It shall be powered by a 9V battery. The unit shall incorporate both an ionization smoke sensor and a photoelectric smoke sensor with a nominal alarm sensitivity of 0.72-3.45%/ft. The temperature operating range shall be between 40˚F and 100˚F (4˚C and 38˚C) and the humidity operating range shall be up to 85% relative humidity. The alarm can be installed on the surface of any wall or ceiling following the UL/NFPA/Manufacturer’s recommended placement guidelines. The unit shall provide optional tamper resistance that deters removal of the unit from the wall or ceiling. The alarm shall include a test button that will electronically simulate the presence of smoke and cause the unit to go into alarm. This sequence tests the unit’s electronics, battery and horn to ensure proper operation. The unit shall include a piezoelectric horn that is rated at 85 decibels at 10 feet. In a smoke incident, the horn will sound in the repetitive manner – three (3) beeps, a pause, three (3) beeps, a pause. The unit shall include the Hush® feature that silences the unit. By pressing the Hush® button, it will desensitize the unit for approximately 10 minutes if a nuisance condition occurs. The red LED will flash every 10 seconds during this time and will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The Hush® feature shall be overridden and the unit will alarm if the smoke is too dense. The unit shall also include a low battery warning utilizing a brief alarm chirp every 30-40 seconds for a minimum of seven (7) days. The alarm will utilize a red LED that shall flash once every 30-40 seconds to indicate the alarm is receiving power. The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of UL217, NFPA72, (chapter 11, 2002 edition) The State of California Fire Marshall, NFPA101 (One and two family dwellings) Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It shall also include a 10-year manufacturer’s limited warranty.
