BS EN 54-26:2015 PDF

What is BS EN 54-26 – Requirements and test methods for point detectors about?

BS EN 54-26 specifies requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point detectors using carbon monoxide sensing for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems in and around buildings (see BS EN 54-1:2011 ). BS EN 54-26 provides for the assessment and verification of consistency of performance (AVCP) of carbon monoxide point detectors to this EN. Note1: BS EN 54-26 does not apply to fire detectors incorporating at least one CO sensing element in combination with other elements sensing different fire phenomena. CO detectors having special characteristics suitable for the detection of specific fire risks are not covered by BS EN 54-26 . Note2: The performance requirements for any additional functions are beyond the scope of BS EN 54-26 (e.g. additional features or enhanced functionality for which BS EN 54-26 does not define a test or assessment method).
