Product Description

The Ei176 is a complete smoke alarm system designed
for the deaf and hard of hearing. The system includes
the Ei173 control panel, Ei174 vibrating pad and
Ei105CD optical smoke alarm.

The Ei173 control panel includes a high intensity Xenon
strobe, a sealed lead-acid rechargeable battery for
standby use in the event of mains failure and all the
required circuitry to connect to the Ei105CD smoke
alarm and Ei174 vibrating pad

The Ei173 control panel also incorporates a Test button
and circuitry to continuously monitor the system wiring

The Ei174 vibrating pad is designed to be placed under
the mattress or pillow to waken people who fail to
respond to the strobe alarm

Up to 11 other smoke/heat alarms (Ei100C/105C/103C)
can be interconnected to the master smoke alarm
Ei100CD. The smoke alarms are all powered from the
control panel and in the event of mains failure the
rechargeable battery in the panel will power the entire
system, including the smoke alarms, for one week.

Operation

The green indicator will illuminate to show mains power
is present

The red indicator will flash once every second to show
that the mains supply is off and the system is running
on battery backup power

The red indicator will go off as the battery becomes
depleted (with mains off)

The slide switch on the control panel disconnects mains
and battery power from the control panel and
extinguishes both LED indicators

The “Test” button will check the strobe, vibration pad
and panel

When the Ei105CD optical smoke alarm is activated,
the Ei173 control panel will flash the strobe at 1Hz and
activate the vibrating pad

The interconnect wiring from the smoke alarm to the
control panel is monitored so that if the smoke alarm is
not connected or if it is open/short circuit, then the
strobe will flash and the vibrating pad will turn on

An auxiliary socket allows the connection of an extra
strobe or vibrating pad

MAINS POWERED 230V~

For the deaf and hard of hearing
