This comprehensive course provides an in-depth overview of the functional detector testing and inspection requirements outlined in NFPA 72, the National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code. Designed for professionals in the fire detection and life safety industry, this session will cover the essential guidelines for functional testing requirements, ensuring their proper operation and compliance with national standards. The course will dive into the various types of detectors—from smoke detectors and heat detectors to carbon monoxide (CO) detectors and multi-criteria detectors—highlighting the different testing approaches each type requires to ensure they function as intended.
Key topics include:
• What is NFPA 72 and why it’s critical for fire safety systems.
• A breakdown of test and inspection requirements for fire alarm systems as specified in NFPA 72.
• Detailed exploration of functional testing methods, including specific procedures for smoke detectors, heat detectors, and CO detectors.
• The use of smoke detector testers and the role of ASD (Aspiration Smoke Detection) Systems in fire detection.
• An explanation of sensitivity testing and how to properly calibrate sensitivity testers for optimal performance.
• Best practices for testing heat detectors to verify their response to temperature changes.
• Insights into testing multi-criteria detectors that combine multiple sensing technologies.
• Other testing requirements for sound testers, battery testers, and speech intelligibilityDetails to come.

Let’s discuss the underlying problems with POTS connectivity at all levels of communication so we can better communicate with our customers, while taking a deeper dive into the technologies that are currently used to replace them. Learn how these technologies have evolved, and most importantly how some of the new entrants that have begun to flood the market, taking advantage of the POTS situation. The goal of this presentation is to get a clear understanding on what the environment looks like today, what the proper alternatives are, and what emerging technologies are being used that provide a better alternative or may cause issues in the future. During this presentation, we will compare the different technologies from antiquated POTS to the groundbreaking features of Telguard's latest Multi-carrier that enables units to harness the strengths of direct connections to the three major carriers in the US—AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile.
