SDi introduces Scorpion – an innovative solution for functionally testing any hard-to-access smoke detector, whether it’s a point detector or aspirating smoke detection (ASD) system

Detectors in hard to access locations are often costly to test and maintain. They require additional equipment, potentially the presence of a third-party company and often more than one technician. All of which takes time and money to arrange. Installing Scorpion dramatically reduces the time taken to test hard to access detectors by allowing these detectors to be easily tested as part of the routine test during the technician’s visit. This eliminates the need for a return visit after hours and saves the time it would have taken to directly access the detector.
