AS ISO 7240.11:2018

Abstract

The objective of this Standard is to specify the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for manual call points in fire detection and alarm systems in and around buildings (refer to AS ISO 7240-1).

Scope

This part of ISO 7240 specifies the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for manual call points in fire detection and alarm systems in and around buildings (see ISO 7240-1). It takes into account indoor and outdoor conditions, the appearance and operation of the manual call points for type A “direct operation” and type B “indirect operation”, and covers those which are simple mechanical switches, those which are fitted with simple electronic components (e.g. resistors, diodes) and those which contain active electronic components and which work with the control and indicating equipment for signalling and identifying, for example, an address or location.
This part of ISO 7240 does not cover manual call points for special applications, for example manual call points that are intrinsically safe or for use in hazardous conditions, if such applications require additional or other requirements or tests than those given in this part of ISO 7240.
