Description:
The First Alert Cat. No. SA340B is a battery operated, 9V (three 3V lithium 
power cells) single station smoke alarm specifically designed for residential 
and institutional applications including sleeping rooms of hospitals, hotels, 
motels, dormitories and other multi-family dwellings as defined in standard 
NFPA 101. Model SA340B complies with UL217, CSFM, NFPA 72, HUD, 
FHA and other agencies that model their codes after the above agencies. 
It meets building codes where tamperproof 10-year sealed lithium battery 
operated smoke alarms are required.
First Alert SA340B features a dual ionization smoke sensing chamber, 
an 85 dB horn, a sealed 10-year lithium power cell power supply that is 
permanently installed upon activation of unit, a single button for test/
silence and a red LED that blinks to indicate unit is receiving power. The 
tamperproof design will not allow the powercells to be removed after 
installation. The low power warning indicator will cause the alarm to "chirp" 
when it reaches the end of its service life and needs to be replaced. Upon 
end of life, the unit meets UL requirements for 
disabling the alarm and non-reinstallation 
of unit to mounting bracket.
Designed for surface 
mounting, the SA340B 
includes mounting anchors 
and screws. Includes a 
gasketless base for 
easy installation and 
a new mounting 
bracket that 
keeps the alarm 
secure over a 
wide rotation 
range to allow 
for perfect 
alignment.  
Pins are provided 
to lock unit to 
mounting bracket 
and to prevent 
removal and 
theft of unit.
