Alarm systems - Intrusion and hold-up systems - Part 2-4: Requirements for combined passive infrared and microwave detectors

This document is for combined passive infrared and microwave detectors installed in buildings and provides for security Grades 1 to 4 (see EN 50131-1), specific or non-specific wired or wire-free detectors, and uses environmental classes I to IV (see EN 50130-5). This document does not include requirements for detectors intended for use outdoors.
The purpose of the detector is to detect the broad spectrum infrared radiation emitted by an intruder, to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned and to provide the necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion alarm system.
For a combined detector where both technologies have to be activated in order to generate an alarm condition, providing higher false alarm immunity, it is essential to meet the grade dependent requirements of this document.
For a combined detector which can be configured or operated such that each detection technology can generate an alarm condition independently, it is essential to meet the grade-dependant requirements of EN 50131-2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 when configured accordingly. Otherwise the manufacturer clearly states that the detector does not comply to this document and not to EN 50131-2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 when put into such a configuration.
It is essential that a detector fulfil all the requirements of the specified grade.
Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this document can be included in the detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions.
This document does not apply to system interconnections.

Alarmanlagen - Einbruch- und Überfallmeldeanlagen - Teil 2-4: Anforderungen an Passiv-Infrarotdualmelder und Mikrowellenmelder

Systèmes d'alarme - Systèmes d'alarme contre l'intrusion et les hold-up - Partie 2-4: Exigences pour détecteurs combinés à infrarouges passifs et à hyperfréquences

Le présent document concerne les détecteurs à infrarouges passifs installés dans les immeubles et est prévu pour les grades de sécurité 1 à 4 (voir l’EN 50131-1), les détecteurs filaires ou non filaires spécifiques ou non spécifiques, et l'utilisation des classes d'environnement I à IV (voir l’EN 50130-5). Le présent document ne comprend pas d’exigences pour les détecteurs destinés à une utilisation extérieure.
Le but du détecteur est de détecter les rayonnements infrarouges émis par un intrus dans un spectre étendu, d’émettre des signaux en hyperfréquences et d’analyser les signaux renvoyés, ainsi que de fournir l’ensemble des signaux ou messages nécessaires à utiliser par le reste du système d’alarme intrusion.
Pour un détecteur combiné où les deux technologies doivent être activées en vue de générer une condition d’alarme, ce qui offre une immunité plus élevée aux fausses alarmes, il est essentiel de satisfaire aux exigences dépendantes du grade du présent document.
Pour un détecteur combiné qui peut être configuré pour fonctionner de telle sorte que chaque technologie de détection peut générer une condition d’alarme indépendamment, il est essentiel de satisfaire aux exigences dépendantes du grade de l’EN 50131-2-2 et de l’EN 50131-2-3 lorsqu’il est configuré en conséquence. Le cas contraire, le fabricant indique clairement que le détecteur n’est conforme ni au présent document, ni à l’EN 50131-2-2 et à l’EN 50131-2-3 lorsqu’il est mis dans une telle configuration.
Il est essentiel qu'un détecteur satisfasse à toutes les exigences du grade spécifié.
Des fonctions complémentaires aux fonctions obligatoires spécifiées dans le présent document peuvent être incluses dans le détecteur, sous réserve qu'elles n'influencent pas le bon fonctionnement des fonctions obligatoires.
Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux interconnexions entre systèmes.

Introduction
This document deals with combined passive infrared and microwave detectors (to be referred to as the
detector) used as part of intrusion alarm systems installed in buildings. It includes four security grades
and four environmental classes.
The purpose of the detector is to detect the broad spectrum infrared radiation emitted by an intruder, to
emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned and to provide the necessary range
of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion alarm system.
The number and scope of these signals or messages will be more comprehensive for systems that are
specified at the higher grades.
This version of the standard contains limited requirements for Grade 4 detectors. Future revisions of the
standard are expected to include enhanced requirements for Grade 4 detectors.
This document is only concerned with the requirements and tests for the detector. Other types of
detector are covered by other documents identified as in the EN 50131-2 series.
NOTE Each country has certain regulations in regards to which part of the microwave spectrum is allowed to
be used in this application. This information can be found in ERC recommendation 70-03.

1 Scope
This document is for combined passive infrared and microwave detectors installed in buildings and
provides for security grades 1 to 4 (see EN 50131-1), specific or non-specific wired or wire-free
detectors, and uses environmental classes I to IV (see EN 50130-5). This document does not include
requirements for detectors intended for use outdoors.
The purpose of the detector is to detect the broad spectrum infrared radiation emitted by an intruder, to
emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned and to provide the necessary range
of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion alarm system.
For a combined detector where both detection technologies need to be in their activated state in order
to generate an alarm condition, the grade-dependent requirements of this document apply. For
combined detectors which can be configured or operated such that each detection technology can
generate an alarm condition independently, the grade-dependant requirements as defined in
EN 50131-2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 apply, when configured accordingly. Otherwise, it is the responsibility
of the manufacturer to clearly state that the detector does not comply to this document and not to
EN 50131-2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 when put into such a configuration.
It is essential that a detector fulfils all the requirements of the specified grade.
Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this document can be included in the
detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions.
Requirements for system interconnections are not included in this document.

This permits two methods of signalling a masking: either by the intrusion signal and fault signal, or by a
dedicated masking or message. Use of the intrusion signal and fault signal is preferable, as this requires
fewer connections between CIE and detector. If multiple events overlap there will be some signal
combinations that may be ambiguous. To overcome this ambiguity it is suggested that detectors should
not signal ‘intrusion‘ and ‘fault‘ at the same time except to indicate masking. This implies that the detector
should prioritize signals, e.g. 1 Intrusion, 2 Fault, 3 Masking.
When, in Table 1, an event may optionally generate signals or messages, they shall be as shown in this
table.
a
An independent signal or message may be provided instead.
b
Total loss of Power Supply does not apply for message based detectors.
4.2 Detection
4.2.1 Detection performance
Both detection technologies shall be in an activated state, before the alarm condition shall be generated.
The detector shall generate an intrusion signal or message when the standard or simulated walk-test
target moves at velocities and attitudes specified in Table 3. For detection across the boundary the walk-
test distance shall be 1,5 m either side of the boundary. For test “Detection within the boundary” the
walk-test distance shall be 3,0 m.

For grade 3 and 4 detectors, the intermittent movement shall consist of the SWT walking 1 m at a velocity of 1,0
-1
ms then pausing for 5 s before continuing. The sequence shall be maintained until the SWT has traversed
through the entire detection area. This constitutes one walk test. The test shall be repeated in each of the
directions shown in Figure C.3.
The detection performance tests required for a detector will depend on the coverage angle claimed.
Therefore this document differentiates between detectors with coverage angles less than or equal to
180°, such as those typically used for wall mounted applications, and detectors with coverage angles of
360° detectors intended for ceiling mounting.
4.2.2 Indication of detection
An indicator shall be provided at the detector to indicate when an intrusion signal or message has been
generated. At grades 1 and 2 this indicator shall be capable of being enabled and disabled either
remotely at Access Level 2 and/or locally enabled/disabled after removal of a cover which provides
tamper detection as described in Tables 1 and 4. At grades 3 and 4 this indicator shall be capable of
being enabled and disabled remotely at Access Level 2.

91 Introduction
92 This document deals with combined passive infrared and microwave detectors (to be referred to as
93 the detector) used as part of intrusion alarm systems installed in buildings. It includes four security
94 grades and four environmental classes.
95 The purpose of the detector is to detect the broad spectrum infrared radiation emitted by an intruder,
96 to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned and to provide the necessary
97 range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion alarm system.
98 The number and scope of these signals or messages will be more comprehensive for systems that are
99 specified at the higher grades.
100 This version of the standard contains limited requirements for grade 4 detectors. Future revisions of
101 the standard are expected to include enhanced requirements for grade 4 detectors.
102 This document is only concerned with the requirements and tests for the detector. Other types of
103 detector are covered by other documents identified as in the EN 50131-2 series.
104 NOTE Each country has certain regulations in regards to which part of the microwave spectrum is allowed to
105 be used in this application. This information can be found in ERC recommendation 70-03.

106 1 Scope
107 This document is for combined passive infrared and microwave detectors installed in buildings and
108 provides for security Grades 1 to 4 (see EN 50131-1), specific or non-specific wired or wire-free
109 detectors, and uses environmental classes I to IV (see EN 50130-5). This document does not include
110 requirements for detectors intended for use outdoors.
111 The purpose of the detector is to detect the broad spectrum infrared radiation emitted by an intruder,
112 to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned and to provide the necessary
113 range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion alarm system.
114 For a combined detector where both technologies have to be activated in order to generate an alarm
115 condition, providing higher false alarm immunity, it is essential to meet the grade dependent
116 requirements of this document.
117 For a combined detector which can be configured or operated such that each detection technology
118 can generate an alarm condition independently, it is essential to meet the grade-dependant
119 requirements of EN 50131-2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 when configured accordingly. Otherwise the
120 manufacturer clearly states that the detector does not comply to this document and not to EN 50131-
121 2-2 and EN 50131-2-3 when put into such a configuration.
122 It is essential that a detector fulfil all the requirements of the specified grade.
123 Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this document can be included in the
124 detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions.
125 This document does not apply to system interconnections.

This permits two methods of signalling a masking: either by the intrusion signal and fault signal, or by a dedicated
masking or message. Use of the intrusion signal and fault signal is preferable, as this requires fewer connections
between CIE and detector. If multiple events overlap there will be some signal combinations that may be
ambiguous. To overcome this ambiguity it is suggested that detectors should not signal ‘intrusion‘ and ‘fault‘ at the
same time except to indicate masking. This implies that the detector should prioritize signals, e.g. 1 Intrusion, 2
Fault, 3 Masking.
When, in Table 1, an event may optionally generate signals or messages, they shall be as shown in this table.
a
An independent signal or message may be provided instead.
b
Alternatively Total loss of Power Supply shall be determined by loss of communication with the detector.

210 4.2.1 Detection performance
211 Both detection technologies shall be in an activated state, before the alarm condition shall be signalled

213 The detector shall generate an intrusion signal or message when the standard or simulated walk-test
214 target moves at velocities and attitudes specified in Table 3. For detection across the boundary the
215 walk-test distance shall be 1,5 m either side of the boundary. For test “Detection within the boundary”
216 the walk-test distance shall be 3,0 m.

For Grade 3 and 4 detectors, the intermittent movement shall consist of the SWT walking 1 m at a velocity of
-1
1,0 ms then pausing for 5 s before continuing. The sequence shall be maintained until the SWT has
traversed through the entire detection area. This constitutes one walk test. The test shall be repeated in each
of the directions shown in Figure C.3.
218 The detection performance tests required for a detector will depend on the coverage angle claimed.
219 Therefore this standard differentiates between detectors with coverage angles less than or equal to
220 180°, such as those typically used for wall mounted applications, and detectors with coverage angles
221 of 360° detectors intended for ceiling mounting.
222 4.2.2 Indication of detection
223 An indicator shall be provided at the detector to indicate when an intrusion signal or message has
224 been generated. At Grades 1 and 2 this indicator shall be capable of being enabled and disabled
225 either remotely at Access Level 2 and/or locally after removal of a cover which provides tamper
226 detection as described in Tables 1 and 4. At Grades 3 and 4 this indicator shall be capable of being
227 enabled and disabled remotely at Access Level 2.
