Smoke & Heat Detector Testing & Removal Kit – Testifire XTR2
The Testifire's XTR2 kit is a high-performance solution for functional testing of fire alarm detection units, enabling height-safe operation for detectors positioned up to 9 metres high.
This comprehensive testing kit simplifies compliance and maintenance procedures by combining smoke and heat testing in a single unit with automated digital reporting functions.
Accurate Test Outputs
Using specialised cartridges, the device emits smoke to simulate real fire conditions. Heat tests are adjustable, with options for routine or intensive heat outputs. These tests mirror genuine fire triggers to verify that detectors activate as intended.
Multi-Mode Testing Functions
The XTR2 offers users a choice of modes, including:
- Standard smoke or heat test
- High heat mode for specialist devices
- Dual test (smoke + heat)
- Step-by-step smoke then heat testing
- Delayed activation for hands-free operation
Once activated, the device detects the detector’s LED response and logs whether the test passed. This automatic result capture, while the built-in clearing function clears lingering smoke or heat from the detector.
Digital Reporting & Connectivity
The XTR2 is equipped with digital connectivity. Engineers can upload results directly on-site, enabling improved record keeping.
Clients receive audit-friendly reports via download or email, reducing admin tasks.
Safe Height Access
The kit includes a multi-section reach pole, capable of testing and removing detector more info heads from up to 9m. A universal removal tool enables quick removal for servicing, all without the use of ladders. The provided carry bag makes site-to-site travel easier.
Engineer-Friendly Design
Powered by a long-life battery, the unit also includes a integrated flashlight to assist with testing in poorly lit ceilings. The device is built for daily fieldwork, making it ideal for contractors and fire safety teams.
Summary
The Testifire XTR2 kit reduces manual workload during smoke and heat detector testing. It allows engineers to test with minimal disruption, while reporting becomes automated. This system offers confidence in detection systems without the need for ladders or manual logging.
