Test
NFPA 72 and CAN/ULC S537 require a calibrated sensitivity
test upon completion of the original installation and following
any modifications or additions to the system. The detector can
perform this test and generate a system sensitivity report.
To test the detector:
1. Before initial testing, remove the dust cover from the
detector and notify the proper authorities that the fire
alarm system is undergoing maintenance and will be
temporarily out of service.
2. Test the detector for proper operation using a heat gun
maintaining a six-inch minimum distance. Use caution as
excess heat can damage the detector and detector
housing.
