Fire-lite TL-1055 Ir Test Lamp Heat Detector

Product Description

The FIRE-LITE TL-1055 is an infrared test lamp designed for field testing of heat detectors. It provides a controlled IR light source that allows fire alarm technicians to verify detector response without activating a live fire condition. The TL-1055 is a purpose-built service tool used during installation verification, periodic testing, and troubleshooting of compatible fixed-temperature and rate-of-rise heat detector units. Its compact lamp form factor makes it practical for use on elevated ceilings and in confined spaces where detector heads are typically mounted.

The TL-1055 is intended for use by licensed fire alarm technicians and fire protection contractors performing inspection, testing, and maintenance work on commercial and residential fire alarm systems. It is specifically referenced for testing the FS18X and FS20X series heat detectors. This tool supports compliance with NFPA 72 testing requirements that mandate periodic functional verification of all detection devices on a fire alarm system.
