Introduction
1 Introduction
To comply with local standards and jurisdictional authorities, perform end-to-end loop
testing of fire protection alarm systems, including detectors, periodically. Many safety
authorities and plant managers of high value/high risk assets and facilities insist on
quarterly end-to-end testing of their entire fire protection systems using an external flame
simulator.
Rosemount Flame Simulators emit electromagnetic radiation in a unique sequential
pattern corresponding to and recognizable as fire by the specific Rosemount 975 Flame
Detector. This allows the detector to be tested under real fire conditions without the
associated risk of an open flame.
Rosemount Flame Simulators are ATEX certified EExd for use in Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21,
and Zone 22 hazardous areas and are powered by rechargeable lithium ion batteries.
When fully charged, the Flame Simulator will operate for at least 1,000 tests without
recharging.
The Rosemount Flame Simulator is the only non-hazardous and safe method to test the
flame detector's sensors, internal electronics, alarm activation software, cleanliness of the
viewing window/lens, wiring integrity, actual relay activation, and proper functionality of
any other outputs used (mA, RS-485, or HART®).
1.1 Flame simulator compatibility with flame detector models
The Rosemount FS-HR-975 Flame Simulator is compatible with the following:
Table 1-1: Flame simulator compatibility
Simulator Part number Compatible with
Multi-spectrum infrared hydrogen flame
simulator
FS-HR-975 Rosemount 975HR
1.2 Features and benefits
• Used for maintenance and testing of flame detectors.
• Can activate the flame detector from a distance of 39.4 ft (12 m).
• Includes rechargeable battery.
• Operates at least 1,000 tests before the battery must be recharged.
1.3 Principles of operation
The Rosemount FS-HR-975 emits infrared energy, which is filtered to emit
electromagnetic radiation in unique sequential patterns, corresponding to and
recognizable as fire by the Rosemount 975HR Flame Detector.

NOTICE
Store the device in a suitable container to prevent possible damage during handling.
2.2 Operate
Prerequisites
WARNING
Hazardous areas
Do not open this device for any reason in a hazardous area.
WARNING
Explosion
Do not open when an explosive atmosphere is present.
Only use replaceable battery pack Rosemount 00975-0900-0012.
NOTICE
Disconnect external devices, such as fire alarms and automatic extinguishing systems,
before performing maintenance.
Procedure
1. Verify that you are using the correct simulator that fits the tested detector per Table
1-1.
2. Verify that you are at the correct distance from the detector according to the type
of detector and the detector sensitivity.
See Table 6-1.
3. Aim the flame simulator using the mechanical sight towards the center of the
detector. Push the Activate button and then use the halogen beam for fine
adjustment towards the center of the detector.
Once the trigger is pressed, with an initial two second delay, the equipment will operate
for a maximum of 60 seconds, following which the equipment cannot be operated for a
minimum period of 30 seconds.

Reference Manual
2.3 Simulator status
For the first five seconds, the laser defines the simulator status.
Normal status
When switching to normal status, the equipment will operate for a maximum period of 60
seconds, following which the equipment cannot be operated for a minimum period of 30
seconds.
Fault status
When the battery is lower than 12.3 Vdc the lamp won't be activated.
2.4 Charge the battery
This device uses lithium ion batteries as a rechargeable power source. When the batteries
are fully charged, under normal conditions (room temperature), the device operates at
least 1,000 times without restarting. When the voltage from the batteries is lower than
the required operational level, the device will not operate.
To charge the battery:
Procedure
1. Place the device on a table in a safe area not exceeding 104 °F (40 °C).
2. Release the locking screw.

3. Unscrew the battery compartment cover counter-clockwise.
See Figure 1-1.
4. Unscrew the locking disc clockwise using a 1.5 mm hex key.
See Figure 2-1.
5. Pull out the battery from the flame simulator.
WARNING
The battery must be charged only after being removed from the flame simulator.
6. Connect the battery to the charger. Verify that the charger is the one supplied with
the flame simulator.
7. Let the battery charge for a maximum of two to three hours.
8. Disconnect the charger.
9. Insert the battery into the flame simulator.
The LED will flash twice to indicate that the battery is fully charged.
