1. Entwodiksyon
The Kidde P3010CU is a combination smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarm designed to provide early warning of both smoke and CO hazards. This unit integrates photoelectric sensing technology for detecting visible fire particles, typically associated with smoldering fires, and an electrochemical sensor for detecting carbon monoxide gas. Powered by a 10-year sealed lithium battery, this alarm eliminates the need for battery replacement throughout its operational life and ensures continuous protection even during power failures.
When a hazard is detected, the alarm sounds a loud 85-decibel alert and provides clear voice announcements such as "Fire! Fire!" for smoke or fire events, and "Warning! Carbon Monoxide!" for CO detection. An end-of-life announcement, "Replace Alarm!", indicates when the unit has reached the end of its operational lifespan. The integrated Smart-Hush button allows for temporary silencing of nuisance alarms, such as those caused by routine cooking or shower steam.
