Introducing a new product range of testing equipment to the Eurotech offering. The Solo and Testifire ranges offer modernised technologies that provide increased benefits to fire safety professionals. Find out more about the new range of testing devices below.

Solo Range

Solo 365 Smoke Detector Tester

The new Solo 365 Smoke Detector Tester combines new technology and improved performance into the hands of the user. Smoke generation uses a proximity sensor, making the device quicker to test, faster to clear, and almost impossible to over apply. It offers everything industry experts require from the popular Solo brand, pairing it with the latest technology and covering it with a modern, slim-line design. 

Key Features:

• ‘Auto-start’ proximity sensor – faster testing, less smoke waste.
• Auto-LED torch – Allows simple testing of detectors in dark areas.
• Slim-line design – Easier access to detectors in confined spaces.
• Clearing mode – Eliminates re-alarms, increasing productivity.
• Delayed start mode – For non-standard detectors and ASD systems.

The detector friendly smoke, generated by non-pressurised capsules, is compatible with a wide range of detectors and provides improved performance at lower temperatures. The Solo 365 model in particular is also 15% lighter than the traditional Solo dispenser – supporting more efficient movement around site and when testing, lessening the strain on the user.
