Introduction

This Technical Specification is a specification for microwave detectors (to be referred to as the detector)
used as part of intrusion detection systems installed in buildings. It includes four security grades and the
first three environmental classes.

The purpose of the detector is to detect an intruder. It emits microwave radiation over the area being
protected, and analyses signals that are returned. An intrusion signal or message is generated when the
detector registers a positive indication of the presence of an intruder. The detector shall provide the
necessary range of signals or messages to be used by the rest of the intrusion detection system.

The number and scope of these signals or messages will be more comprehensive for systems that are
specified at the higher grades.

All detectors shall meet the requirements of the telecommunications standards for short-range devices
(SRDs).

This specification is only concerned with the requirements and tests for the microwave detector. Other
types of detector are covered by other documents identified as CLC/TS 50131-2-x.

The requirement in EN 50131-1 that detectors in grade 3 and 4 systems shall include a means to detect a
significant reduction in range may be met either by detectors having the appropriate function (4.2.3) or by
suitable system design.

1 Scope

This Technical Specification provides for security grades 1 to 4 (see EN 50131-1) specific or non-specific
wired or wire-free microwave detectors and is covered by environmental classes I to III (see EN 50130-5).

A function designated in the specification as not required for a particular grade may be provided by the
manufacturer. If provided, it will be tested, and shall meet all relevant requirements of any higher grade. If
it passes, the manufacturer may claim it as an extra feature, which does not alter the overall grading of the
detector.

The specification does not apply to system interconnections.

4.3.4 Power supply faults

Detectors of all grades shall signal complete power failure according to the provisions of Table 1.
Additionally, detectors of grades 3 and 4 shall signal when the supply voltage moves below the
manufacturers specified range according to the provisions of Table 1.

completed, the detector shall resume it’s previous state within 5 s. Fault indication requirements appear in
Table 1

Where normal operation of the detector is inhibited during a local test of function monitoring the inhibition
time shall be limited to a maximum of 15 s in a period of 1 h.

4.4 Immunity to microwave signal interference by fluorescent lights

Tamper security requirements for each grade of detector are shown in Table 3.

4.5.1 Prevention of unauthorized access to the inside of the detector through covers and
existing holes

available tools. Damage must not be caused that would be visible to a person with normal eyesight
viewing from a distance of 1m with the detector illuminated at a level of 2 000 lux.

A tool shall be required to open the unit. All covers giving access to components which could affect
adversely the operation of the detector shall be fitted with a tamper detection device in accordance with
Table 3. A tamper signal or message shall be generated before access is gained with any tool.

4.5.2 Detection of removal from the mounting surface

A tamper detection device shall be fitted which signals a tamper if the detector is removed from the
mounting surface in accordance with Table 3. Mounting screws shall only be accessible from within the
unit. Operation of the device shall not be preventable by external means. This device shall activate before
access can be gained to it.

4.5.3 Resistance to re-orientation of adjustable mountings

Where the orientation of a detector can be adjusted, resistance to re-orientation of the mounting shall be
provided in accordance with Table 3.

The alignment of the boundary of detection shall not have changed by more than 5° due to a grade
dependent applied torque. Alternatively a tamper detection device shall signal before the alignment of the
boundary of detection has moved by 5°. One test arrangement is described in Annex H.

If a detector provides a means to adjust the orientation of its coverage pattern, the access to this means
shall be protected by a tamper detection device.

4.5.4 Immunity to magnetic field interference

It shall not be possible to inhibit any signalling devices with a magnet of grade dependent remanence,
according to Table 3. The form of standard magnets is described in Annex A.

4.5.5 Resistance to masking

Means shall be provided to detect inhibition of the operation of the detector by covering its sensing area
and sensor, in the unset mode. The maximum response time for the masking detection device shall be
