Long Life Smoke Detector with a Sealed 10-Year Lithium Battery

Product Overview

The JKD-518 is a long life photoelectric smoke detector developed for residential fire protection. It combines a photoelectric smoke sensor with a sealed lithium battery designed to support the detector throughout its intended 10-year service life, helping reduce routine maintenance compared with replaceable-battery models.

The detector is designed for standalone operation and does not require mains power, Wi-Fi or Zigbee connectivity. Once installed, it continuously monitors for smoke and provides an audible alarm of at least 85dB when smoke reaches the specified alarm threshold.

Manufactured according to EN14604:2005/AC:2008, the JKD-518 is also available in versions meeting AS3786:2023 requirements for customers serving the Australian market. This allows distributors and brand owners to source products for different regions from a single manufacturing partner.

Why Choose a Long Life Smoke Detector?

For residential projects, reducing maintenance is often as important as meeting technical standards.

A long-life smoke detector helps:

• Reduce scheduled battery replacement
• Lower maintenance costs over the product's service life
• Minimize the risk of the detector being left without power due to battery removal
• Improve convenience for homeowners and property managers
• Support large residential developments where maintenance efficiency is a priority

The sealed battery design also helps ensure that the detector remains powered throughout its intended service life under normal operating conditions.

Product Features

Sealed 10-Year Lithium Battery

Test and Silence Function

A built-in test button allows users to verify normal operation, while the silence function temporarily mutes nuisance alarms for approximately 10 minutes after safety has been confirmed.
