SA-61
Wireless Smoke Detector                                                                                                 September 2012
Installation Manual

1. Introduction
The SA-61 is a battery-operated Wireless Smoke Detector.                                                      Figure 1: SA-61
  It is available in two frequencies: 433.92 MHz or 868.35 MHz.
The smoke sensor unit can easily be plugged into or detached from the
wireless base unit (AS-60) for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
A mechanical key on the sensor is designed to avoid mismatching or
incorrect installation of the sensor and base. The sensor chamber is
engineered to sense smoke from a wide range of combustion sources.
The chamber is well protected from insects and dust contamination.
A LED indicator on the sensor unit shows the operating status and
Alarm mode, while an RF LED is located in the base unit and indicates
RF transmissions, such as alarms and tamper.
The SA-61 smoke detector has a low profile, as well as a professional
and trendy appearance.
