Smoke Alarms Product Range Smoke Alarm, Photoelectric, Surface Mount (755PSMA) Smoke Alarms A Clipsal FireTek 755 Series Smoke Alarm is a small investment, yet potentially one of the most important you will ever make. The 755 Series offers ionisation and photoelectric models, in surface-mount and aesthetically appealing flush-mount designs. Both models offer total protection in residential or commercial installations. You should consider installing a combination of ionisation and photoelectric alarms in your home, to cater for different types of smoke.

There are two main types of smoke detectors: ionisation, and photoelectric types. Each is specifically designed to detect different types of smoke, and give the earliest possible warning in the event of a fire. The amount of warning given depends on the type of combustible material that is burning, and the type of alarm selected for your home. The more warning you get, the more time you have to escape toxic smoke and flames. Ionisation type alarms respond faster to small smoke particles, such as those given off by burning paper, straw, or wood. Photoelectric alarms respond faster to larger smoke particles, such as those produced by burning foam, rubber, plastics and other synthetic materials. Nowadays, most homes are filled with synthetic materials. These include nylon found in carpets and curtains, plastic consumer goods and the foam rubber found in a lounge chair or mattress of your bed. Therefore the best detector type for your home is usually a photoelectric detector type. For the ultimate protection, a combination of both ionisation and photoelectric is recommended.
