ACTION AFTER EVERY ACTIVATION
Wait until the smoke production has ceased.
Do not try to enter the affected area as you
will not be able to see through the fog.
Look for signs of forced entry. If you find any, or you believe that intruders are on the
premises, call the Police and wait for them to arrive.
Take no further action.
Where there are no signs of forced entry, open all external doors and wait for the fog to
start clearing
– this may take 10 to 15 minutes. Keep watch for intruders that may have
been screened by the fog.
As visibility returns open more doors or windows to speed up the venting process.
Check the fluid level for the Smoke Screen by checking the appropriate LEDs as described
above. It is recommended that the installer or Concept Smoke Screen are requested to
service/replenish the Smoke Screen if there have been 2 or more activations of the Smoke
Screen.
SERVICING AND FLUID REPLENISHMENT
Please note that it is a requirement of the standards relating to security fogging devices the Smoke
Screen is serviced/replenished by an engineer certified by the manufacturer. If you are unsure,
ask the engineer for his certification ID card. It is recommended that the Smoke Screen is checked
and the fluid changed annually by the installer or Concept Smoke Screen. Always ensure that the
Smoke Screen has sufficient fluid or it will not produce smoke when needed. It is recommended
that the installer or Concept Smoke Screen are requested to service/replenish the Smoke Screen if
there have been 2 or more activations of the Smoke Screen.
WARNING
- only Smoke Screen fluid should be used as other smoke fluids may cause damage or
noxious fumes.
FAQ
Q:
The Smoke Screen is indicating it is ready to operate but does not respond to a full alarm
test.
A:
With power applied, and keeping clear of the smoke nozzle, disconnect the
“Alarm”/”Trigger” and “Hold Off” connection plugs from the PCB. If the Smoke
Screen produces smoke there is a miss-connection in the system wiring.
Q:
The Smoke Screen is puffing out smoke whilst heating up.
A:
This is the result of very small amounts of air and residual fluid in the heater block
being changed into an insignificant volume of smoke and can happen particularly
after the Smoke Screen has been moved about when cold.
