Testing
1.6.1
Special Conditions for Testing
The SS4-AS/-AS2 Detector should be tested immediately after installation, after
repair or maintenance involving wiring or model replacement, after periodic
maintenance, or after lens contamination has been identified.
1.6.2
Automatic Testing
Automatic SLR-BIT (Built In Test) “through-the-lens” self-testing is performed,
during Detector operation, for virtually all-internal electronic systems at the
selected Test Period (Section 1.5, 3). One of the Red LEDs will remain
illuminated (Fault) to indicate contamination of the window lens, missing the
protective Self-test grill, or when removing the enclosure cover.
1.6.3
Manual Testing
For manual testing, the SS4-AS/-AS2 Detector may be exposed to an actual
industry standard open flame or to a Test Lamp simulating a fire. It is mandatory
to use the Honeywell Analytics handheld UV/IR Test Lamp Model No. FT-2045 or
FT-2145 with SS4 Fire Detectors. The FT-2045 and FT-2145 Test Lamps are
housed in an Explosion-Proof enclosure, powered by internal rechargeable
batteries, and designed for indoor and outdoor use. For additional information on
the Test Lamp, refer to FSC Specifications SP0242 for the FT-2045 or 1505-
008A for the FT-2145.
NOTE:
Other manufacturers UV/IR Test Lamps should not be utilized
to test FSC Detectors; conversely, the Models FT-2045 and FT-2145
Test Lamp should not be utilized for testing other manufacturer’s
Detectors.
