Electrical apparatus for the detection of carbon monoxide in domestic premises - Part 2: Electrical apparatus for continuous operation in a fixed installation in recreational vehicles and similar premises including recreational craft - Additional test methods and performance requirements
This European Standard specifies general requirements for the construction, testing and performance of electrically operated carbon monoxide gas detection apparatus, designed for continuous operation in a fixed installation in recreational vehicles and similar premises including recreational craft. NOTE For caravan holiday homes EN 50291-1 applies. This European Standard specifies apparatus designed to operate in the event of an escape of carbon monoxide and to provide a visual and audible alarms only (Type B of EN 50291-1), or to provide visual and audible alarms and an executive action in the form of an output signal that can actuate directly or indirectly a shut-off device and/or other ancillary device (Type A of EN 50291-1). This European Standard excludes apparatus for the detection of combustible gases, other than carbon monoxide itself (see EN 50194 1), for the detection of CO in industrial installations (see EN 45544-1, EN 45544-2 and EN 45544-3) or commercial premises, for CO measurement for smoke and fire detection

monoxide and to provide a visual and audible alarms only (Type B of EN 50291-1), or to provide visual
and audible alarms and an executive action in the form of an output signal that can actuate directly or
indirectly a shut-off device and/or other ancillary device (Type A of EN 50291-1).
This European Standard excludes apparatus
− for the detection of combustible gases, other than carbon monoxide itself (see EN 50194-1),
− for the detection of CO in industrial installations (see EN 45544-1, EN 45544-2 and EN 45544-3) or
commercial premises,
− for CO measurement for smoke and fire detection.

4 General requirements
4.1 General
This subclause of EN 50291-1 is applicable, with the following addition:
In this European Standard there are requirements that cover all apparatus. Additional application specific
requirements apply to certain groups of recreational vehicles, such as boats. An apparatus which
complies with the requirements for recreational craft will automatically comply with the requirements for
motor caravans and caravans. An apparatus which complies with the requirements for motor caravans will
automatically comply with the requirements for caravans. The apparatus are designed for continuous
operation.
NOTE 1 When the vehicle is not in use the apparatus may be switched off in order to save the vehicles power supply or the
internal batteries.
The apparatus may consist of one or more sensor(s) and a control unit. Sensors (integrated into the
apparatus or remote) shall be designed to detect carbon monoxide.
NOTE 2 Sensors or apparatus designed according EN 50291-1 may be used as apparatus or as component of it, if the additional
requirements of this European Standard are complied with.
The apparatus shall reliably detect the presence of carbon monoxide in recreational vehicles under the
stated application conditions, shall produce an alarm and Type A apparatus shall be able to initiate
executive actions whenever the level exceeds the alarm set point.
The apparatus, electrical assemblies and components shall comply with EN 50291-1, where applicable,
with the construction requirements of
