Visual signal appliances individually inspected and tested. Actual number of End-of-Line Resistors tested: Record the date, revision and version of firmware: Have any system devices including alarms been actuated since the last inspection?

Power for ancillary devices is taken from a source separate from the fire alarm system control csn or transponder power supply.

Output circuit designations correctly identified in relation to connected field devices. Output u,c for selective voice paging, including visual indication, F operates. Ullc C Terminal clamps clean and tight? Combination multi-criteria detectors inspected and tested?

Input circuit to output circuit operation, including ancillary device circuits for correct Z program operation, as per design and specification, or documentation as detailed in Appendix E, Description of Fire Alarm System for Inspection and Test Procedures. G Test to ensure lights function for a duration equal to design criteria?

Once a month or so, take your vacuum on it’s lowest setting and utilizing a soft brush attachment, clean out the vents of the detector. Catholic Umbrella Pool II. Where fault isolation in power distribution riser has been provided, tests have been conducted to ensure a wire-to-wire short in the field wiring between each pair of control units or transponders, in C turn, results in annunciation of the fault and continued operation outside of the shorted section confirmed.

Have modifications or renovations been done since the cn inspection?

Batteries must be subjected to one of FIVE 5 test methodologies the fifth one involves replacement of the batteries with a new set ; Gen-sets if part of the emergency power supply must be tested for run and trouble indications at the fire alarm control. Multi-line sequential display operates as per Appendix C5.

You can download a convenient uc test record in PDF format.

Battery Type as installed: All addressable devices must be individually listed on the Device Test Record sheet. Please review additional Article 9 testing requirements on the Passive Systems page. T Generator provides power to the AC circuit serving the fire alarm system. Gauges checked against calibrated gauge or replaced? Electrically Driven Pump Test Is the controller performing run tests automatically?

G Confirm that the supervisory transmission to the fire signal receiving centre is received. Visual indicator test lamp test operates. All sprinkler pressure regulating control valves passed full flow test? Ancillary functions visual indicators operates. There are two types of smoke detectors alarms: For more information you can email us or telephone Quick opening devices passed test? Good Fair Replacement of affected components is indicated.

Interior of dry pipe valve cleaned? Main drain test shall be conducted on each system riser. Check concentration of antifreeze? Low Pressure supervisory device inspected and tested. Latches functional including break-glass type? Rechargeable batteries shall not be used in smoke alarms unless specifically recommended by the luc. The fire signal receiving centre transmitter is located remotely from the fire alarm control B unit.

Ionization type smoke detectors utilize a small source of radioactive material usually Americium that in fact ionizes airborne particulates and attracts them to to one side or the other of a polarized grid. Tamper switches inspected covers secured, leaks or corrosion? Yes No Pump run for ten 10 minutes Test log reviewed via visual display at controller?

Check heat trace controller interconnection to fire alarm system. Abnormally frequent false tripping of dry-pipe valves?
