ARCHITECTURAL AND  

ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS

The smoke alarm shall be PSA Lifesaver model LIF5800ACF. It shall 

be powered by a 240VAC, 50Hz source along with a fixed non-

removeable 10 year lithium battery backup. The unit shall incorporate 

photoelectric sensing technology with insect screen protection. The 

temperature operation range shall be between 0ºC and 40ºC and 

the humidity operating range shall be up to 93% relative humidity. 

The smoke alarm shall be low profile mounted designed with an 

installed dimension of 110mm wide x 28.5mm high. The electrical 

connection (to the alarm) shall be made with a plug-in connector. 

A maximum of 24 PSA Lifesaver devices can be interconnected in a 

multiple station arrangement.
The alarm shall include a test button that will electronically simulate 

the presence of smoke and cause the unit to go into alarm. This 

sequence tests the unit’s electronics, battery and horn to ensure 

proper operation. The unit shall include a piezoelectric horn that is 

rated at 85 decibels at 3 metres. Single button operates both Hush 

and alarm test for easy operation and less confusion. The unit shall 

also include a low battery warning utilizing a brief alarm chirp 

every 43 seconds for a minimum of seven (7) days. The unit shall 

incorporate red and green LED indicators. The green LED indicates 

the power status of the alarm. The red LED is a visual indicator of 

alarm and warning chirps.

Standby Condition:

 The green LED will be lit if on AC power or 

off if on battery backup. Alarm Condition: When the alarm senses 

products of combustion and enters alarm the red LED will blink 

in unison with the sounder. The flashing red LEDs and pulsating 

alarm will continue until the air is cleared. Should the units is in an 

interconnected system, it will sound an alarm and flash the red LED 

and the green LED will remain at is standby state. Alarm Memory: 

This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory, which provides 

an audible indication when an alarm has been activated. Pressing the 

Test button on the initiating unit will give rapid beeping indicating the 

unit is the initiator. It resets when the button is released.

Hush Mode:

 The Hush mode will be over ridden if there is heavy 

presence of smoke particles in the air. The unit shall at a minimum 

meet the requirements of AS3786:2014 and is Activfire listed. It shall 

also include a 10 year manufacture’s limited warranty.

and lead with terminal block for safe and easy installation. A 
mounting adapting ring is provided.
