FS-IR-975
Flame Simulator for Rosemount™ 975MR

To be fully secure against fire, flame detector


self-testing is not enough. According to most
local jurisdictional authorities and as required for
SIL2 compliance, you need to test and ensure the
integrity of your entire flame detection system
at least once per year. That means performing a
full system loop test from the detector, through
the wiring to the controller, and up to the
actual alarm notification. The only way to do so,
without lighting a real fire, is with an external
flame simulator.

Rosemount™ Flame Simulator

Complete End-to-End
Testing Using our Flame
The robust and reliable FS-IR-975 Flame Simulator allows
remote testing of flame detectors, which are often located in

Simulator difficult to access and/or classified hazardous areas (Zones 1


& 2, Zones 21 & 22).
The FS-IR-975 Flame Simulator is the essential complimentary
tool to the self-testing capabilities of your Rosemount™ 975MR
Multi-spectrum Infrared flame detector. It brings fire prevention Features & Benefits
safety to a higher level by giving you the ability to fully test the „„ Long-range flame detector activation – at a range up
operational readiness of your entire fire detection system: to 40 ft (12 m)
„„ Test the integrity of all the system components: all alarm „„ Reduced maintenance costs with easy access for testing
outputs, all cabling and connections and the fire alarm panel detectors, in hard to reach places, from floor/deck level
functionality. without the need for scaffolding or ladders
„„ Test clear line of sight: By using the Rosemount Flame „„ Highly portable – for hand held operation by a single
Simulator, you will ensure that no object is obstructing the operator
field of view, and that the detector’s window lens is not „„ Easy aiming using laser diode

hazardous areas
Therefore, by simulating a fire that actually triggers the detector „„ Single charge is sufficient to test up to 1,000 detectors
outputs, the model FS-IR-975 verifies the correct operation of
the 975MR detector, performs an essential end-to-end loop test
and verifies window cleanliness.

Flame Simulator at Work


The Rosemount™ flame simulator emits IR radiation in a unique pattern corresponding to, and recognizable as fire by your
Rosemount Flame Detector. This allows the detector to be tested under “real” fire conditions without the associated risks of an
open flame.

Avoids the cost of scaffolding or supports to


access the detector – able to test at distances
of up to 40 ft (12 m) from the detector
