Smoke detectors

Smoke Sensor with indoor siren function The Z-Wave smoke detector from manufacturer POPP sets new safety standards in your home.

There are a lot of potential fire sources in your own four walls, for example open fire such as candles or a fireplace. Also an iron, cooking utensils or numerous other electrical device can cause fire.

Smoke detectors can save lives. In case of a fire or smoke emission every second counts giving the chance to extinguish the fire or to get somebody or themselves out of harm’s way. The Z-Wave smoke detector detects resulting fire and smoke emission reliable. In case of emergency it alarms acoustically and sends alarm signal to Z-Wave network so that all other smoke detectors in range can be alarmed. That ensures that the alert also reaches people in all floors as well as in the night while they are sleeping.

Thanks to Z-Wave wireless technology you can define further actions triggered by the smart home control center in case of an alarm. To enhance safety, escape routes can be highlighted with automated lighting and unlocking or locking of shutters and doors.

Z-Wave smart home buys time for you to get somebody or yourself out of harm’s way

Beyond these functions the Z-Wave smoke detector can be used as an independent indoor siren which can be integrated into an existing security system. Within your Z-Wave smart home network the smoke detector can be connected to other sensors such as door and window contacts or motion sensors independently from a control center. In case of an alarm the acoustic signal will be different from the signal in case of fire.

Highlights:

- World’s first smoke detector with Z-Wave wireless technology and certified by VdS to EN14604
- Independent operation without smart home center possible
- According to the guideline DIN EN14604, the smoke detector warns via a light signal and a siren (defined volume of 85db in a distance of 3 meters)
- Can also be used as an independent indoor siren
- Easy to install and easy for professional installers to open for cleaning
- A lock prevents the installation of the device without battery
