Model 3140-01
Flame Detector Tester
Description
The Model 3140 simulates a UV/IR flame
signature by emitting a steady state UV signal
and a modulated IR signal at a flicker frequency
of 5 to 10 Hz. This simulation will cause the
Model 3100 flame detector to report an alarm.
Like the Model 3100 detector the 3140 is
designed for use in Hazardous environments.
Specifications
Sensitivity
Typically alarms a 3100 in 3
seconds when viewed on-axis @
2-15 feet
The Model 3140 is intended for use in those
applications where regular testing, as required
by NFPA 72, is performed or where the use of
a real fire is impractical. The 3140 is rated over
a wide operating temperature range for those
applications where Flammable materials may
be present.

Basic Operation
Hold the Tester between 2 and 20 feet from the
Detector to be tested. Aim the Tester at the
Detector and press the button. The Red LED
Generates an Industry Standard UV/IR
Signature for use with a variety of devices.
Uses commercially available 9-volt batteries will flash on and off and after approximately 3
(not a proprietary power module).
seconds the detector will report an alarm. Note
that the detector must be in normal operation
(see the Detector's User Manual).
