Smoke Cartridges
The smoke cartridges consists of compressed chemicals contained within a resilient and waterproof sheath which when 'ignited' produce a thick plume of real smoke. Incorrectly designed Automatic Fire Detection sytems, incorrectly sited detectors, or malfunctioning equipment are life threatening. Even after design and commissioning regular, and ongoing testing remains essential to ensure that later building changes do not affect the ability of the detector to receive smoke. BS 5839 Part 1 recommends that suitable and regular verification be undertaken. This range of smoke cartridges can assist in testing installations to assure compliance.
Note:
It is recommended that the premium smoke cartridges are used on all electrical and electronic equipment.
Uses:
Efficient, visual air flow tests inside rooms or buildings before system installation
Efficient and effective commissioning tests
Regular post installation testing providing early indications of problems
Tests of beam type smoke detectors which are otherwise difficult to access
Tests of duct situated smoke detectors which are otherwise difficult to access
Tests on fire vents and fire dampers
Draught detecting and ventilation system testing
Leak and blockage testing in flumes
Features:
Non-toxic and oil free smoke from quick, easy and convenient to use cartridges
Rapid dispersal of smoke after use
Cartridges burn down to hard residue for easy disposal
No power source required
Realistic smoke with the same density as air, appearing initially as a plume
Smoke remains effective even when the air is heated to high temperatures
Complete range of types, sizes, smoke volumes and burning times
Perfumed smoke suitable for residential and commercial environments
Premium range suitable for use in computer suites
Cartridges have waterproof ignition surface which, once ignited will continue to 'burn' even when under, or subjected to water
Small particle size such that even the smallest leak can be pinpoin...
