Introduction
Non-resettable Line Type Heat Detectors (NLTHD) have been used for a considerable number of years and
are incorporated into fire detection systems and in some countries even into fire alarm systems if accepted by
the fire brigade. These detectors are typically used in areas where point type heat detectors are presented
with challenging environmental characteristics and also, where access to the detectors, may significantly
influence the fire alarm system design.
This standard defines the minimum system functionality for NLTHD products.
Due to the various applications for NLTHD, it is necessary to devise separate environmental classification
tests for the sensing element and the sensor control units of these systems. It is not the purpose of this
standard to define applications or how NLTHD should be used in applications.
Generally NLTHD operate on using the same basic principle. However, they can have different performance
with respect to the temperature response. Therefore they have been classified by a type code which reflects
the nominal alarm temperature, the tolerance range and the maximum ambient temperature at which they
could be used.

4 Requirements
4.1 General
4.1.1 Compliance
In order to comply with this standard, non-resettable line type heat detectors shall meet the requirements of
Clause 4, 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.
4.1.2 Performance type declaration
The manufacturer shall declare the performance type of the NLTHD to be tested using the following format:

areas. Environmental group III covers equipment which is intended to be installed out of doors.
4.2 Nominal activation conditions/sensitivity
4.2.1 Individual alarm indication
Each sensor control unit shall be provided with an integral latched red visual indicator, by which the individual
sensor control unit, which released an alarm, can be identified, until the alarm condition is reset. Where other
conditions of the sensor control unit can be visually indicated, they shall be clearly distinguishable from the
alarm indication, except when the sensor control unit is switched into a service mode. The visual indicator
shall be visible from a distance of 6 m in the direct line of sight perpendicular to the surface, in an ambient

4.3.4 Requirements for software controlled detectors
4.3.4.1 General
For NLTHD, which rely on software control in order to fulfil the requirements of this standard, the requirements
of 4.3.4.2, 4.3.4.3 and 4.3.4.4 shall be met.
4.3.4.2 Software documentation
4.3.4.2.1 The manufacturer shall submit documentation, which gives an overview of the software
design. This documentation shall provide sufficient detail for the design to be inspected for
compliance with this standard and shall include the following as a minimum:
a) a functional description of the main program flow (e.g. as a flow diagram or structogram) including;
1) a brief description of the modules and the functions that they perform,
2) the way in which the modules interact,
3) the overall hierarchy of the program,
4) the way in which the software interacts with the hardware,
5) the way in which the modules are called, including any interrupt processing,
b) a description of which areas of memory are used for the various purposes (e.g. the program, site specific
data and running data);
c) a designation, by which the software and its version can be uniquely identified.
4.3.4.2.2 The manufacturer shall have available detailed design documentation, which only needs to
be provided if required by the testing laboratory. It shall comprise at least the following:
a) an overview of the whole system configuration, including all software and hardware components;
b) a description of each module of the program, containing at least:
1) the name of the module,
2) a description of the tasks performed,
3) a description of the interfaces, including the type of data transfer, the valid data range and the
checking for valid data,
c) full source code listings, as hard copy or in machine-readable form (e.g. ASCII-code), including all global
and local variables, constants and labels used, and sufficient comment for the program flow to be
recognized;
d) details of any software tools used in the design and implementation phase (e.g. CASE-tools, compilers).
4.3.4.3 Software design
In order to ensure the reliability of the NLTHD, the following requirements for software design shall apply:
a) the software shall have a modular structure;
10

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 54-28:2011
prEN 54-28:2011 (E)
b) the design of the interfaces for manually and automatically generated data shall not permit invalid data to
cause error in the program operation;
c) the software shall be designed to avoid the occurrence of deadlock of the program flow.
4.3.4.4 The storage of programs and data
The program necessary to comply with this standard and any preset data, such as manufacturer's settings,
shall be held in non-volatile memory. Writing to areas of memory containing this program and data shall only
be possible by the use of some special tool or code and shall not be possible during normal operation of the
NLTHD.
Site-specific data shall be held in memory which will retain data for at least two weeks without external power
to the detector, unless provision is made for the automatic renewal of such data, following loss of power,
within 1 h of power being restored.
4.3.5 Sensing element fault
The following fault condition test methods apply:
a) Sensing element faults (see 5.2.2);
b) Low voltage (see 5.3.2)
4.3.6 On-site adjustment of behaviour
The effective response behaviour of a NLTHD is dependent upon both the sensitivity settings of the sensor
control unit and the heat sensing element. Some types of NLTHD therefore may have facilities to adjust the
sensitivity of the NLTHD to suit the application.
If there is provision for on-site adjustment of the response behaviour of the detector then:
a) for each setting, at which the manufacturer claims compliance with this standard, the detector shall
comply with the requirements of this standard, and access to the adjustment means shall only be possible
by the use of a code or special tool;
b) any setting(s), at which the manufacturer does not claim compliance with this standard, shall only be
accessible by the use of a code or special tool, and it shall be clearly marked on the detector or in the
associ
