Description
A traditional photoelectric sensor and a second blue LED sensor to detect different particle sizes in the air. These two sensors are capable of recognising the difference between smoke, dust and vapour. The combination of sensors means the alarm is better able to reduce false alarms that were previously caused by things like steam, dust and humidity. Field testing has shown that the GT split spectrum technology can reduce false alarms from vapour and dust by 99%.
Remote Silencing
When you burn the toast silence the smoke alarm with your TV Remote.
GT High Performance smoke alarms contain an infrared sensor which allows the alarm to be instantly silenced by any existing IR remote control in the home.
Within 12 minutes of silencing the alarms and smoke density increases, the alarm sound will trigger again because the alarm will see that as an indication that it wasn’t a false alarm.
Silencing the alarms with a remote control does not disable the alarm – it is just muting the alarm and the alarm is still active.
With GT High Performance smoke alarms you have the split spectrum technology working to reduce unnecessary false alarms and a convenient way of silencing those alarms that do still occur in the form of remote silence.
