Overview

EN 54-11:2001/A1:2005 is a CEN European standard (Amendment A1, Nov 2005) for manual call points used in fire detection and fire alarm systems. The amendment adds the informative Harmonization Annex ZA to align the standard with the EU Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC). It defines the scope, conformity procedures and documentation needed for placing manual call points on the European market and supports CE marking for products intended for fire safety.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and intended use: Manual call points for fire safety applications covered by Clause 1 and Annex ZA.
• Annex ZA (Harmonization): Identifies essential characteristics relevant to the Construction Products Directive and maps them to the standard’s clauses for conformity assessment.
• Attestation of conformity: Specifies the required conformity system (System 1 as per the mandate) and the roles of manufacturer and notified product certification bodies.
• Type testing: Products must undergo documented type testing to demonstrate compliance with the applicable clauses; prior relevant tests may be accepted if equivalent.
• Factory Production Control (FPC): Manufacturers must implement and document an FPC system (can be integrated with ISO 9001 where applicable) including test plans, sampling, records and corrective actions.
• Initial inspection and surveillance: Notified bodies perform initial inspection of factory and FPC, plus periodic surveillance and approval of FPC records.
• Durability and performance characteristics: The annex lists essential characteristics (activation conditions, operational reliability, temperature, vibration, humidity, corrosion and electrical stability) linked to specific test clauses in the standard.
• CE marking & documentation: Annex ZA outlines requirements for CE marking, labeling and accompanying documentation including EC certificates and declarations of conformity.

Applications

• Specifies the compliance and certification framework for manufacturers designing and producing manual call points.
• Used by product certification bodies assessing type tests, factory audits and issuing EC certificates.

ZA.2 Procedures for the attestation of conformity of point smoke detectors covered by
this standard
ZA.2.1 System of attestation of conformity
The mandate requires that the attestation of conformity system to be applied shall be that shown in Table ZA.2.

Product Intended use Levels or classes Attestation of
conformity system
Fire detection/Fire alarm: Fire safety None 1
Manual call points
System 1: See CPD Annex III.2.(i), without audit-testing of samples by the notified body.

ZA.2.2 Evaluation of conformity
ZA.2.2.1 General
The evaluation of conformity of the product with the requirements of this European Standard shall be demonstrated
by:
a) Tasks to be provided by the manufacturer:
 factory production control;
 testing of samples by the manufacturer in accordance with a prescribed test plan;
b) Tasks to be undertaken under the responsibility of a Notified Product Certification Body:
 type testing of the product;
 initial inspection of the factory and factory production control;
 periodic surveillance, assessment and approval of the factory production control.
NOTE The manufacturer is a natural or legal person, who places the product on the market under his own name. Normally,
the manufacturer designs and manufactures the product himself. As a first alternative, he may have it designed, manufactured,
assembled, packed, processed or labelled by subcontracting. As a second alternative he may assemble, pack, process, or label
ready-made products.
The manufacturer shall ensure:
 that the initial type testing in accordance with this European Standard is initiated and carried out under the
responsibility of a notified product certification body; and
 that the product continuously complies with the initial type testing samples, for which compliance with the
European Standard in question has been verified.
He shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary competence to take the responsibility for the
product. The manufacturer shall be fully responsible for the conformity of the product to all relevant regulatory
requirements.
ZA.2.2.2 Type testing
ZA.2.2.2.1 Type testing shall be performed to demonstrate conformity with this European Standard.
Type testing of the product shall be carried out in accordance with the clauses shown in Table ZA.1, except as
described in ZA.2.2.2.2 and ZA.2.2.2.3.
ZA.2.2.2.2 Tests previously performed, such as type tests for product certification, may be taken into account
providing that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method under the same system of attestation of
conformity as required by this standard on the same product or products of similar design, construction and
functionality, such that the results are applicable to the product in question.
NOTE Same system of attestation of conformity means testing by an independent third party under the responsibility of a
product certification body which is now a notified product certification body.
ZA.2.2.2.3 Where one or more characteristics are the same for products with similar design, construction and
functionality then the results of tests for these characteristics on one product may be applied to the other similar
product or products.
ZA.2.2.2.4 Test samples shall be representative of the normal production. If the test samples are prototypes, they
shall be representative of the intended future production and shall be selected by the manufacturer.
NOTE In the case of prototypes and third party certification, this means that it is the manufacturer not the product
certification body who is responsible for selecting the samples. During the initial inspection of the factory and of the factory
production control (see ZA.2.2.3.4), it is verified that the type tested samples are representative of the product being produced.

ZA.2.2.2.5 All type testing and its results shall be documented in a test report. All test reports shall be retained by
the manufacturer for at least ten years after the last date of production of the product to which they relate.
ZA.2.2.3 Factory production control
ZA.2.2.3.1 General
Factory production control is the permanent internal control of production exercised by the manufacturer.
All the elements, requirements and provisions adopted by the manufacturer shall be documented in a systematic
manner in the form of written policies and procedures. This production control system documentation shall ensure a
common understanding of conformity evaluation and enable the achievement of the required product
characteristics and the effective operation of the production control system to be checked.
Factory production control therefore brings together operational techniques and all measures allowing maintenance
and control of the conformity of the product with its technical specifications. Its implementation may be achie
