The Edwards range of detector test and service equipment allows the user to rapidly and easily remove or test practically all smoke and heat detectors. Lightweight and rugged materials ensure long life and allow servicing up to heights of 9 m. The tools have an integrated design providing a complete solution with the minimum number of components.

All the test and removal tools fit to lightweight, strengthened, fibreglass poles. The poles are non conductive for safe operation. The telescopic pole extends from 1.3 m to 4.5 m in four sections, and up to three 1.2 m extension poles can be added for maximum reach. A stylish canvas carry bag is available to hold and protect all the equipment.

The touch sensitive aerosol dispenser is also on a swing frame. The robust, injection-moulded design allows it to withstand the rigours of everyday use. It allows the test gas canister to be pre-pressed so that only a small upward pressure is needed to release the gas. The transparent cup allows the user to see the illuminated LED of the activated detector. The dispenser and patented diaphragm conserves the aerosol, and detector testing is efficient and fast using a minimum amount of test gas.

The test aerosol is the result of an extensive two year research programme providing the most efficient and safest way to test both ion and photo smoke detectors. With a minimum impact to health, safety and the environment, the non-toxic, non-flammable particles allow fast response and clearing times and leaves smallest amount of residue. No damage to the detector plastic and components is also ensured.

The TH010 is a 230 VAC, mains operated heat detector test tool on a swing frame with transparent cup. This tester may be used to test temperature detectors after installation, during commissioning and maintenance.
