SAE ARP 4001 : 2012

Abstract

Describes key features that should be incorporated in the lavatory smoke detector system. Existing requirements of the FAA has been given consideration and to recommendations of aircraft operators and manufacturers. This document is deliberately not specific in all areas in order to maximize the freedom to use state-of-the-art design and manufacturing technologies. Safe, reliable, and effective lavatory smoke detectors remain the primary goals of the document. The intent of installing smoke detectors in aircraft lavatories is to enhance, through auditory visual signals, the ability of flight attendants to detect fires in the cabin, and not to serve as primary detectors such as those used in isolated cargo compartments.
