More Details
BATTERIES: This alarm requires one 9V battery to operate. The battery`s life will depend on the tone chosen for the alarm. A low battery light indicates a battery change is needed.
FEATURES: The Personal alarm has the following features: five alarm tone settings; an alarm sound of no less than 95 db at one metre; low battery warning light; a sound dampening plug; up to 280 hours of battery life (dependent on tone); two mounting options for use in a bed,chair or shower; impact resistant plastic; and adjustable cord from 80cm to 150cm. The unit is compact and light weight.
METHOD OF USE: The Posey Personal Alarm is designed to alert a carer of a users movement beyond a predetermined distance. The alarm can be set to one of five tones to discriminate between different users. It can be mounted to a chair, wheelchair or bed frame using a saddle mount or it may be attached directly to a surface using velcro hook and loop. The alarm works via a magnet. A cord is attached to the user, at the other end is a magnet which is attached to the alarm. If the user moves beyond the predetermined range of the cord the magnet detaches from the alarm activating it immediately.
SAFETY: The sound dampening plug is intended to drastically reduce the alarm volume in crowded areas where an attendant is nearby. Do not use the dampening plug if the user can/will be travelling out of hearing range of the attendant.
