Many of today’s fire alarm installations have detectors in places which are very difficult to access.  Examples include lift shafts, voids, warehouses and manufacturing plants.  This has caused a problem when it comes to testing these units on the ongoing maintenance program.

The Scorpion detector testing kits are a solution to this problem.  The test unit is permanently installed with the detector and then connected to a control panel in an easy access area.  Service engineers can then conduct a test of the detector via the panel as opposed to having to access the detector itself.

So where is Scorpion used?  Here’s a few of the examples:

-          Detectors in secure areas such as prisons, clean rooms, military premises etc.

-          Detectors in public areas such as airports, shopping malls, hospitals etc.

-          Detectors in hazardous areas (including detectors at height)

-          Detectors in awkward locations such as lift shafts and voids etc.

And what are the benefits?  There are many – for example:

-          Reduced testing time for service engineers (allowing them to make more money as the have more time)

-          Reduced cost due to no special equipment being required

-          Reduced disruption to public and secure areas

-          Reduced need for out of hours work
