The Firex 4618 Smoke Alarm is an ionization 120V AC smoke alarm with battery back-up for single or multiple station use. It includes a False Alarm Control feature which allows the user to quiet an unwanted alarm for up to 15 minutes. The 4618 has a front loading battery door 85 decibel horn test switch and dual purpose LED indicator- constant green power on LED confirms AC power is present and the flashing red displays alarm-battery status. Our unique PowerLink Tab is designed to allow the smoke alarm to be shipped with the battery already installed. It keeps the door from closing until installation which prevents the battery from draining prematurely. The installer simply removes the PowerLink Tab closes the door and tests the unit. This results in a faster installation time.
The latching LED feature clearly identifies the smoke alarm that initiated an alarm in an interconnected system with a constantly illuminated red LED. The LED will remain lit until the test button is depressed on that unit.
