•
NOTE
Actual response times of the EQP Model may vary.
The following performance criteria were verified:
OpTICAL INTEGRITY TEST:
The detector generated an optical fault in the presence of contamination on any single or combination of lens surfaces
resulting in a loss of approximately 50% of its detection range, verifying that the detector performs a calibrated
Automatic Optical Integrity (
oi
) test for each sensor. Upon removal of the contamination, the detector fault was cleared
and the detector was verified to detect a fire.
The Manual / Magnetic
oi
performs the same calibrated test as the Automatic
oi
, and additionally actuates the alarm
relay to verify output operation. If there is a 50% loss of its detection range, an alarm signal is not generated.
