Kidde – Intelligent Smoke Detector – Model : KI-OSD + KI-SB

Protect your home or business with the Kidde KI-OSD Intelligent Smoke Detector, a cutting-edge optical (photoelectric) device from Kidde’s advanced Optica Series. Engineered for superior fire detection, this intelligent detector uses patented multi-criteria optical sensing technology to quickly identify real smoke from fast- and slow-burning fires common in modern environments. By employing dual optical wavelengths and multiple detection angles, it intelligently differentiates smoke particles from non-threatening ones—like dust or cooking steam—dramatically reducing false alarms and ensuring reliable performance. The onboard microprocessor continuously analyzes sensor data against preprogrammed thresholds, delivering peace of mind with self-diagnostics, environmental compensation, and easy integration into existing fire alarm systems. Compatible exclusively with Kidde Intelligent Loop controllers, the KI-OSD is UL-listed under the 7th edition of UL 268, making it an essential upgrade for enhanced life safety, property protection, and compliance in residential, commercial, or multi-use buildings. Installation is straightforward using standard wiring and mounting bases, saving time and costs while providing up to 250 addresses per loop for scalable systems.
