- Description
- A heat kit used for testing point smoke detectors. The kit comprises of a head unit and access point. The head unit is mounted alongside the point detector using the fixings provided. It is connected to and powered by the control panel. When a test starts a small amount of oil, in the head unit, is warmed up enough to produce smoke. The oil is held in a small reservoir into which a hollow metal tube is inserted. The tube is warmed up using an electric coil, powered through the controller. As the metal tube heats up, a tiny amount of oil is drawn up inside the tube, in turn getting heated up and turns to smoke. A fan is used to blow this smoke out into the point detector pipe. The head unit is made from abs plastic with a small circuit board. The fixings are made of mild steel. The access point has plastic mounting and has wiring in it. It is mounted on a wall plate and is used as a connector between the controller and head unit. The items are packaged together for sale in a carton, without the need for repacking. Product dimensions: 28cm x 12cm x 7cm
