The Hispec HSSA/HCO/FF10 is a 230V mains-powered multi-sensor alarm that combines a fixed 60°C heat sensor with an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor in a single unit, with a 10-year rechargeable lithium back-up battery. It can be hard-wire interconnected with up to 20 compatible Hispec fire and CO alarms over a maximum of 150m, so all alarms sound when one is activated, and it is supplied with Hispec's Fast Fix base. It suits kitchens and rooms containing fuel-burning appliances.
