1 The following test will simulate a real fire condition and may activate the
extinguishing system or other alarms. If this is not desired, disconnect them
before the test and reconnect after the simulation.
2 Please note that if your flame detector mode is in “High UV protection
enabled” - switch SW-3 ON, a beam collimator should be used.
Follow these instructions to simulate a fire:
1 Aim the Fire Simulator towards the detector’s “Target Point” (see Fig. 14)
2 For testing, keep a distance of at least 20 inches (50cm) from the detector.
3 Press the operation button once. Fire simulation will last for 20 seconds. The
detector will send an alarm signal.
4 For another fire simulation a 20 second time lapse is required between tests.
5 Make sure the optical window is clean and keep the Fire Simulator in the
storage case when not in use.
