TYCO
FLAME VISION
WT300
WALK TEST TOOL
BASEEFA07ATEX0224
The Tyco FlameVision WT300 is a handheld walk test tool designed specifically for functional testing of FlameVision flame detectors without the need to generate a real flame source. Used within shipboard fire alarm and detection systems, this tool allows engineers and safety personnel to verify detector response quickly and safely during routine maintenance, commissioning, or periodic inspections. Its role in confirming detector operability makes it an essential instrument for maintaining the integrity of a vessel’s fire detection infrastructure in line with onboard safety requirements.
Key Features
✓ Designed to simulate the appropriate optical signal required to trigger FlameVision flame detectors during walk testing, enabling non-destructive functional verification.
✓ Carries the BASEEFA07ATEX0224 certification reference, indicating suitability for use in hazardous area environments subject to applicable classification and zoning requirements.
✓ Compatible with Tyco FlameVision series flame detectors; broader panel or system compatibility is subject to confirmation based on the specific installation configuration.
✓ Handheld and portable design supports efficient single-technician testing across multiple detector locations, reducing time and disruption during scheduled maintenance rounds.
✓ Supports compliance with periodic fire detection system testing requirements; specific test intervals and procedures should follow the vessel’s approved maintenance schedule and flag state guidance.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial vessels where flame detectors are installed as part of the fixed fire detection system.
✓ Pump rooms, cargo handling areas, and other potentially hazardous spaces on tankers and offshore support vessels requiring ATEX-rated testing equipment.
✓ Commissioning and functional testing activities carried out by service engineers during newbuild outfitting or dry-dock maintenance periods.
✓ Routine periodic testing of flame detector installations on naval auxiliaries, research vessels, and passenger ships with dedicated fire safety systems.
✓ Offshore platforms and FPSOs where Tyco FlameVision detectors are deployed and regular operability checks are mandated by safety management procedures.
