Fire detection and fire alarm systems - Part 32: Planning, design, installation, commissioning, use and maintenance of voice alarm systems

This Technical Specification provides guidelines for the planning, design, installation, commissioning, use, maintenance and modification of voice alarm systems in and around buildings that broadcast information for the protection of lives in a fire emergency. See EN 54 1:2011, Figure 1, item C and item M.
These guidelines cover voice alarm systems that are triggered automatically by a fire detection and fire alarm system or that are manually triggered, or both.
This Technical Specification does not apply to fire detection and fire alarm systems that only use voice sounders, bells or sounders or a combination of these.
NOTE 1   CEN/TS 54-14 provides guidelines for these systems.
This Technical Specification does not exclude the use of voice alarm systems for emergency purposes other than fire emergency.
NOTE 2   When used for emergencies other than those due to fire, it might be appropriate to modify the guidance in this Technical Specification.
This Technical Specification does not exclude the use of voice alarm systems for non-emergency purposes.

Brandmeldeanlagen - Teil 32: Projektierung, Montage, Inbetriebsetzung, Betrieb und Instandhaltung von Sprachalarmsystemen

Diese Technische Spezifikation stellt Richtlinien für die Planung, Projektierung, Montage, Inbetriebsetzung, Betrieb, Instandhaltung und Änderung von Sprachalarmanlagen (SAA)N1) innerhalb und außerhalb von Gebäuden zur Verfügung, welche Informationen zum Schutz von Leben im Brandfall übertragen. Siehe EN 54-1:2001, Bild 1, Funktionselement C und Funktionselement M.
Diese Richtlinien umfassen SAA, welche automatisch durch eine Brandmeldeanlage oder manuell oder durch beides ausgelöst werden.
Diese Technische Spezifikation gilt nicht für Brandmeldeanlagen, welche nur Sprachalarmgeber, Glocken oder Signalgeber oder eine Kombination dieser verwenden.
ANMERKUNG 1 Richtlinien für diese Anlagen werden in CEN/TS 54-14 zur Verfügung gestellt.
Diese Technische Spezifikation schließt den Betrieb von SAA für andere Alarmfälle als den Brandfall nicht aus.
ANMERKUNG 2 Sofern die Anlage für andere Alarmfälle als den Brandfall benutzt wird, kann eine Modifikation der Richtlinien dieser Technischen Spezifikation angemessen sein.
Diese Technische Spezifikation schließt den Betrieb von SAA für Zwecke, die nicht auf eine Alarmmeldung bezogen sind, nicht aus.

Systèmes de détection et d'alarme incendie - Partie 32 : Planification, conception, installation, mise en service, utilisation et maintenance des systèmes d'alarme vocale

Sistemi za odkrivanje in javljanje požara ter alarmiranje - 32. del: Načrtovanje, projektiranje, vgradnja, preverjanje, uporaba in vzdrževanje zvočnih sistemov za javljanje požara

Ta evropska tehnična specifikacija določa smernice za načrtovanje, projektiranje, vgradnjo, preverjanje, uporabo in vzdrževanje zvočnih sistemov za javljanje požara v zgradbah in okoli njih, ki oddajajo informacije za zaščito življenj v primeru požara. Glej EN 54 1:2011, slika 1, element C in element M.
Te smernice zajemajo zvočne sisteme za javljanje požara, ki jih samodejno sproži sistem za odkrivanje in javljanje požara ter alarmiranje, ki so sproženi ročno ali oboje.
Ta evropska tehnična specifikacija ne velja za sisteme za odkrivanje in javljanje požara ter alarmiranje, ki uporabljajo samo glasovne naprave, zvonce ali zvočne naprave ali njihovo kombinacijo.
OPOMBA 1 Smernice za te sisteme so navedene v standardu CEN/TS 54-14.
Ta evropska tehnična specifikacija ne zajema uporabe zvočnih sistemov za javljanje požara za druge nujne primere, razen v primeru požara.
OPOMBA 2 Če so uporabljene za druge nujne primere in ne za požar, je treba prilagoditi smernice v tej tehnični specifikaciji.
Ta evropska tehnična specifikacija ne zajema uporabe zvočnih sistemov za javljanje požara v primerih, ki niso nujni.
