Smoke Entry: Aerosol Generator (Gemini 501)
The GEMINI model 501 aerosol generator can be used for smoke entry
testing. Set the generator to represent 4%/ft to 5%/ft obscuration as de-
scribed in the GEMINI 501 manual. Using the bowl shaped applicator,
apply aerosol until the panel alarms. Additionally, canned aerosol simu-
lated smoke (canned smoke agent) may be used for smoke entry testing
of the smoke detector. Tested and approved aerosol smoke product is
the Smoke Detector Tester model 25S available from Home Safeguard
Industries. When used properly, the canned smoke agent will cause the
smoke detector to go into alarm. Refer to the manufacturer's published
instructions for proper use of the canned smoke agent.
Canned aerosol simulated smoke (canned smoke agent) formulas will vary by
manufacturer. Misuse or overuse of these products may have long term adverse
effects on the smoke detector. Consult the canned smoke agent manufacturer's
published instructions for any further warnings or caution statements.
A sensor that fails any of these tests should be cleaned as described under
CLEANING, and retested. If the sensor fails after cleaning, it must be replaced.
When testing is complete, restore the system to the normal operation and no-
tify the proper authorities that the system is back in operation.

CLEANING
Before cleaning, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing
maintenance and will be temporarily out of service. Disable the system to
prevent unwanted alarms.
1.
Remove the sensor to be cleaned from the system.
2.
Remove the sensor cover. Press firmly on each of the four removal tabs
that hold the cover in place.
3.
Vacuum the outside of the screen carefully. If further cleaning is required,
continue with Step 4, otherwise skip to Step 5.
4.
Use clean, compressed air to remove dust and debris from the sensing
chamber.
5.
Replace the cover using the LEDs to align the cover and then gently
pushing it until it locks into place.
6.
Reinstall the detector.
7.
Test the detector as described in TESTING.
8.
Reconnect disabled circuits.
9.
Notify the proper authorities that the system is back on line.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING SmOKE DETECTOR GUARDS
Smoke detectors are not to be used with detector guards unless the combina-
tion has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
