To test the Mircom MIX-2351RAP smoke sensor, you can follow the instructions provided in the instruction manual:
1. **Functional Test (Magnet Test):**
- Use a test magnet (P/N M02-04-01 or M02-09-00) to simulate smoke in the sensing chamber.
- Hold the test magnet in the designated test area on the sensor.
- The sensor should trigger an alarm at the control panel.
2. **Smoke Entry Test:**
- Sensitivity readings can be accessed through the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
- Canned aerosol simulated smoke (approved products listed in the manual) can be used for smoke entry testing.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper use of the canned smoke agent.
3. **Remote Test:**
- The sensor can be remotely tested using the RTS151 or RTS151KEY test accessories.
- Refer to the DNR(W) manual for wiring diagrams and instructions.
- A sensor that fails any of these tests may need cleaning and retesting.
It is essential to notify the appropriate authorities before testing the system, disable the system to prevent false alarms, and follow NFPA 72 guidelines for testing and maintenance. Regular testing and maintenance ensure the sensor functions correctly in the event of a fire.
