a word of caution,we have two sites fitted with these smoke detectors,one with 9,one with 5,on both sites we had problems with them triggering the system,we could find nothing wrong,we contacted scantronic to be told by their rep that they do not reconmend putting than more one on each zone,(even though they give diagramme on how to link each one)in the end we had to remove them,

Yes I recconmend M12 detectors from the same manufacturer as the panel. You can fit as many as you have spare zones or double or treble up. Not too many though. Depends what else is connected.
