Morning Robyn,
 
I have just received the new battery in perfect order and would like to thank you for your quick response in this matter. It is in these situations that make the difference in who you choose to deal with. 
Thank you.
 
Kind Regards

I would just like to point out how helpful Lauren has been. We have an issue where our office is next to a railway crossing and currently the crossing is closed for roadworks. This is causing an issue with deliveries. Lauren called me to discuss and has arranged for our delivery to be redirected. Customer service is very important and clearly displayed by Acorn and the whole team. We have used Acorn several times since setting up our account and nothing but praise.
 
Efficient, speedy, helpful, detailed, professional  are just a few words to describe your team.
 
I will continue to place our orders from Acorn. 
 
Regards 
Andrew

Good Morning Emma,

I must say you are the best.  Normally I do not receive such fast replies from overseas suppliers, and that too complete with courier charges.

Have a nice day.

Dear All,

We would just like to express our absolute gratitude with the support of these upcoming projects we have found ourselves working on. The level of customer support within Acorn Fire is unmatched within the industry. A massive credit to Acorn are two staff members in particular Lyndsey and Jess who are always on hand to answer calls when we need emergency parts. Their knowledge within the industry are second to none and we are proud to have Acorn as our supplier and partner.

Just thought we would drop you this note to show our gratitude.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Talentum Flame Sensor Test Unit 16091

Talentum Flame Sensor Test Unit 16091

Talentum

Product Code: 16091

Please Contact Us for Price & Availability.

Please note: This product is now obsolete, the recommended replacement is the FFE 1800-101 Portable Test Unit Simulated Flame Detector Test Unit.

Talentum Flame Sensor Test Unit 16091

The Flame Sensor Test Kit is a tool which is designed to test flame detectors without the need of real flames. This test unit has been designed to generate a wide range of optical output signals. Flame sensors for fire detection and flame monitoring applications can be activated and tested.

Key Features:

  • Mimics the characteristics of real flames
  • Wide Spectral Output UV, Visible, Near IR, Mid-IR
  • Tests many flame sensors types UV, UV/IR, UV/IR2, IR3, IR2, IR
  • Portable with Rechargeable NiCd battery pack and charger
  • Selectable Optical Output Type - Constant illumination, Regular flashing sources (range of frequencies), Irregular flickering sources (resembling flames)
  • Selectable optical output intensity with LED bar graph indication
  • Range typically 3 metres and beyond
  • 30 Second timeout on each test
  • Auxiliary 24Vdc supply for testing

Functions:

Press 1 for constant illumination, 2 for regular flashing or 3 for irregular flicker. Entering a single digit will illuminate the output to 100% when on. The signal bar graph LED's will display the signal type selected. To activate the main output sources the * button must be held down.

Most optical flame sensors respond to Ultra Violet (UV) and or Infra Red (IR) radiation emitted from flames during combustion. Many sensors also use flame flicker techniques to distinguish between flames and other optical false sources. The test unit simulates the flickering flame signal by modulating the output of a filament lamp. the thermal time constant of a filament lamp prevents the generation of a perfect flame flicker signal. The slow response of a filement lamp will mean that some flame sensors many require more time to activate under test than they would with a real flame.

Operation:

To power up the unit remove the clip on base and operate the power switch. With the power on the green supply LED will illuminate if the battery has sufficient charge and flash if the battery is low. The yellow signal bar graph LED's display the intensity and frequency selected.

The unit is intender for service engineers to use, when performing commissioning and routine maintenance. As the test unit does not have an (ex) approval for hazardous areas, a permit would be required to check a detector in such areas. The service engineer could also carry a portable flammable gas alarm to indicate if the area is safe for testing.
