CAUTION
Dust covers provide limited protection against airborne
dust particles during shipping. Dust covers must be
removed before the sensors can sense smoke. Remove
sensors prior to heavy remodeling or construction.
Testing
Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system
is undergoing maintenance, and will temporarily be out of
service. Disable the system to prevent unwanted alarms.
All sensors must be tested after installation and periodi-
cally thereafter. Testing methods must satisfy the Authority
Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum per-
formance when tested and maintained in compliance with
CAN/ULC S536.
The sensor can be tested in the following ways:
A. Functional: Magnet Test (P/N M02-04-01 or M02-09-
00)
This sensor can be functionally tested with a test mag-
net. The test magnet electronically simulates smoke in
the sensing chamber, testing the sensor electronics and
connections to the control panel.
1. Hold the test magnet in the magnet test area as

2. The sensor should alarm the panel.
Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel
to indicate sensor status. Coded signals, transmitted
from the panel, can cause the LEDs to blink, latch
on, or latch off. Refer to the control panel technical
documentation for sensor LED status operation and
expected delay to alarm.
B. Smoke Entry: Aerosol Generator (Gemini 501)
The GEMINI model 501 aerosol generator can be used
for smoke entry testing. Set the generator to represent
4%/ft. to 5%/ft. obstruction as described in the GEMINI
501 manual. Using the bowl shaped applicator, apply
aerosol until the panel alarms.
A sensor that fails any of these tests should be cleaned
as described under
CLEANING
, and retested. If the
sensor fails after cleaning, it must be replaced and
returned for repair.
When testing is complete, restore the system to nor-
mal operation and notify the proper authorities that the
system is back in operation.
