BS/EN 54-13-2017 pdf download.Fire detection and fire alarm systems Part 13: Compatibility and connectability assessment of system components.
4.2.4 Each type 1 component shall be powered directly or indirectly by a PSE which conforms to the requirements in EN 54-4 except for some radio link components in accordance with EN 54-25 which may be powered by batteries.
4.2.5 Each type 1 component shall meet the requirements of the relevant part of EN 54.
In the case where the component type 1 is not covered by EN 54 series it shall meet the following:
a) conformity of the functionality (indication, control, activation) as declared by the component manufacturer: this functionality shall be consistent with the purpose of a FDAS. The applicant shall provide the means to check the functionality;
b) compliance to EN 501304 Electromagnetic compatibility;
c) compliance to EN 50130-5; the applicant shall declare the environmental class. The measurements or inspections are made before, during (if necessary) and after testing. There shall be no change in the functioning of the equipment and no significant change in any measurements, which also shall remain within specification.
Alternatively the component may comply with the environmental clauses included in an appropriate EN.54 part (refer to environmental tests in EN54-1:2011 ClauseS to select the appropriate part).
NOTE A component not covered by an EN 54 standard may be covered by a European Assessment Document.
4.2.6 The operation of type 1 and type 2 component shall not jeopardize the operation of the system.
4.2.7 Each component within the FDAS shall operate correctly when submitted to supply voltage variation as specified by the manufacturer. For each configuration voltage shall be within the specified voltage supply range of each component in the FDAS.
4.3 Transmission path(s)
4.3.1 General
Each TP between components shall be realized as one or a combination of the following: electrical cable, radio frequency links or fibre optic cable.
Means, specified and provided, to limit the consequences of faults on a transmission path shall ensure that the function of remaining operational devices is re-established within 300 s following the occurrence of the fault.
4.3.3 TI’ using radio frequency link
The applicant shall define in the installation documentation the arrangement of the TP using radio frequency link. The component type 1 using radio frequency link shall comply with the requirements of
EN 54-25.
4.3.4 TI’ using optical fibre
The applicant shall define in the installation documentation the arrangement of the TP and if the TI’s
may be combined in one cable.
A single fibre break or loss of transmission within a cable shall not affect more than one TP.
A fibre break or loss of transmission on a transmission path to any other system shall not affect the correct functioning of the FDAS.
4.3.5 Network TP
The network technology of networked CIE could be either wired link, fibre optics or radio. The following requirements shall apply:
a) the connection to the network and any single short, open or earth fault in the network shall not jeopardize the correct operation of the FDAS (in the specified configuration);
b) any traffic on the network shall stay within the limits defined by the applicant and shall not jeopardize the correct operation of the FDAS;
c) the access to the CIE through the network shall comply with the requirement of the access levels defined in the relevant EN 54;
d) if the configuration is designed to transmit a functional condition (such as fire alarm, fault warning, disablement…) from one CIE to any other CIE through the network, then the transmission time shall be determined by the applicable product standard. However where this is not the case, transmission time shall be within 20s;
e) if the configuration is designed to transmit an activation message(s) from one CIE to any other CIE through the network, then the transmission time shall be within 20 s and the relevant output shall be activated at the other CIE as specified in EN 54-2 or EN 54-16;
f) if the configuration is designed to transmit a fire alarm, fault warning or disablement condition from one CIE to any other CIE through the network, it shall be possible to identify at least the CIE from which the information originated;BS/EN 54-13-2017 pdf download.
