Product Overview

2Product Overview
To comply with local standards and jurisdictional authorities, "end-to-end" loop
testing of fire protection alarm systems, including detectors, should be performed
periodically. Many safety authorities and plant managers of high-value/high-risk
assets and facilities insist on quarterly "end-to-end" testing of their entire fire
protection systems using an external flame simulator.
SPECTREX flame simulators emit electromagnetic radiation in a unique sequential
pattern corresponding to and recognizable as fire by specific SharpEye Flame
Detector models. This allows for testing under real fire conditions without the
associated risks of an open flame. SPECTREX flame simulators are ATEX certified
EExd for use in hazardous zones 1 and 2, and are powered by rechargeable
lithium-ion batteries. When fully charged, the flame simulator operates for at
least 100 tests without recharging.
The SPECTREX flame simulator is the only non-hazardous and safe method to
test the flame detector’s sensors, internal electronics, alarm activation software,
cleanliness of the viewing window/lens, wiring integrity, actual relay activation,
and proper functionality of any other outputs used (mA, RS-485, HART).
Warning:
The Simulator is not field-repairable due to the meticulous alignment
and calibration of the sensors and the respective circuits. Do not
attempt to modify or repair the internal circuits or change their
settings, as this will impair the system's performance and void the
SPECTREX product warranty.

2.2 Features and Benefits
•Used for maintenance and testing of flame detectors
•Ability to activate the flame detector from a distance of up to 10m
•Rechargeable battery included
•Operates at least 100 tests before battery recharge is necessary
2.3 Principles of Operation
The FS-1200 includes a halogen lamp that emits UV and IR energy. This energy
is accumulated by a reflector and directed towards the detector.
The FS-1200 does not include a laser diode. It includes only a mechanical sight,
as the user can see the spot from the simulator and should aim the spot toward
the center of the detector.
2.4 Product Certification
The Flame Simulator has the following certifications:
•ATEX, IECEx, page 14
•cCSAus, page 14
•TR CU/EAC, page 14

2.6 Certification Instructions
2.6.1 General Instructions
The equipment marking is defined as follows:
Ex II 2 G D
Ex db ib IIB + H2 T4 Gb
Ex ib tb IIIC T135°C Db
-20°C to +50°C / -4°F to +122°F
•The equipment may be used with flammable gasses and vapors with
apparatus groups IIA and IIB+H2 T4 in the ambient temperature range of -
4°F to +122°F / -20°C to +50°C.
•Inspection and maintenance of this equipment should be performed by
suitable trained personnel, in accordance with the applicable code of practice,
e.g. EN 60079-17.

•Certification of this equipment relies upon use of the following materials in its
construction:
•Enclosure: Aluminum 6061T6
•Window: Sapphire glass
•Seals: EPDM
•If the equipment is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances
(described below), then it is the responsibility of the user to take suitable
precautions (described below) to prevent the equipment from being adversely
