1000 Series Test Tunnels
The 1000 Series Compact Fire Detector Test Tunnels are based on the same technology as our reference tunnel, the 2800. They are, however, smaller, bench-top designs. The 1000 series test tunnels are ideally suited for performance testing to EN54-7 and EN54-5, for factory production control, and can also be used in test and R&D laboratories.
- Smaller bench-top design
- Integrated control electronics
- Test to EN54-7, EN54-29, EN14604 and EN54-5
- Perfect for R&D pre-compliance testing or low-volume production testing
- Comprehensive technical support
- Enables manufacturers to comply with AVCP requirements
- Full training, calibration, service and maintenance packages

The following variants are available in the 1000 Series:
1100 smoke detector test tunnel: This designed for testing optical smoke detectors to EN54-7 or EN14604 at room temperature.
1400 combined smoke/heat detector test tunnel: This is designed for testing to EN54-7 and EN14604 from 250C to 550C, and to EN54-5 with a starting temperature range from 250C to 550C (as for 1300).
1800 combined smoke/heat detector test tunnel with cooling: This is designed for testing to EN54-7 and EN14604 between 00C and 550C, and to EN54-5 with a starting temperature range from 50C to 550C (as for 1700).
