1 100 °C after five (5) minutes (fir...view more

IEC 60695-6-2:2018 provides a summary of commonly used test methods for the assessment of smoke obscuration. It presents a brief summary of static and dynamic test methods in common use, either as international standards or national or industry standards. It includes special observations on their relevance to electrotechnical products and their materials and to fire scenarios, and gives recommendations on their use. This basic safety publication is primarily intended for use by technical committ...view more

This International Standard presents a range of sampling and chemical analytical methods suitable for
the analysis of individual chemical species in fire atmospheres. The procedures relate to the analysis of
samples extracted from an apparatus or effluent flow from a fire test rig or physical fire test model and
are not concerned with the specific nature of the fire test.
This International Standard doesn’t cover aerosols (detailed in Reference [3]) and FTIR technique
(detailed in Reference...view more

This International Standard provides a means for estimating the lethal toxic potency of the fire effluent
produced from a material while exposed to the specific combustion conditions of a physical fire model.
The lethal toxic potency values are specifically related to the fire model selected, the exposure scenario
and the material evaluated.
Lethal toxic potency values associated with 30-min exposures of rats are predicted using calculations
which employ combustion atmosphere analytical dat...view more

ISO 15928-4:2017 sets out a method for describing the fire safety performance of houses. It covers user needs, provides performance descriptions, and outlines evaluation processes. It includes the description of relevant parameters for early warning, fire suppression, fire containment, means of escape, control of structural behaviour, and emission and spread of fire effluent. ISO 15928-4:2017 is intended for use in the evaluation of the design and construction of houses, in the international tra...view more

This European Standard applies to natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilators (NSHEV) operating as part of smoke and heat exhaust systems (NSHEVS), placed on the market. This standard specifies requirements and gives test methods for natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilators which are intended to be installed in smoke and heat control systems in buildings.

This European Standard specifies the general requirements for the minimum quality level of service provided by companies as well as the competencies of their involved staff charged with the planning, design, installation, commissioning, verification, handover or maintenance of fire safety systems and/or security systems, regardless whether these services are provided on-site or remotely.
This European Standard is applicable to services for fire safety systems and/or security systems, which are ...view more

ISO 16852:2016 specifies the requirements for flame arresters that prevent flame transmission when explosive gas-air or vapour-air mixtures are present. It establishes uniform principles for the classification, basic construction and information for use, including the marking of flame arresters, and specifies test methods to verify the safety requirements and determine safe limits of use.
This International Standard is valid for pressures ranging from 80 kPa to 160 kPa and temperatures ranging ...view more

ISO 16312-1:2016 provides technical criteria and guidance for evaluating physical fire models (i.e. laboratory combustion devices and operating protocols) used in effluent toxicity studies for obtaining data on the effluent from products and materials under fire conditions relevant to life safety.[9] Relevant analytical methods, calculation methods, bioassay procedures and prediction of the toxic effects of fire effluents can be referenced in ISO 19701, ISO 19702, ISO 19703, ISO 19706 and ISO 13...view more

This European Standard specifies the products characteristics of powered smoke and heat control ventilators (fans) intended to be used as part of a powered smoke and heat control ventilation system in construction works.
It provides test and assessment methods of the characteristics and the compliance criteria of the test assessment results.
This European Standard applies to the following:
a)   fans for smoke and heat control ventilation;
b)   impulse/jet fans for smoke and heat control ven...view more

This European Standard provides guidance and rules to notified bodies (for fire dampers) to allow them to produce/validate an extended field of application report for fire dampers. This standard identifies the parameters that affect the fire resistance of dampers. It also identifies the factors that need to be considered when deciding whether, or by how much, the parameter can be extended when contemplating the fire resistance performance of an untested, or untestable variation in the constructi...view more

This European Standard specifies a test method for determining the ability of a vertical protective membrane, when used as a fire resistant barrier, to contribute to the fire resistance (loadbearing capacity R) of loadbearing vertical structural building members fabricated from steel, concrete, steel/concrete composites or timber. The method described is applicable to any type of vertical protective membrane, which can be associated with a separate bracing membrane.
The vertical protective memb...view more

This European Standard defines requirements for running capability under fire conditions which are applicable to passenger carrying railway rolling stock.
