Fire detection and fire alarm systems - Part 5: Heat detectors - Point heat detectors

This European Standard specifies the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point heat detectors intended for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems installed in and around buildings (see EN 54-1:2011).
This European Standard provides for the assessment of verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of point heat detectors to this EN.
For other types of heat detector, or for detectors intended for use in other environments, this standard should only be used for guidance.
Heat detectors with special characteristics and developed for specific risks are not covered by this standard.

Brandmeldeanlagen - Teil 5: Wärmemelder - Punktförmige Melder

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen, Prüfverfahren und Leistungskriterien für punktförmige Wärmemelder fest, die für den Einsatz in Brandmeldeanlagen bestimmt sind, die in und in der Nähe von Gebäuden eingebaut sind (siehe EN 54-1:2011).
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt die Bewertung und Überprüfung der Leistungsbeständigkeit (en: assessment of verification of constancy of performance, AVCP) von punktförmigen Wärmemeldern nach dieser EN.
Für andere Typen von Wärmemeldern oder für Wärmemelder, die für die Anwendung unter anderen Umge-bungsbedingungen vorgesehen sind, sollte die vorliegende Norm nur als Leitfaden angewendet werden.
Wärmemelder mit speziellen Merkmalen, die für besondere Risiken entwickelt wurden, sind nicht Gegen-stand dieser Norm.

Sistemi za odkrivanje in javljanje požara ter alarmiranje - 5. del: Toplotni javljalniki - Točkovni javljalniki

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve, preskusne metode in merila učinkovitosti za točkovne javljalnike, namenjene uporabi v sistemih za odkrivanje in javljanje požara, ki so nameščeni v zgradbah in njihovi okolici (glej standard EN 54-1:2011).
Ta evropski standard omogoča ocenjevanje v okviru preverjanja nespremenljivosti lastnosti (AVCP) točkovnih javljalnikov v skladu s tem standardom.
Za druge vrste toplotnih javljalnikov ali javljalnike, ki so namenjeni uporabi v drugih okoljih, se ta standard lahko uporablja samo kot vodilo.
Toplotni javljalniki s posebnimi lastnostmi, ki so izdelani za uporabo v posebnih tveganih okoliščinah, niso zajeti v tem standardu.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for
point heat detectors intended for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems installed in and
around buildings (see EN 54-1:2011).
This European Standard provides for the assessment of verification of constancy of performance
(AVCP) of point heat detectors to this EN.
For other types of heat detector, or for detectors intended for use in other environments, this
standard should only be used for guidance.
Heat detectors with special characteristics and developed for specific risks are not covered by
this standard.

3 Terms, definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions and those given in
EN 54-1:2011 apply.
3.1.1
typical application temperature
temperature that an installed point heat detector can be expected to experience for long periods
of time in the absence of a fire condition
Note 1 to entry: This temperature is deemed to be 29 °C below the minimum static response
temperature, according to the category marked on the point heat detector, as specified in Table 1.
3.1.2
maximum application temperature
maximum temperature that an installed point heat detector can be expected to experience, even
for short periods of time, in the absence of a fire condition
Note 1 to entry: This temperature is deemed to be 4 °C below the minimum static response
temperature, according to the category marked on the point heat detector, as specified in Table 1.
3.1.3
static response temperature
temperature at which the point heat detector would produce an alarm signal if subjected to a
vanishingly small rate of rise of temperature
−1
Note 1 to entry: Rates of rise of temperature of approximately 0,2 K min are normally found to be
suitable for measuring this, however lower rates can be required in some instances (see 5.3).

Detectors are categorized by one or more of the following heat response categories: A1, A2, B, C,

Manufacturers may optionally give additional information concerning the type of response

exhibited by the detector, by adding the suffix S or R to the above categories . Detectors, which
are marked with the letter S or R as a suffix to the category marking, shall be tested in
accordance with the applicable test, specified in 5.4.1 or 5.4.2, and shall meet the requirements
of that test, in addition to the tests of Clause 5. Addition of a suffix shall be regarded as creating a
new category.
4.2 Operational reliability
4.2.1 Position of heat sensitive elements
The heat sensitive element(s) or at least part of it, except elements with auxiliary functions (e.g.
characteristic correctors), shall be at a distance ≥ 15 mm from the mounting surface of the point
heat detector. To confirm this, the point heat detector shall be tested in accordance with 5.2.1.
4.2.2 Individual alarm indication
4.2.2.1 Category A1, A2, B, C or D point heat detectors shall be provided with an integral red
visual indicator, by which the individual point heat detector, which released an alarm, can be
identified, until the alarm condition is reset. Where other conditions of the point heat detector
can be visually indicated, they shall be clearly distinguishable from the alarm indication, except
when the point heat detector is switched into a service mode. For detachable point heat
detectors the indicator may be integral with the base or the point heat detector head. The visual
indicator shall be visible from a distance of 6 m directly below the point heat detector, in an

Detectors, with a suffix S to their category, do not respond below the minimum static response temperature,
applicable to their categories (see Table 1), even at high rates of rise of air temperature. Detectors with a suffix R to
their category, incorporate a rate-of-rise characteristic, which meets the response time requirements (see Table 4) for
high rates of rise of air temperature even when starting at air temperatures substantially below the typical application
temperature.

accordance with 5.2.2.1
4.2.2.2 Category E, F or G point heat detectors shall be provided with either an integral red
indicator, or with another means for locally indicating the alarm status of the point heat
detector. To confirm this, the point heat detector shall be assessed in accordance with 5.2.2.2
