6.1 Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance Recommendations
6.1.1 NFPA 72, Chapter 14 recommendations
NFPA 72, section 14.4.3.3 dictates that video image smoke and flame detectors shall be inspected, tested, and
maintained in accordance with the manufacturers published instructions. Fike Video Analytics Corporation, as the
manufacturer of the FVA‐IP video image flame and smoke detector, has detailed these procedures to aid end users,
AHJs, and Fike Video Analytics distributors in establishing an inspection, testing and maintenance program. It is in the
interest of all parties to ensure that a functional system is provided and maintained.
6.1.2 Inspections
Inspections should be done on a semi‐annual basis (twice a year); however, camera(s) and associated equipment that
are inaccessible for safety considerations (e.g. continuous process operations, energized electrical equipment,
radiation, and excessive height) shall be inspected during scheduled shutdowns if approved by the authority having
jurisdiction. These extended intervals shall not exceed 18 months. The inspection should ensure no obstructions are
between the detector and protected area, that lenses are clear, and free of contaminants, that the cameras do not
have mechanical damage, and that the unit is directed toward the intended hazard.
Obstructions within 10 ft. (3 m) of the camera that obstruct the line of site to the hazard area are to be removed or the
camera location is to be adjusted to ensure that the hazard area is covered.
The video feeds at the security station (Fike VMS software) can be checked for clarity to ensure that a buildup of dust,
grease or other debris has not obscured the lens. Reference images produced from the Fike VMS software report (see
VMS manual) can be used as a reference.
A visual inspection of the camera should be made to identify mechanical damage. LED’s on the front and rear panel
indicate camera state of alarm, processing and communication.
The cameras field of view (FOV) should be checked to ensure that it matches the Fike video management software
Audit report and that the cameras have not been moved or miss aligned.
6.1.3 Testing
Testing should be done on an annual basis; however, camera(s) and associated equipment that are inaccessible for
safety considerations (e.g. continuous process operations, energized electrical equipment, radiation, and excessive
height) shall be tested during scheduled shutdowns if approved by the authority having jurisdiction. These extended
intervals shall not exceed 18 months. Testing can be broken down into two sections; functional and operational
conformance. Tests are performed by Fike Video Analytics Corporation as part of the Quality Control (QC) process. All
FVA‐IP cameras undergo extensive testing before being shipped to a customer as part of Factory Mutual (FM) approval
conformance. These tests include live fire tests, communication tests, and a burn in of the cameras.
Cameras located on site can be quickly visually inspected for operational conformance. This is done by observing the
user interface video stream and the front face plate of the camera. If an image is present and the overlay text added
by the software is updating (time and frame rate will progress and fluctuate respectively) then the cameras are
functioning and they have the ability to detect at the prescribed sensitivity levels.
