The Solo 365 Smoke Detector Tester by Solo / Detectortesters is an innovative tool developed for testing the operation and response of compatible smoke detectors. Its electronic smoke-generation system delivers smoke on demand, helping reduce waste and minimise the risk of over-applying test smoke.
The tester features an automatic proximity sensor that initiates testing when positioned over a detector, an integrated LED torch for dark areas, and a clearing mode designed to reduce unwanted alarm reactivation after testing. Its lightweight, cordless design supports convenient use during routine inspection and maintenance of fire alarm systems.
The Solo 365 is suitable for fire alarm maintenance contractors, commissioning engineers, facility management teams, and fire safety service providers. Compatible extension poles can help technicians reach ceiling-mounted detectors without using a ladder where site conditions and procedures permit.
