INTRODUCTION

This manual is for use with models PS-101 (white) and SPS-101 (silver) Plug-in Smoke Alarms. Note, that for information

purposes, the PS-101 only has been used.

Congratulations, you've made a wise investment in an innovative product and your personal safety. The FireAngel plug in smoke

alarm is the first in a new generation of domestic life safety products from Sprue Aegis, which combines the latest technology

and innovative design to provide an aesthetically pleasing and effective contribution to your fire safety.

The FireAngel range of products is constantly being improved and expanded. Please visit www.fireangel.co.uk to find out about

the latest additions to our product range and futher technical information.

This user manual contains important information regarding the operation of your FireAngel Smoke Alarm. If you are installing

this smoke alarm for use by someone else, you must leave this manual (or a copy of it) with the end user.

SENSOR TECHNOLOGY

Your FireAngel Plug-In Smoke Alarm uses an ionisation type sensor to detect the presence of smoke. Ionisation type smoke

alarms are generally more effective at detecting fast, flaming fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread fire

quickly. To increase the level of protection you should also install photoelectric type smoke alarms that are more effective at

detecting slow burning fires, which smoulder for hours before bursting into flames.

For maximum protection, use both types of smoke alarm on each level of your home

FIREANGEL APPLICATION AND POSITIONING

The minimum recommended application is one FireAngel to cover each floor and/or escape routes from individual sleeping areas.

For comprehensive coverage we recommend one per room with the exception of bathrooms, shower-rooms and kitchens. The

moist environments in bathrooms and shower-rooms are not suitable for Smoke Alarms and kitchens should be protected with

self-contained Heat Alarms, as the combustion particles from cooking in kitchens will result in false alarms if Smoke Alarms are

used.

We recommend that rooms where electrical appliances are in continuous operation and bedrooms in which smokers sleep have

individual Smoke Alarms.

To avoid false alarms, Smoke Alarms should not be located in:

•Areas where combustion particles may be present such as garages.

•In areas where air flows may carry combustion particles. To avoid false alarms position the alarm as far away as possible

from sources of combustion, in well-ventilated areas.

•In damp or very humid areas such as near shower or bath rooms, where the moisture in the air may condense in the

chamber causing fine droplets which can cause false alarms.

•In areas where excessive dust or dirt could contaminate the

sensing chamber, making it over sensitive or impairing the

ingress of smoke.

•In areas where the ambient room temperature is not

controlled and may regularly drift below 40°F (4°C) or above

100°F (38°C) e.g. unheated buildings, open loft spaces.

•In 'dead air' spaces, see diagram for clarification.

WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS OF MY SMOKE ALARM?

Your FireAngel is designed to alert you by sounding an alarm when it senses smoke, i.e. it can only sense smoke and alert you if

smoke reaches it! If a fire develops in an area remote from the location of the FireAngel such as another room or another floor,

smoke may not reach the FireAngel in sufficient time or quantity to sense and alert you to the danger. We recommend that as a

minimum you install a FireAngel on every floor of your property and additional units as required to cover all escape routes from

sleeping areas.

The FireAngel requires an electrical supply to recharge its integral battery. If the mains electrical supply fails or is removed the

unit will continue to operate on its fully charged battery supply for 60 days. The FireAngel will advise you of a low battery

condition by emitting an audible 'chirp' once per minute, when this occurs you must restore the mains supply to the unit within

8 hours to maintain operation. Following restoration of the mains supply the FireAngel batteries will recharge to full capacity

from a low battery alarm condition after 8 hours. You can continue to charge beyond 8 hours however.

Smoke Alarms are designed to alert you with an audible alarm at a distance specified within the relevant British and European

Standards. Closed doors, walls and high ambient noise levels will reduce this distance. Temporary or permanently impaired

hearing may result in the alarm not being heard. Test and check that you can hear the alarm in all circumstances. If in doubt

install additional smoke alarms as required, which should be interconnected if possible.

The FireAngel employs the latest technology and is third party tested as being compliant with all the relevant British and

European Standards. However, as with any electronic product it may fail and may not sense all types of fire within sufficient time

to alert you of the danger and provide adequate time for your escape.

Your FireAngel is only suitable for use in domestic/residential applications as covered in this manual. It is not suitable for

commercial or industrial applications. It is designed to sense smoke and alert you. It will not sense carbon monoxide, flames,

heat or gas.

The FireAngel has a limited life of 10 years and should not be considered as a substitute for life or property insurance.

1. Remove Shipping Disablement Ribbon

Warning

Your FireAngel has been shipped in a disabled state. You must completely remove the shipping disablement ribbon

before use. Failure to remove the ribbon will render the FireAngel inoperative in the event of a fire emergency

Note: Your fireangel may beep or start chirping once a minute on removal of shipping disablement ribbon. This is normal, read on for clarification.

2. Locate Suitable Lighting Fixture

Important

Your FireAngel requires a mains supply of electricity to recharge the integral battery. Only install in suitable light fittings

that are used regularly. Your FireAngel requires the light to be switched on for a total of 1 hour per week to remain in

its fully charged state. Please ensure your home’s electrical wiring is in accordance with BS7671.

a) Orientation

Your FireAngel is only intended to operate with the bulb

underneath. Under no circumstances should your FireAngel

be installed upside down.

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR FIREANGEL

1. Hold FireAngel 3. Pull out from base

of alarm

2. Unplug ribbon

connector

4. Remove ribbon from

FireAngel & retain

(see page 20)

b) Type & Position

Your FireAngel is only intended for

installation in batten and pendant type

bayonet lighting fixtures that allow your

FireAngel to hang within 28cm (11 inches)

of the ceiling. The closer to the ceiling

your FireAngel is fitted, the faster it will

respond in a fire emergency.

Warning

Do not fit your FireAngel in wall-mounted lights, table lamps, standard lamps or any other type of lighting fixture that

is not recommended. Failure to comply with this instruction could render the FireAngel inoperative in the event of a

fire emergency.

c) Lampshade

Your FireAngel is only intended for installation within lampshades that allow the flow of air around and through the Alarm. This

usually means that the lampshade is open at both ends. The lampshade must be open at the top for two reasons. Firstly to

allow smoke to enter the alarm from above and secondly to allow hot air to escape from the bulb and FireAngel. Please refer to

the guide below for clarification.

Warning

Your FireAngel will only alert you to fire emergency situations on sensing smoke. Under no circumstances should you

install your FireAngel in spherical paper lanterns or fully sealed (enclosed) lampshades as this could render your

FireAngel inoperative in the event of a fire emergency and will invalidate your warranty.

d) Lightbulbs

Your FireAngel is only intended for use with conventional bayonet light bulbs up to a maximum rating of 60 watts, and

long life/low energy (PL Tube) type bulbs of any rating.

Warning

Using light bulbs above a 60 watt rating will significantly reduce the life span of your FireAngel and invalidate your

warranty.

3. Install Your FireAngel

a) Conventional type lampshades

Ensure the selected light fitting is switched off and that the bulb is cool.

a) Remove the bulb from the

light fitting.

c) Install into pendant

ensuring that lampshade

arms do not foul.

b) Slacken the lampshade

fixing skirt, to allow

rotation of the lampshade

d) Fit the bulb into the

aperture provided in the

base of your FireAngel.

b) ‘Uplighter’ type lampshades

Ensure the selected light fitting is switched off and that the bulb is cool. Remove the bulb from the light fitting.

a) Remove the lampshade

fixing skirt, to allow the

removal of the

lampshade.

Note: care must be taken

to avoid the lampshade

falling.

c) Fit your FireAngel into the

light fitting.

b) Place the lampshade’s

fixing ring over your

FireAngel.

d) Fit the bulb into the

aperture provided in the

base of your FireAngel.

Important

Your FireAngel has been designed to fit within the arms of the majority of lampshades. If the arms on your lampshade

are not wide enough apart to allow installation, simply ease apart until your FireAngel can be fitted.

Important

Your FireAngel has been designed to fit into modern light fixtures that use an average length fixing skirt. In certain

cases it may be necessary to upgrade to a smaller lampshade fixing skirt to allow installation.
