Abstract

The objective of this Standard is to specify the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point type heat detectors for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings (refer to AS ISO 7240.1). For other types of heat detector, or for detectors intended for use in other environments, this Standard can be used for guidance only. Heat detectors with special characteristics and developed for specific risks are not covered by this Standard.
