Featuring state-of-the-art technology that provides you and your
family with an early warning of household fire, the First Alert
SA720CN Photoelectric Sensor Smoke Alarm with Escape Light is an
effective device designed to be the first line of defense in your
household's fire-safety plan. This UL-listed alarm detects the
presence of smoke and fire, while also providing a source of
light to help guide you safely outside.
Smoke Alarms Save Lives
Fire is a serious threat to every household; it can strike
anywhere, any time. The frightening truth is that in 2005, there
were nearly 381,000 home fires in the U.S., resulting in over
16,000 casualties. Thankfully, smoke alarms like the SA720CN help
to reduce the risk of death in a household fire by up to 50
percent. The more smoke alarms you have installed in your home,
the higher the chance you'll be alerted to a fire in time to
escape.Smoke/Fire Detection and Escape Light Get You to Safety
The SA720CN smoke alarm alerts you to smoke and fire with a loud
85-decibel alarm. An escape light located right on the unit
activates with the alarm and helps you see the path to safety.
Many mistakenly believe that fires burn bright enough to
sufficiently illuminate enclosed areas. In truth, fires often
burn very dark, making it difficult for you to see a clear path
out of harm's way. That's why the escape light is so vital; it
provides the necessary illumination you need to get yourself and
your family outside as quickly as possible.
Innovative Photoelectric Sensing Technology Detects Even Slow,
Smoldering Fires
The SA720CN alarm uses photoelectric sensing technology, which is
generally more sensitive than commonly used ionization
technology, to detect large smoke particles. Large smoke
particles tend to be produced in greater as by slow-to-burn
fires (often caused by s burning in couches or bedding),
which may smolder for hours before bursting into flame.
An added bonus, photoelectric sensing technology reduces false
alarms like those caused by cooking smoke and shower steam.
As easy to operate as it is effective, the SA720CN boasts
patented OptiPath technology, which provides 360-degrees of
direct access to the smoke sensor. Additionally, a mute button
quickly silences false alarms for up to 15 minutes and also
doubles as an alarm test button.
Advanced Features Test, Protect, and Monitor Battery Power
Because smoke alarms are only as effective as their batteries,
the SA720CN comes equipped with features that protect its battery
(included) and make it clear when the battery needs replaced.
First, an easy-access side battery drawer makes it a snap to
change the battery without removing the alarm from the wall or
ceiling. A blinking power indicator confirms that the unit is
receiving power, and an alarm will chirp once per minute when the
battery needs to be replaced.
Additionally, a battery-guard drawer resists closing unless the
battery is inside, and an optional theft-prevention lock secures
the alarm when activated, so that the battery and/or alarm cannot
be removed without proper tools, preventing children or others
from compromising the alarm's ability to detect smoke and fire.
The SA720CN comes with a 10-year limited warranty.
