SMOKE TESTING FOR ASD SYSTEMS AND HARD TO ACCESS POINT DETECTORS COLE ESS Ki W See oe Nat cht SSS pm r E scorpion www scorpion tester com WHAT IS SCORPION Scorpion is an innovative solution for functionally testing any hard to access smoke detector whether that is a point detector or aspirating smoke detection ASD system A Scorpion head unit is a smoke generator which is installed next to a detector and when required generates smoke which is directed towards the detector for a functional test of the device Scorpion makes testing detectors in lift shafts warehouses factories or secure areas as simple as testing a detector within easy reach It aids compliance with international codes and standards and means that all detectors in a building can be functionally tested at every maintenance interval regardless of their physical location HOW DOES IT WORK By introducing smoke right where it is needed Scorpion is able to activate point detectors or ASD systems with minimal inconvenience Scorpion is a micro smoke generator permanently installed adjacent to a point detector or a sampling hole an ASD pipe typically at the furthest sampling hole The smoke generator is connected to a Scorpion Control Panel or Access Point mounted at a convenient easy to access location at ground level Functional testing of the smoke detector is then
