Product Description
Kidde HARDWIRE IONIZATION SMOKE ALARMS operate as single units or interconnected with up to 12 Kidde smoke alarms on one wiring system. Ten-year limited warranty. 9V batteries included with AC/DC units.
The Kidde i12080 is an AC/DC powered, ionization smoke alarm that operates on a 120V power source with 9V battery backup. This alarm uses ionization sensing technology. 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 i12080 includes a quick connect wiring harness for easy installation. The safety light illuminates to guide you to safety. This smoke alarm is available in a 6-piece cut case with tray for easy display. This unit is a UL Listed product with a 10-year limited warranty.

All wiring shall be in accordance with articles 210 and 300.3(B) of the US National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA 70 and NFPA 72. The multiple station interconnect wiring must be in the same raceway as the AC power wiring. In addition the resistance if the interconnect wiring shall be a maximum of 10 ohms. Make certain all alarms are wired to a single, continuous (non-switched) powerline, which is not protected by a ground fault interrupter. A maximum of 1000 ft.of wire can be used in the interconnect system. Use standard UL listed household wire as required by code.
