  2. Non-Flammable Surface: Prepare a stable, non-flammable surface where the smoke pellet will be placed during ignition and burning. This could be a metal plate, concrete, or ceramic tile.
  3. Ignition Source: Have a match or lighter readily available for ignition.
  4. Equip de seguretat: Consider wearing gloves and eye protection, especially if working in confined spaces or handling multiple pellets.

  1. Remove Pellet: Carefully remove one smoke pellet from its packaging.
  2. Encesa: Hold the pellet by one end and invert the open end over a match or lighter flame. Apply the flame directly to the open end until the pellet begins to smolder and produce smoke.
  3. Col·locació: Once ignited, immediately place the smoldering pellet onto the prepared non-flammable surface in the desired testing location.
  4. Observació: Observe the smoke's movement to identify leaks, airflow patterns, or other anomalies. Each pellet will burn for approximately 75 seconds, producing smoke for up to 600 cubic feet.
  5. Eliminació: After the pellet has completely burned out and cooled, dispose of the residue safely according to local regulations. Ensure it is no longer hot before handling.

Nota: For best results in leak detection, it may be necessary to seal off certain sections of the system being tested to concentrate the smoke.
