8.1 Checking for Spillage
CAUTION-Whilst checking for spillage care must be
taken to avoid touching hot panels.
1. Before starting the test close all doors and windows.
2. Operate the fire from cold at maximum input.
3. After approximately five minutes check for spillage.
4. Fit a smoke match into a holder, and position with the
holder held horizontally projecting 20mm under the lip of the
canopy bottom and 70mm from the start of the straight
section on one side of the fire (Fig. 43 & 44).
5. If spillage is evident leave the fire operating for a further
ten minutes and repeat test.
6. If test is successful repeat with any extractor fan
operating and connecting doors open to create the worst
likely operating conditions.
7. If spillage still occurs and the problem cannot be rectified
the fire must be isolated until the problem is resolved.
NOTE: It is important that the smoke match is
positioned accurately for the test as an incorrectly
positioned match may result in smoke being picked up
by convected air currents, indicating spillage.
