Fire detection and fire alarm systems - Part 29: Multi-sensor fire detectors - Point detectors using a combination of smoke and heat sensors

This European Standard specifies requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point-type multi-sensor fire detectors for use in fire detection systems installed in buildings (see EN 54 1:2011), incorporating in one mechanical enclosure at least one optical or ionization smoke sensor and at least one heat sensor. The overall fire detection performance is determined utilizing the combination of the detected phenomena.
This European Standard provides for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of point detectors using a combination of smoke and heat sensors to this EN.
Point detectors using a combination of smoke and heat sensors having special characteristics suitable for the detection of specific fire risks are not covered by this European Standard. The performance requirements for any additional functions are beyond the scope of this European Standard (e.g. additional features or enhanced functionality for which this European Standard does not define a test or assessment method).
NOTE   Certain types of detector contain radioactive materials. The national requirements for radiation protection differ from country to country and they are not specified in this European Standard.

Brandmeldeanlagen - Teil 29: Mehrfachsensor-Brandmelder - Punktförmige Melder mit kombinierten Rauch- und Wärmesensoren

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen, Prüfverfahren und Leistungsmerkmale für punktförmige Mehrfachsensor-Brandmelder fest, die in Brandmeldeanlagen für Gebäude (siehe EN 54 1:2011) eingesetzt werden, und die in einem mechanischen Gehäuse mindestens einen Rauchsensor nach dem Durchlicht- oder Ionisationsprinzip und mindestens einen Wärmesensor enthalten. Ihre Gesamtleistung bei der Brandmeldung ergibt sich aus der Kombination der erkannten Brandphänomene.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält die Bewertung und Überprüfung der Leistungsbeständigkeit (AVCP) von punktförmigen Meldern mit kombinierten Rauch- und Wärmesensoren nach dieser EN.
Punktförmige Melder mit kombinierten Rauch- und Wärmesensoren, die über spezielle Eigenschaften verfügen und zur Erkennung spezieller Brandrisiken geeignet sind, werden in der vorliegenden Europäischen Norm nicht behandelt. Die Leistungsanforderungen an alle zusätzlichen Funktionen fallen nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Europäischen Norm (z. B. werden in dieser Europäischen Norm für zusätzliche Merkmale oder für eine verbesserte Funktionstüchtigkeit keine Prüf- oder Bewertungsverfahren festgelegt).
ANMERKUNG   Bestimmte Melderarten enthalten radioaktive Stoffe. Die nationalen Anforderungen zum Schutz gegen radioaktive Strahlung sind in den einzelnen Ländern unterschiedlich und werden in der vorliegenden Europäischen Norm nicht festgelegt.

Systèmes de détection et d'alarme incendie - Partie 29 : Détecteurs d'incendie multi-capteurs - Détecteurs ponctuels utilisant une combinaison de capteurs de fumée et de chaleur

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences, les méthodes d'essai et les critères de performance pour les détecteurs d'incendie ponctuels multicapteurs destinés à être utilisés dans les systèmes de détection d'incendie installés dans les bâtiments (voir l'EN 54-1:2011), incorporant dans une seule enveloppe mécanique au moins un capteur de fumée optique ou à ionisation et au moins un capteur de chaleur. La performance globale de détection du feu est déterminée en utilisant la combinaison des phénomènes détectés.
La présente Norme européenne prévoit l'évaluation et la vérification de la constance des performances (EVCP) des détecteurs ponctuels utilisant une combinaison de capteurs de fumée et de chaleur, par rapport à la présente Norme européenne.
Les détecteurs ponctuels, utilisant une combinaison de capteurs de fumée et de chaleur possédant des caractéristiques particulières appropriées pour la détection de risques d'incendies spécifiques, ne sont pas couverts par la présente Norme européenne. Les exigences de performance relatives à toute autre fonction ne relèvent pas du domaine d'application de la présente Norme européenne (par exemple, des caractéristiques supplémentaires ou une fonctionnalité améliorée pour lesquelles la présente Norme européenne ne définit pas d'essai ou de méthode d'évaluation).
NOTE   Certains types de détecteurs contiennent des matières radioactives. Les exigences nationales de radioprotection variant d'un pays à l'autre, celles-ci ne sont pas spécifiées dans la présente Norme européenne.

Multi-sensor fire detectors combining smoke and heat sensors complying with this document are general
purpose fire detectors. Multi-sensor fire detectors can be used to achieve
— a high stability against deceptive phenomena,
— a response to a broad range of fires.
