EN 14604:2005 (E) 7 4 General requirements 4.1 Compliance In order to comply with this document the smoke alarm shall meet the requirements of this clause, which shall be verified by visual inspection or engineering assessment, shall be tested as described in Clause 5 and shall meet the requirements of the tests. For smoke alarms which a manufacturer claims are suitable for leisure accommodation vehicles, the tests in Annex L shall be applied. 4.2 Individual alarm indicator (optional) Alarm indicators, if fitted, shall be red and shall be separate from the mains-on indicator. This visual indicator may also perform another additional function but the alarm indication needs to be distinct from this additional function. The failure of any visual indicator shall not prevent the emitting of a fire alarm signal. 4.3 Mains-on indicator A smoke alarm intended to be connected to the AC mains shall be provided with a continuous mains-on indicator to indicate energization of the unit. This indicator shall be coloured green and shall be separate from any other indicators. If more than one light-emitting indicator is provided on the smoke alarm, the mains-on indicator shall be green, an alarm indicator shall be red, and a fault indicator shall be amber or yellow. 4.4 Connection of external ancillary devices The smoke alarm may provide for connections to external ancillary devices (e.g. remote indicators, control relays, transmitters), but open- or short-circuit failure of these connections shall not prevent the correct operation of the smoke alarm. 4.5 Means of calibration The manufacturer's means of calibration shall not be readily adjustable, on site, after manufacture. 4.6 User replaceable components Except for batteries or fuses, a smoke alarm shall have no user replaceable or serviceable components. 4.7 Normal power source The power source of the smoke alarm may be internal or external to the smoke alarm housing. Where the power source is internal to the smoke alarm, the source shall meet the following requirements. The power source shall operate the smoke alarm for at least one year's life, including routine testing (see 4.15). A distinctive audible fault signal shall be given before the battery is incapable of operating for alarm purposes (see 5.16). The smoke alarm shall be capable of producing an alarm signal for at least 4 min at the battery voltage at which a fault signal is normally obtained or 30 days of fault signal operation (see 4.15).
EN 14604:2005 (E) 8 The internal power source shall be replaceable by the user unless its operating life (see 4.15) in the smoke alarm is 10 years or greater. 4.8 Standby power source 4.8.1 General For smoke alarms intended for connection to an external power supply, for which an integral back-up/standby power facility is provided, the following requirements shall apply: a) primary cell battery back-up: the back-up power supply shall be capable of meeting the requirements of 4.15; b) rechargeable back-up power sources: the back-up power source shall be capable of supplying the quiescent load of the smoke alarm for a minimum period of 72 h followed by an alarm signal as specified in 5.17 for at least 4 min in the event of fire, or in the absence of a fire, a fault warning for at least 24 h. In the absence of suitable test procedures to verify the back-up power source, data concerning the smoke alarm loads and the back-up facility characteristics shall be used to indicate that the above requirements can be met. 4.8.2 Monitoring of back-up power source The back-up power source shall be monitored by the smoke alarm for faults. These faults shall include low back-up, open circuit and short circuit failure of the back-up (see 5.23). 4.9 Electrical safety requirements The apparatus shall be designed and constructed so as to present no danger, either in normal use or under fault conditions, as determined by the tests and requirements in 5.24. 4.10 Routine test facility A routine test facility shall be provided on all smoke alarms to simulate either mechanically or electrically the presence of smoke in the sensing assembly. The test feature shall be accessible from outside the smoke alarm when installed as specified in the installation instructions.
4.11 Terminals for external conductors The smoke alarm or base, as appropriate, if intended to have external connections, shall provide for the connection of conductors by means of screws, nuts or equally effective devices. For mains-powered smoke alarms which utilize a "flying lead"–type connector, this connector shall be regarded as a conductor. If terminals are provided, they shall allow the connection of conductors having nominal cross-sectional areas of between 0,4 mm2 and 1,5 mm2. Disconnection of the conductors, or access to the conductors for disconnection, shall not be possible without the use of a tool. Terminals shall be designed so that they clamp the conductor between metal surfaces without rotation of those surfaces but with sufficient contact pressure and without damage to the conductor. Flying lead type connectors shall be subjected to a pull test, such that when the connector is subjected to a pull of 20 N without jerks for 1 min in any direction allowed by the design, the connector does not become detached.
EN 14604:2005 (E) 9 4.12 Smoke alarm signals In a smoke alarm which employs one or more non-fire alarm features the following operation shall be obtained: a) the smoke alarm fire alarm signal shall take precedence over any other signal even when such other signal is initiated first. b) distinctive signals shall be obtained between a smoke alarm's fire alarm and other non-fire alarm functions. Use of a common sounder is permitted if distinctive signals are obtained. If an audible fault signal is provided it shall be distinctive from all alarm signals but may be common to all functions employed. 4.13 Battery removal indication The removal of any user-replaceable battery used to power, or provide back-up power, for the smoke detection circuit/sounder, from a battery or mains powered d.c. backed smoke alarm, shall result in a visual, mechanical or audible warning that the battery has been removed. The visual warning shall not depend upon a power source. NOTE Conformity may be achieved by, but is not restricted to, one of the following examples: a) a warning flag that will be exposed with the battery removed and the cover closed; b) a hinged cover or battery compartment that cannot be closed when the battery is removed; c) a unit that cannot be replaced upon its mounting base/bracket with the battery removed. 4.14 Battery connections Lead or terminal connections to batteries shall be identified with the proper polarity (plus or minus). The polarity may be indicated on the unit adjacent to the battery terminals or leads. Any leads connecting the terminal connectors of batteries in smoke alarms to the smoke alarm circuit board shall be provided with strain relieving devices adjacent to both battery terminal connectors and the smoke alarm circuit board so that when the leads are subjected to a pull of 20 N without jerks for 1 min in any direction allowed by the design, the pull is not transmitted to the joints between the leads and the battery terminal connectors or between the leads and the smoke alarm circuit board. 4.15 Battery capacity The batteries supplied with or specified for use in smoke alarms shall be capable of supplying the quiescent load of the smoke alarm together with the additional load resulting from a routine weekly
10 s test, for at least 1 year before the battery fault warning is given. At the point when the battery fault warning commences, the batteries shall have sufficient capacity to give an alarm signal as specified in 5.17 for at least 4 min in the event of fire, or in the absence of fire a battery fault warning for at least 30 days. In the absence of suitable test procedures to verify battery capacity, data concerning the smoke alarm loads and the battery characteristics shall be used to indicate that the above requirement can be met. 4.16 Protection against the ingress of foreign bodies The smoke alarm shall be so designed that a sphere of diameter (1,3 ± 0,05) mm cannot pass into the sensor chamber(s).
EN 14604:2005 (E) 10 NOTE This requirement is intended to restrict the access of insects into the sensitive parts of the smoke alarm. It is known that this requirement is not sufficient to prevent the access of all insects, however it is considered that extreme restrictions on the size of access holes may introduce the danger of clogging by dust etc. It may therefore be necessary to take other precautions against false alarms due to the entry of small insects. 4.17 Additional requirements for software controlled smoke alarms 4.17.1 General For smoke alarms, which rely on software control in order to ful
