A testing device for testing infrared OFDs is provided. The testing device may comprise a body, an infrared source, a controller and a user input. The infrared source may be housed with the body. The controller may be operatively coupled to the infrared source. The controller may also be integral to the infrared source. The user input may be operatively coupled to at least one of the controller and the infrared source. The testing device may be configured to produce infrared emissions to simulate flaming fire.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods controlling testing optical fire detectors

An integral testing system for testing OFDs is provided. The OFD may comprise a body, a detector, and an infrared source. The detector and the infrared source may be housed with the body. The infrared source may be configured to generate emissions having one or more infrared wavelengths that are detectable by the detector. The infrared source may be configured to produce infrared emissions to simulate flaming fire.
