Maintenance
After the FS17X Detector is installed and commissioned, virtually no maintenance required in a clean room
environment. However, a complete “end-to-end” test of the entire fire detection system should be performed
monthly or more frequently, depending on the application. Additionally, semi-annual or quarterly testing should
be performed, using the correct Fire Sentry Test Lamp, to ensure the integrity of the entire fire protection
system. (see Note in Section 2.4 and Section 4.3)
Clean the FS17X Detector window:
Each time the Detector is taken out of or put back into to service.
Detector window is dirty or contaminated.
Detector does not respond to an end-to-end test with the Fire Sentry Corporation hand-held portable
Test Lamp (TL-1055X or TL-2055X).
Each time the Detector has been disassembled for wiring or replacement.
Use a blast of clean air or an oil-free cloth to clean the Detector window. Occassionally, the use of a solvent,
such as alcohol is acceptable. No disassembly of the Detector is required.
