PERFORMANCE TEST

Testing of a completed installation can be done with a 100W light bulb or a photo flash. Use an
incandescent lamp as this has light and heat radiation (infrared) that closely matches the sensitivity
characteristic of the point sensor. The point sensor has its maximum sensitivity at a wave length of
850 nm which is in the infrared (invisible) range. In the middle of the visible region of 550 nm the
sensitivity is down to approximately 50%. This means that both light and heat radiation from an
arc contribute to the point sensor current that triggers the D0920.
If a photo flash unit is used it is essential that it is set to the 'MANUAL' mode. If it is used in
'AUTO' mode, the light emission will be dependent on random reflections and will change with the
position from which it is fired.
A test-record form is provided for recording the date and the final results of the performance tests.
The following system tests are to be conducted by qualified personnel:
a) Switch on the supply voltage to the D0920. Ensure that the green POWER LED is on, and
press the RESET button to clear an existing trip.
b) Move the switch to the TEST position. This will allow testing of the D0920 and point sensors
without causing the trip coil to trip. Relay K2 (terminals 11 and 12) will be closed when the D0920
is in test mode.
c) Trip the D0920 by moving a light source close to a point sensor. When a trip occurs, the red
TRIPPED LED will be on. Relay K1 (terminals 9 and 10) will be closed when the D0920 has
tripped.
d) Press the RESET button to reset the D0920. Relay K1 (terminals 9 and 10) will open.
