Fire detection and fire alarm systems - Part 10: Flame detectors - Point detectors

This European Standard specifies requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point-type, flame detectors that detect the radiation from the flames generated during the combustion of carbon based materials operate using radiation from a hydrocarbon flame for use in fire detection systems installed in and around buildings.
Flame detectors having special characteristics suitable for the detection of specific fire risks are not covered by this standard e.g. flame detectors that are used solely to detect metal fires or hydrogen fires (although the standard may be used as guidance in assessing such products). The performance requirements for any additional functions are beyond the scope of this standard (e.g. additional features or enhanced functionality for which this standard does not define a test or assessment method).

Brandmeldeanlagen - Teil 10: Flammenmelder - Punktförmige Melder

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen, Prüfverfahren und Leistungsmerkmale für punktförmige Flammenmelder fest, die auf die Strahlung einer Kohlenwasserstoffflamme ansprechen und die in Brandmeldeanlagen eingesetzt werden, die in Gebäuden und in deren Nähe montiert sind.
Flammenmelder mit besonderen Eigenschaften, die für die Erkennung besonderer Brandrisiken geeignet sind, werden nicht von dieser Norm behandelt (für die Bewertung solcher Produkte kann die vorliegende Norm aber als Leitfaden angewendet werden). Die Leistungsanforderungen an alle zusätzlichen Funktionen liegen nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm (z. B. zusätzliche Merkmale oder erweiterte Funktionalität, für die in der vorliegenden Norm keine Prüfung oder kein Bewertungsverfahren festgelegt ist).

Systèmes de détection et d'alarme incendie - Partie 10: Détecteurs de flamme - Détecteurs ponctuels

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences, les méthodes d'essai et les critères de performance applicables aux détecteurs ponctuels de flamme qui fonctionnent en utilisant les rayonnements de la flamme d'hydrocarbure et sont utilisés dans les systèmes de détection incendie installés dans les bâtiments et autour de ceux-ci.
Les détecteurs de flamme ayant des caractéristiques spéciales adaptées à la détection de risques d'incendie spécifiques ne sont pas couverts par la présente norme (bien que la norme puisse servir de guide dans l'évaluation de produits de ce type). Les exigences de performance relatives à toute autre fonction ne relèvent pas du domaine d'application de la présente norme (par exemple, des caractéristiques supplémentaires ou une fonctionnalité améliorée pour lesquelles la présente norme ne définit pas d'essai ou de méthode d'évaluation).

Introduction
The purpose of a flame detector is to warn person(s) within or in the vicinity of a building of the
occurrence of a fire emergency in order to enable such person(s) to take appropriate measures.
Flame detectors respond to the flickering ultra-violet or infra-red signal produced from burning
hydrocarbons. Flame detectors might be better suited to applications where heat and smoke sources
are present e.g. aircraft hangars or oil rigs.

This European Standard allows manufacturers to specify the range of the flame detector in terms of
the distance over which it can detect a flaming fire. Four ranges are defined and these are tested by
measuring the response of the flame detector to test fires at a fixed minimum and at the maximum
range as declared by the manufacturer. As contaminants on the window(s) could inhibit the
transmission of the radiation from a flame to the sensor(s) a window monitoring facility test has been
introduced, as an option with requirements, in order to check whether the function operates.

This European Standard gives common requirements for the construction and robustness of flame
detectors as well as for their performance under climatic, mechanical and electrical interference
conditions which are likely to occur in the service environment. Flame detectors are classified in one
of two application environment types, i.e. Type A and Type B. More severe climatic conditions are
applied to devices that are primarily intended for outdoor applications (Type B) than those primarily
intended for indoor applications (Type A)
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point-type,
flame detectors that operate using radiation from a hydrocarbon flame for use in fire detection
systems installed in and around buildings.
Flame detectors having special characteristics suitable for the detection of specific fire risks are not
covered by this standard (although the standard may be used as guidance in assessing such
products). The performance requirements for any additional functions are beyond the scope of this
standard (e.g. additional features or enhanced functionality for which this standard does not define a
test or assessment method).
