Abstract
The present invention relates to a fire detector testing device for installation with, or retrofitting to, a fire detector. An aerosol generator in fluid connection with a liquid reservoir directs an aerosol towards a detector element of the fire detector in order to test whether smoke entry has been compromised. The liquid reservoir of the present invention may be installed within a base of the detector, between the base and the detector, or in the detector itself.
