Introduction
This document deals with microwave detectors (to be referred to as the detector) used as part of
intrusion alarm systems installed in buildings. It includes four security grades and four environmental
classes.
The purpose of the detector is to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned to
detect an intruder and to provide the necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of
the intrusion alarm system.
The number and scope of these signals or messages will be more comprehensive for systems that are
specified at the higher grades.
This version of the standard contains limited requirements for Grade 4 detectors. Future revisions of the
standard are expected to include enhanced requirements for Grade 4 detectors.
This document is only concerned with the requirements and tests for the detector. Other types of
detector are covered by other documents identified as in the EN 50131-2 series.
NOTE Each country has certain regulations in regards to which part of the microwave spectrum is allowed to
be used in this application. This information can be found in ERC recommendation 70-03.

1 Scope
This document is for microwave detectors installed in buildings and provides for security grades 1 to 4
(see EN 50131-1), specific or non-specific wired or wire-free detectors, and uses environmental classes
I to IV (see EN 50130-5). This document does not include requirements for detectors intended for use
outdoors.
The purpose of the detector is to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned to
detect an intruder and to provide the necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of
the intrusion alarm system.
The grade-dependent requirements of this document apply and it is essential that a detector fulfils all
the requirements of the specified grade.
Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this document can be included in the
detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions.
Requirements for system interconnections are not included in this document.

This permits two methods of signalling a masking: either by the intrusion signal and fault signal, or by a
dedicated masking or message. Use of the intrusion signal and fault signal is preferable, as this requires
fewer connections between CIE and detector. If multiple events overlap there will be some signal
combinations that may be ambiguous. To overcome this ambiguity it is suggested that detectors should
not signal ‘intrusion‘ and ‘fault‘ at the same time except to indicate masking. This implies that the detector
should prioritize signals, e.g. 1 Intrusion, 2 Fault, 3 Masking.
When, in Table 1, an event may optionally generate signals or messages, they shall be as shown in this
table.
a
An independent signal or message may be provided instead.
b
Total loss of Power Supply does not apply for message based detectors.
4.2 Detection
4.2.1 Detection performance
The detector shall generate an intrusion signal or message when the standard or simulated walk-test
target moves at velocities and attitudes specified in Table 3. For detection across the boundary the walk-
test distance shall be 1,5 m either side of the boundary. For test “Detection within the boundary” the
walk-test distance shall be 3,0 m.

its completion

For grade 3 and 4 detectors, the intermittent movement shall consist of the SWT walking 1 m at a velocity of
1,0 ms-1 then pausing for 5 s before continuing. The sequence shall be maintained until the SWT has traversed
through the entire detection area. This constitutes one walk test. The test shall be repeated in each of the
directions shown in Figure C.3.
The detection performance tests required for a detector will depend on the coverage angle claimed.
Therefore this document differentiates between detectors with coverage angles less than or equal to
180°, such as those typically used for wall mounted applications, and detectors with coverage angles of
360° detectors intended for ceiling mounting.
4.2.2 Indication of detection
An indicator shall be provided at the detector to indicate when an intrusion signal or message has been
generated. At grades 1 and 2 this indicator shall be capable of being enabled and disabled either
remotely at Access Level 2 and/or locally enabled/disabled after removal of a cover which provides
tamper detection as described in Tables 1 and 4. At grades 3 and 4 this indicator shall be capable of
being enabled and disabled remotely at Access Level 2.

adjustment
All components, means of adjustment and access to mounting screws, which, when interfered with,
could adversely affect the operation of the detector, shall be located within the detector housing. Such
access shall require the use of an appropriate tool and depending on the grade as specified in Table 4
shall generate a tamper signal or message before access can be gained.
It shall not be possible to gain such access without generating a tamper signal or message or causing
visible damage.
4.5.3 Detection of removal from the mounting surface
A tamper signal or message shall be generated if the detector is removed from its mounting surface for
each claimed mounting type (e.g. wall, ceiling, corner, brackets) in accordance with Table 4.
The tamper detection mechanism shall not be defeated by the use of small tools as per the examples
in Annex F.
4.5.4 Resistance to, or detection of, re-orientation
Detectors mounted on adjustable mountings, shall resist or detect reorientation.
After the torque given in Table 4 has been applied and then removed from the detector it shall not have
rotated more than 5° from its original position. Alternatively, when the torque given in Table 4 has been
applied, a tamper signal or message shall be generated if the detector rotates by more than 5°.
4.5.5 Immunity to magnetic field interference
It shall not be possible to inhibit any signal or message with a magnet of grade dependence according
to Table 4. The magnet types shall be as described in Annex A.

4.5.6 Detection of masking
Means shall be provided to detect inhibition of the operation of the detector by masking according to the
requirements of Table 4.
The maximum response time for the masking detection device shall be 180 s. Masking shall be signalled
according to the requirements of Table 2. The signals or messages shall remain for at least as long as
the masking condition is present. A masking signal or message shall not be reset while the masking
condition is still present. Alternatively, the masking signal or message shall be generated again within
180 s of being reset if the masking condition is still present.
NOTE From a system design point of view it would be preferable for masked detectors to automatically reset
after the masking condition is removed.
No masking signal or message shall be generated by normal human movement according to Figure C.5.
For detectors where detection of masking may be remotely disabled the detection of masking shall
operate when the I&HAS is unset; it is not required to operate when the I&HAS is set.
4.6 Electrical requirements
4.6.1 General
The grade-dependencies appear in Table 5. These requirements do not apply to detectors having
internal Type C power supplies. For these detectors, refer to EN 50131-6.

69 Introduction
70 This document deals with microwave detectors (to be referred to as the detector) used as part of
71 intrusion alarm systems installed in buildings. It includes four security grades and four environmental
72 classes.
73 The purpose of the detector is to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned to
74 detect an intruder and to provide the necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of
75 the intrusion alarm system.
76 The number and scope of these signals or messages will be more comprehensive for systems that are
77 specified at the higher grades.
78 This version of the standard contains limited requirements for Grade 4 detectors. Future revisions of the
79 standard are expected to include enhanced requirements for Grade 4 detectors.
80 This document is only concerned with the requirements and tests for the detector. Other types of
81 detector are covered by other documents identified as in the EN 50131-2 series.
82 NOTE Each country has certain regulations in regards to which part of the microwave spectrum is allowed to
83 be used in this application. This information can be found in ERC recommendation 70-03.

84 1 Scope
85 This document is for microwave detectors installed in buildings and provides for security grades 1 to 4
86 (see EN 50131-1), specific or non-specific wired or wire-free detectors, and uses environmental classes
87 I to IV (see EN 50130-5). This document does not include requirements for detectors intended for use
88 outdoors.
89 The purpose of the detector is to emit microwave signals and analyse the signals that are returned to
90 detect an intruder and to provide the necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of
91 the intrusion alarm system.
92 The grade-dependent requirements of this document apply and it is essential that a detector fulfils all
93 the requirements of the specified grade.
94 Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this document can be included in the
95 detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions.
96 Requirements for system interconnections are not included in this document.

This permits two methods of signalling a masking: either by the intrusion signal and fault signal, or by a
dedicated masking or message. Use of the intrusion signal and fault signal is preferable, as this requires
fewer connections between CIE and detector. If multiple events overlap there will be some signal
combinations that may be ambiguous. To overcome this ambiguity it is suggested that detectors should
not signal ‘intrusion‘ and ‘fault‘ at the same time except to indicate masking. This implies that the detector
should prioritize signals, e.g. 1 Intrusion, 2 Fault, 3 Masking.
When, in Table 1, an event may optionally generate signals or messages, they shall be as shown in this
table.
a
An independent signal or message may be provided instead.
b
Total loss of Power Supply does not apply for message based detectors.
168 4.2 Detection
169 4.2.1 Detection performance
170 The detector shall generate an intrusion signal or message when the standard or simulated walk-test
171 target moves at velocities and attitudes specified in Table 3. For detection across the boundary the walk-
172 test distance shall be 1,5 m either side of the boundary. For test “Detection within the boundary” the
173 walk-test distance shall be 3,0 m.

The detector shall provide an intrusion signal or message either during the walk test or within 10 s of its
completion
a For grade 3 and 4 detectors, the intermittent movement shall consist of the SWT walking 1 m at a velocity of 1,0 ms-1 then pausing for 5 s before continuing. The
sequence shall be maintained until the SWT has traversed through the entire detection area. This constitutes one walk test. The test shall be repeated in each of the
directions shown in Figure C.3.
175 The detection performance tests required for a detector will depend on the coverage angle claimed.
176 Therefore this document differentiates between detectors with coverage angles less than or equal to
177 180°, such as those typically used for wall mounted applications, and detectors with coverage angles of
178 360° detectors intended for ceiling mounting.
179 4.2.2 Indication of detection
180 An indicator shall be provided at the detector to indicate when an intrusion signal or message has been
181 generated. At grades 1 and 2 this indicator shall be capable of being enabled and disabled either
182 remotely at Access Level 2 and/or locally enabled/disabled after removal of a cover which provides
183 tamper detection as described in Tables 1 and 4. At grades 3 and 4 this indicator shall be capable of
184 being enabled and disabled remotely at Access Level 2.

219 adjustment
220 All components, means of adjustment and access to mounting screws, which, when interfered with,
221 could adversely affect the operation of the detector, shall be located within the detector housing. Such
222 access shall require the use of an appropriate tool and depending on the grade as specified in Table 4
223 shall generate a tamper signal or message before access can be gained.
224 It shall not be possible to gain such access without generating a tamper signal or message or causing
225 visible damage.
226 4.5.3 Detection of removal from the mounting surface
227 A tamper signal or message shall be generated if the detector is removed from its mounting surface for
228 each claimed mounting type (e.g. wall, ceiling, corner, brackets) in accordance with Table 4.
229 The tamper detection mechanism shall not be defeated by the use of small tools as per the examples
230 in Annex F.
231 4.5.4 Resistance to, or detection of, re-orientation
232 Detectors mounted on adjustable mountings, shall resist or detect reorientation.
233 After the torque given in Table 4 has been applied and then removed from the detector it shall not have
234 rotated more than 5° from its original position. Alternatively, when the torque given in Table 4 has been
235 applied, a tamper signal or message shall be generated if the detector rotates by more than 5°.
236 4.5.5 Immunity to magnetic field interference
237 It shall not be possible to inhibit any signal or message with a magnet of grade dependence according

240 Means shall be provided to detect inhibition of the operation of the detector by masking according to the
241 requirements of Table 4.
242 The maximum response time for the masking detection device shall be 180 s. Masking shall be signalled
243 according to the requirements of Table 2. The signals or messages shall remain for at least as long as
244 the masking condition is present. A masking signal or message shall not be reset while the masking
245 condition is still present. Alternatively, the masking signal or message shall be generated again within
246 180 s of being reset if the masking condition is still present.
247 NOTE From a system design point of view it would be preferable for masked detectors to automatically reset
248 after the masking condition is removed.
249 No masking signal or message shall be generated by normal human movement according to Figure C.5.
250 For detectors where detection of masking may be remotely disabled the detection of masking shall
251 operate when the I&HAS is unset; it is not required to operate when the I&HAS is set.

262 nominal value, or between the manufacturer’s stated values if greater. When the supply voltage is
263 lowered slowly, the detector shall function normally at the specified range limits.
264 The detector shall generate a fault signal or message according to Table 1 and 2, prior to the situation
265 where the detector is unable to function correctly due to low supply voltage.
266 4.6.4 Input voltage ripple
267 The detector shall meet all functional requirements during the modulation of the input voltage by a peak
268 to peak voltage of 10 % of the nominal value, at a frequency of 100 Hz.
269 4.6.5 Input voltage step change
270 No signals or messages shall be caused by a step in the input voltage between nominal and maximum
271 and between nominal and minimum.
