Solo Test Kits – Frequently Asked Questions

❓ Q: What types of Solo Test Kits are available?

A: Fire Trade Supplies offers kits for smoke-only, heat-only, smoke and heat combined, CO testing, and full kits that include detector removal tools. Each kit is designed to meet different site requirements and testing frequencies.


❓ Q: Can Solo kits test detectors at height?

A: Yes. Solo kits include telescopic poles (such as the Solo 100, 101, or 108) which allow testing up to 9 metres high — safely and without the need for ladders.


❓ Q: Are Solo kits compatible with all major fire detector brands?

A: Yes. Solo kits are designed to be compatible with most major detector manufacturers, including Gent, Apollo, Hochiki, Honeywell, and many others.


❓ Q: What consumables do Solo kits use?

A: Solo testers use a range of consumables, including:

  • Smoke: Solo A5, A10, or A10S aerosols

  • CO: Solo C3 cartridges

  • Heat: Battery-powered Solo 461 or mains-powered Solo 424

All consumables are replaceable and available individually.


❓ Q: Do Solo kits meet UK fire safety standards?

A: Yes. All Solo testing equipment complies with key fire safety regulations, including BS 5839 and EN 54, making them suitable for regular fire alarm testing across the UK.


❓ Q: What is the best Solo kit for heat detector testing?

A: The Solo 823 kit offers a full smoke and cordless heat testing setup with up to 9 metres of reach. If you only need to test heat detectors, the Solo 461 is a lightweight, cordless heat tester that’s ideal for fast and flexible use.


❓ Q: Do I need special training to use Solo kits?

A: No formal training is required. However, engineers should be familiar with safe aerosol use, fire safety protocols, and correct operation of telescopic poles for height access.


❓ Q: What's the difference between Solo A5, A10, and A10S?

A:

  • Solo A5: Flammable, pressurised aerosol — widely used but transport-restricted

  • Solo A10: Non-flammable and safer for use in hospitals and international shipping

  • Solo A10S: A10 performance in a Solo-branded format for optimal dispenser fit

All are compatible with Solo 330 and 332 dispensers.


❓ Q: Can I use the Solo 330 with any aerosol?

A: Yes. The Solo 330 smoke dispenser works with Solo A5, A10, and A10S. Just ensure correct alignment and compatibility with the cup adapter to deliver smoke effectively.


❓ Q: Is there a cordless option for heat testing?

A: Yes. The Solo 461 is completely cordless and battery-powered, providing a clean and efficient way to test fixed-temperature and rate-of-rise detectors without trailing cables.
