Functional test

 

To verify its functioning, the smoke detector is fitted with an 
opening for test spray. To perform the test, proceed as follows.

Fig. 8.6

Observe the functional testing instructions as 
described in paragraph 4.4.

 

Turn off the extraction fan.

Remove the cap of the test opening (A).

Insert the test spray’s tube into the test opening.

Release as much test gas as needed to activate the smoke 
sensor. In this case, the sensor LEDs (B) light up and the 
ShieldControl panel indicates a fire in Zone 3. 

Fig. 8.6

The detector resets automatically once the test gas chamber is 
free from smoke. The sensor LED

es

 at the same 

time.

Place the cap back on the test opening.

8.5

Maintenance

The sensor wil become polluted over time. When the sensor is 
75% contaminated, it must be replaced. This is indicated by the 
yellow status LED on the smoke detector and on the LightTower 
(option). 

During use, check the sensor LEDs and the status LEDs 
regularly. 

Replace the sensor when the yellow LED flashes. 

  

 

ATTENTION!

Notify all parties involved that you will be testing the 
fire safety system; refer to paragraph 1.4.
