FlameSpec-FLS-FSIM Flame Simulators

The FlameSpec Flame Simulator provides fast and convenient detector verification in the field.

Introduction

Flame simulators are often used by industry to perform detector testing during commissioning and periodic system testing. The FlameSpec simulators are inexpensive, lightweight and simple to use. The modern ergonomic design, with alignment markers, allows accurate, fast and convenient detector performance verification. Suitable for use in hazardous areas, the FlameSpec simulators can be used at distances  of up to 23.0 feet (7.0 meters) from the detector.

Three different models  are available for testing each type of FlameSpec Detector (IR3, IR3-H2 and UV-IR)

All FlameSpec flame detectors perform automatic self-tests of their optics, windows, electronics and software. Additionally, the FlameSpec flame detectors can be manually put into alarm via the FGD communicator software or by short circuiting the “Manual BIT” terminal and the “24 VDC (-)“ terminal for one second.  The FlameSpec flame test simulators are designed to complement these inbuilt features by providing a fully external loop test capability.
