Aerosol smoke testers are an important means to check the functionality and effectiveness of point-type smoke detectors. They produce particles with characteristics similar to that of smoke without any flammability. Also, help in checking whether smoke is able to enter the smoke detector. These smoke testers are usually in the form of aerosol smoke sprays – contained inside canisters.

Some of the most significant things to consider while selecting the right aerosol smoke detector testers are as follows:

Correct chemical ingredients – the type and combination of chemicals used in aerosol sprays are of utmost importance. As they ensure that there is no damage to the smoke detector or the surroundings while the testing process. Ingredients extracted from silicon tend to linger or attach to the surrounding areas and consumers should be wary of the presence of silicon-related chemicals in aerosol smoke sprays.

Compliance with environmental regulations – smoke aerosol sprays are produced using chemicals such as HFCs and hydrocarbons, thus making it necessary to check for compliance with environmental and safety regulations. Sprays made with the latter tend to be on the economical side, but are also flammable and can pose a high risk to health and the environment. HFCs, on the other hand, are non-flammable but considered a bit more expensive.

Cost-effectiveness – achieving value for money is also an important factor as successful tests should be able to be performed with the least amount of aerosol discharge, which determines how cost-effective the spray is.

The Solo A5 aerosol spray is a smoke tester that is approved worldwide and is extensively used for smoke detector testing. These sprays are highly useful and cost-effective and include as many as 300 sprays in a 250ml canister. solo A5 sprays also do not have any fixed shelf life – and can well be stored and used for a considerably longer period of time.
