Magnetically Aligned Release Element Simulator

This release element simulator is designed for installers of fire alarm systems.

Before installation of the cylinder by the fire department, the function of the release element can be tested with the simulator.

This version uses six magnets during two pressure pauses. By aligning the magnets,

there is a locking position and an escape position. The arrangement of the magnets automatically moves the release element simulator into the locking position after insertion into the tube. Figure 1 shows the locking position.

Note: During assembly, pay close attention to the position of the recess in the middle pressure section (see Figure 3).

If the recess is rotated 90° in the locking position, the inner part must be rotated 180° in the outer part.

For a perfect play of movement, it is recommended to sand the outer part of the inner component and the inner part of the outer component with 2400 grit sandpaper to remove printing irregularities (random seams).

Caution: The magnets must not exceed a diameter of 3 mm and a height of 8 mm; otherwise, there is a risk of deforming the printer nozzle or causing a larger defect.

Adhesive is not required; it is sufficient to press the components together with a clamp.

If adhesive is desired, the inside of the tube in the area of the edge should be wetted with superglue before pressing together.

Multicolor printing is recommended.
