Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does India require a true multi-sensor detector rather than a standalone smoke detector?
A: Indian fire safety tenders now follow EN54 practice where multi-sensor detectors combine dual optical smoke sensing with A1R rate-of-rise/fixed temperature heat sensing. This delivers earlier and more reliable fire detection with significantly fewer false alarms than standalone smoke detectors or basic environmental sensors.
Q: Is the WL-LW100 certified to sell in India?
A: Yes. The WL-LW100 series carries EN54-5 (heat), EN54-7 (smoke) and EN54-25 (wireless link) certification with CE and RoHS, and ships with complete documentation for IN865-867 MHz operation and WPC radio registration support.
Q: Which frequency band does the detector use in India?
A: All Wanlin LoRaWAN devices operate on the Indian IN865-867 MHz band, the licensed-exempt ISM band for LoRaWAN in India, ensuring compatibility with Indian LoRaWAN gateways and network servers.
Q: What is the battery life and maintenance requirement?
A: The sealed 10-year lithium battery delivers a full decade of maintenance-free operation, with low-battery and device-fault status reported automatically to the LoRaWAN network and cloud platform.
Q: What is the MOQ and delivery time to India?
A: MOQ starts at 100 units for private label and 500 units for full ODM. Production takes 12-15 days for standard orders and 15-20 days for OEM/ODM; samples ship within 5-7 days by air.
