Smoke detector sensitivity testers i

Hi All, I’m new to this forum and just wondering what type of tester you are using to test the sensitivity of smoke detectors. We are currently using a Trutest. We are looking to purchase a new sensitivity tester and just wondering what everyone else is using.

Thanks for any input you may have.

Unfortunately in my experience Trutest is the option… Sensitivity testing is a pain in the ass!

To add - I’ve used the Gemini before, but it’s a pain in the ass to lug around.

We just use 2, as we only really see 2 different types. We have the System Sensor MOD400R sensitivity meter, and the I3 one. We also have a magnet for the Edwards C2M-PDCs smokes. The rest we can get sensitivity readings from the FACP.
