Aerosol (simulated smoke) test

MAINTENANCE

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS

WARRANTY

For this test only use test aerosols from an approved manufacturer, in accordance with their application instructions, in order to prevent 

contamination or possible damage to the detector. We suggest to spray the aerosol into the detector by using a recommended applica-

tor. The detector should trigger an alarm message to the control panel, and, successively, the detector’s red LED should be activated by 

the control panel itself.

Before starting any maintenance work, isolate and disable the system in order to avoid accidental and unwanted alarm or fault condi-

tions. Remove the detector from its mounting base to allow inspection in good light at ground level. Inspect the smoke entry ports around 

the detector; use a small, soft bristle brush to dislodge any evident contaminants such as insects, spider webs, hairs, etc. Use a small 

vacuum tube or clean, dry and compressed air to suck up or blow away any remaining small particles from the smoke entry screen area.

Wipe the exterior housing of the detector with a clean, damp, lint free cloth to remove any surface film that can later attract airborne 

contaminants. Use the hand-held programming unit to read the pollution percentage of the chamber; please, refer to the programming 

unit instruction manual. After all detectors have been inspected, repositioned on their mounting bases and power has been re-applied, 

check correct operation as described under the “TESTING” paragraph.

Our devices use high quality electronic components and plastic materials that are highly resistant to environ-

mental deterioration. However, after 10 years of continuous operation, it is advisable to replace the devices in 

order to minimize the risk of reduced performance caused by external factors. Ensure that this device is only 

used with 

VELOX

 control panels. Detection systems must be checked, serviced and maintained on a regular 

basis to confirm correct operation.

Smoke sensors may respond differently to various kinds of smoke particles, thus application advice should be 

sought for special risks. Sensors cannot respond correctly if barriers exist between them and the fire location 

and may be affected by special environmental conditions.

Refer to and follow national codes of practice and other internationally recognized fire engineering standards.

Appropriate risk assessment should be carried out initially to determine correct design criteria and updated 

periodically.

All devices are supplied with the benefit of a limited 5 year warranty relating to faulty materials or manufacturing 

defects, effective from the production date indicated on each product.

This warranty is invalidated by mechanical or electrical damage caused in the field by incorrect handling or 

usage.

Product must be returned via your authorized supplier for repair or replacement together with full information 

on any problem identified.

Full details on our warranty and product’s returns policy can be obtained upon request.

If the detector does not respond to the tests correctly it may be necessary to clean it: in this case follow the instructions indicated in the 

“MAINTENANCE” paragraph.

                 If testing fails again after maintenance then replace the detector with a new one and return the faulty one for servicing.

TESTING

Detectors should be tested after installation and during periodic maintenance visits (it is recommended each device should be tested at 

least once per year). When the system has been reset, allow, after each test, at least one minute for power stabilisation before the next 

test. Detectors can be tested as follow:
