Description
SOLO101-001
The Solo 101 fibreglass extension pole is professional fire alarm testing equipment designed to help engineers safely access detectors installed at height during routine fire alarm maintenance, inspection, and commissioning.
The Solo range is a modular fire alarm testing system that allows engineers to combine detector testers, extension poles, and accessories depending on installation requirements. Used widely across commercial and industrial environments, the Solo 101 provides safe access to smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide detectors installed on ceilings or other high-level locations. It forms a core part of the wider range of equipment used by engineers during routine inspection and maintenance of fire detection systems.

Key Features of the Solo 101 Extension Pole
-
Optimized Reach: Provides an additional 1.13 metres of reach.
-
Lightweight & Durable: Manufactured from high-quality fibreglass (GRP), offering a lightweight and non-hazardous solution for routine professional use.
-
Non-Conductive Material: Built from non-conductive materials to enhance safety during testing.
-
Modular "Click" Design: Features a secure locking button mechanism to ensure all tools and additional poles remain firmly in place during use.
-
Ladder-Free Access: Enables ground-level access to ceiling-mounted detectors, significantly reducing the need for ladders or temporary access equipment.
-
Universal Compatibility: Fully compatible with all Solo smoke, heat, and CO testers, as well as the Solo 200 detector removal tool.
Compatibility and System Suitability
The Solo 101 is designed to work seamlessly with the following equipment:
-
Smoke Testers: Solo 330, Solo 332, and Solo 365.
-
Heat Testers: Solo 461 and Solo 423/424.
-
Removal Tools: Solo 200 Detector Removal Tool.
-
Multi-Stimulus Testers: Testifire XTR2 & Testifire 2000 series.
Expanding Reach: The Solo 101 can be combined with a Solo 100 telescopic pole to reach a maximum working height of 9 metres. For safety and stability, it is recommended that no more than 3 x Solo 101 extension poles are used in a single configuration.
Maintenance & Safety Information
-
High Voltage Warning: Solo poles are not specified for use in high-voltage areas.
-
Vertical Operation: It is recommended to stand directly under the detector (pole vertical) to maintain control and ensure maximum reach.
-
Cleaning: Solo poles can be wiped clean using a damp cloth with only water or mild detergents.
-
Storage: When not in use, poles should always be returned to a protective storage bag, such as the Solo 610.
-
Warranty: Solo poles are covered by a limited lifetime warranty, though accidental damage or user modification will invalidate this.
