Commissioning 

Smoke Detector

 

1. 

Ensure all the alarm signal services, releasing devices and 
extinguisher systems are disabled during the commissioning 
period. 

2. 

Connect power to the detector for approximately 1 min and 
check that the red alarm LED indicators flash once every 3 s. 
If the LED fails to flash, it indicates the detector is not 
operating. Check the wiring for the correct voltage and earth 
leakage. Replace the detector if necessary. 

3. 

Allow smoke from a cotton wick or a test smoke aerosol to 
enter the detector-sensing chamber for at least 10

 

s. When 

sufficient smoke has entered the chamber, the detector will 
signal an alarm, by continuous illumination of the LED. 

4. 

Upon alarm, immediately remove the smoke source. 

5. 

Reset the detector from the control and indicating equipment. 

6. 

Check that the detector LEDs are off and the control and 
indicating returns to the quiescent condition. 

Heat Detector

 

1. 

Subject the detector to a flow of warm air at a temperature of 
between 65 ˚C and 80 ˚C as follows (this requirement can be 
met by some domestic hair dryers). 

a. 

Start the warm airflow and check that temperature is 
correct and stable. 

b. 

From a distance of approximately 5 cm, direct the 
airflow at the guard protecting the thermistor for up to 
30 s. The detector will signal an alarm by continuous 
illumination of the LEDs. 

c. 

Upon alarm, immediately remove the heat source. 

2. 

Reset the detector from the control and indicating equipment. 

3. 

Check that the detector LEDs are off and the control and 
indicating returns to the quiescent condition. 

Remote Indicator (where fitted)

 

Check that the indicator illuminates at the same time as the 
detector LEDs. 

Output Relay (where fitted)

 

1. 

Follow Heat Detector procedure step 1. 

2. 

Monitor the output relay for activation. 

3. 

Reset the detector from the control and indicating equipment. 

4. 

Monitor the output relay for reset to its quiescent setting. 

Auto-Reset (where fitted)

 

1. 

Follow Heat Detector procedure step 1. 

2. 

Monitor that the detector automatically resets. 

The auto-reset will typically reset the detector within 30 s of the 
removal of the heat source.  

Final Conditions 

Ensure all the alarm signal services, releasing devices and 
extinguisher systems disabled for the commissioning are returned 
to their previous condition.
