GLOSSARY AND APPENDIX 25

Page 4: Fire Detection Guide

What is a fire detection system?

A fire detection system comprises a central control panel, remote detectors, fire alarm call points and sounders t o raise an alarm in the event of a fire. When specifying a fire detection and alarm system, the new "Fire Precautions in the Workplace Regulations 1997", with the 1971 act must be examined. This legislation includes Risk Assessment and stipulates measures that the user/occupier must take to safeguard buildings or prernises from the risk of fire. Consideration must also be made to ensure the system meets the requirements of BS5839 p t l : 1988. It is always advisable t o consult the local Fire Prevention or Building Officer about legislation for particular premises. There are currently two predominant types of fire detection systems: Conventional and Analogue Addressable.

A Conventional system uses detectors which have two states; NORMAL or FIRE . If there is a fire, the control panel identifies the general area or zone where the fire has started and activates alarm sounders. This type of system is generally suited t o small and medium sized premises. The innovative conventional range includes 'Firetec' and 'Eurofire'. Eurofire-Sensa is a new 2-wire fire detection system (see pages 9, 6 and 13 respc%ctively)

An Analogue Addressable system uses sensors t o indicate the precise location in which the fire or fault has occured . A pre-alarm threshold mechanism helps the panel t o recognise a possible early warning from a sensor. The sensor!; convert an analogue reading t o a digitally encoded output representing the ambient state in the vicinity of the sensing position. The sensors provide the information t o enable the control panel t o determine if there i s a fire or a fault. Analogue sensors can be individually interrogated from the control panel t o check their status at any time. This type of system is suited to larger premises where extensive areas can be covered efficiently by the advanced loop configuration. The status of the whole system is constantly monitored. For information about the advanced analogue system "ANATEC", please turn t o page 15.

A new addressable wireless fire detection system; 'Radio Firetec' is introduced on page 19.

For reference t o Legislation and Codes of practice, please see appendix page 25.

Testing and Maintenance

BS.5839 Part1 1988 states that fire systems should be regularly tested as follows:

Daily Check that the "Supply Healthy" indicator shows and that there are no 'fault' indications, and any previous fault occurances have been attended to.

Weekly Check all panel LEDs are workinq by performinq a lamp test

Quarterly Check all previous log book entries. Examine the battery and connections in the panel. Operate a device as above for the weekly test. Remove mains supply t o check the battery can supply the alarm sounders. Check panel functions by simulating a fault condition. Enter test results into the log book.

Annual As Weekly and Quarterly. Also check all devices for correct operation. Check the installation especially cable fittings and equipment for signs of damage.

Every 2-3 years Cleankhange smoke detectors t o ensure correct operation and thereby reducing the likelihood of false alarms. Special equipment i s required for cleaning smoke detectors.

Every 5 years Replace sealed lead acid batteries and other devices according t o manufacturers instructions.

For any further queries you may have about testing, please contact our Technical Helpline on 0113 281 0600.

DESIGN

Classes of Protection Under 855839 P t l Fire alarm systems are categorised into three types.

Type p Automat? aeteccon systems intendea 6 r theprotectTon of property. They are further subdivded into: Type PI: Systems installed throughout the protected building;

except for voids less than 800mm in height. Type P2: Systems installed only in defined parts of the protected

building, other areas seperated using fire resistant construction.

Automatic detection intended for the protection of life. They are further subdivded into: Type L1: Systems installed throughout the protected building;

except for voids less than 800mm in height. Type L2: Systems installed only in defined parts of the protected

building where a fire could lead to a high risk to life; a type L2 system should normally include the coverage required by a type L3 system;

Type L3: Systems installed only: a) for the protection of escape routes. b) rooms that open up into escape routes. c) landing. d) top of stairs and vertical risers such as lift shafts

and at each level within 1.5metres of lift or riser access.

Premises protected by automatic detection systems, i.e. types L and P, should normally also be provided with manual call points.

Manual alarm systems

In some premises, responsibility may lie with more than one occupant or external party. The fire alarm system requirement will differ to that of a building with single occupancy. There is a need for liaison between occupants and fire alarm systems may need to be linked or overlapped. Systems intended for use in multi-occupancy buildings are given the suffix letter X.

Fire Detection Zones To identify the source of a fire quickly, it is necessary to divide the protected region into zones. A zone may contain a number of fire compartments. Typically a fire compartment is a closed space bounded by 3 structure that will contain a fire for at least 30 minutes.

1. A zone is limited to one floor unless the total building floor area is less than 300m2 . Such a small site can be a one zone building

2. One zone will have a maximum floor area of 2000m2. 3. The visual search distance to locate a fire must not excede 30m.

On sites with many compartments remote indicators can be fitted outside rooms to assist in the search.

4. A stairwell in a fire compartment becomes a separate zone when it extends beyond one floor.

5. A zone is defined by its structure and layout. Zonal boundaries are set independent of the state of occupancy.

6. Where more than one compartment exists in a zone, there will be a common perimeter in part.

Addressable Systems A scheme based on an addressable detection system must be designed to ensure:

1. A single fault in the field is quarantined t o a single zone. This will be achieved by the strategic positioning of short circuit isolation modules.

2. One loop should be allocated to protect a maximum area of 1 0,000m2 .

3. The panel display of an alarm condition must indicate the zone of registration. The code also requires for a mimic diagram or zone plan showing the plan of the building to aid zonal identification.

Call Points, Detectors and Sounders Break Glass Call Points Positioning:

1, At all final exit points to the outside. On all exit routes and floor

2. The maximum travel distance to a call point is 30m. 3. A call point must be positioned in an illuminated obvious place,

4. The method of operation of all call points should be identical

landings of all stairways.

1.4m above the floor.

through-out the scheme.

Detectors A fire produces smoke and heat. The characteristics of a fire are determined by the material that has been ignited and the conditions prevailing at the site of the fire. The physical and environmental situation (prescence of: cigarette smoke, exhaust fumes, or steam from bathrooms) must be assessed before choosing the type of detector.

Point Smoke Detectors

Ionisation Chamber Detection An electric current flows between two electrodes. Smoke particles will reduce the current flow. Ideal for detecting fast burning fires where little smoke is visible (generally hot smoke).

Optical Chamber Detection A photosensor is fitted away from the direct path of an infra red beam. Smoke particles entering into the chamber will scatter the beam towards the sensor and trigger an alarm. Ideal for large particle smoke, typically produced by smouldering PVC (generally thick dense smoke).

Point Heat Detectors 1. Fixed Temperature

An alarm condition is triggered when the temperature reaches a preset level. Ideal where there is a natural fluctuation in temperature during the day.

Designed to detect a fire condition by monitoring the rate of rise of the room temperature. An alarm triggers when the temperature rises quickly. Suitable for areas where the temperature is normally stable. A fixed temperature element is also incorporated.

2. Rate of Rise

3. Fixed High Temperature

Page 6: Fire Detection Guide

Volumetric Detectors Detectors that are sensitive t o smoke particle movement in a large expanse or an inaccessable area of the building.

1. Optical Beam Smoke Detectors An infra red beam is passed from a transmitter t o a receiver across the length of an enclosed space (typically a void beneath a pitched roof). Visible smoke particles interrupting the beam will trigger the alarm.

Air from a duct is sampled through a probe. The sample is channelled t o an externally f itted smoke detector.

2. Ventilation Duct Smoke Detectors

Positioning and Spacing of Detectors Detectors should be sited where the greatest concentration o f smoke or heat might be expected.

If the roof is pitched against a vertical wall place the detector at least 0.5m from the wall. The horizontal distance may be increased by 1 % (to a maximum increase of 25%) for each degree increment of slope.

Fire Control Panel Siting 1. A t the entrance used by the Fire Brigade on the ground

floor and in an area common t o all building users. 2. In a low risk, vandal free area. Seek advice from the Local

Fire Officer. 3. The control panel should be kept locked and protected,

especially where automatic detectors are in use. An alarm sounder must be sited next t o the panel. Repeater panels should be sited in locations which have 24hour surveillance.

Standby Power Supplies Power supplies for Fire Alarm systems wil l usually have a standby supply from secondary batteries. The expected life for the batteries is 3-5 years. After a mains supply failure they must operate the panels for a specified duration plus the alarm load for 30 minutes. The standby duration is a minimum o f 24 hours but this wil l depend on the installation. For further details please contact our technical sales department.

Wiring and Installation Typically mineral insulated copper cable (MICC) and other fire resistant cables are preferred for f ire alarm applications. BS5839 part 1 gives ful l details. Vital elements o f the system (Power, Control and Sounders) demand that cable integrity must be maintained for a period after a fire has started. Cables t o the trigger devices (call points, detectors) do not need t o be so well protected, but must allow data transmission when the fire is sensed. Cables should be installed in accordance with good practices illustrated in the latest addition of the IEE wiring regulations and guidelines within BS5839 P t l . For further details please contact our technical sales department.

Sounders (frequency range ~OO-IOOOHZ) 1. Minimum Sound Levels

At any point of occupancy: 65dBA or 5dBA above any background noise likely to last more than 30 seconds. In sleeping quarters to wake occupants: 75 dBA at the bedhead and should be installed in the bedroom. For 'P' classified premises a red external sounder labelled "Fire Alarm" is required.

All sounders fitted in a building must produce a similar distinct sound. However, in active machinery areas it may be necessary to install louder or audio-visual sounders to compensate for a higher background noise level.

Although the noise level produced by a sounder may be adequate to be heard on the other side of one adjoining wall or door; be aware that a standard door and a fire door reduces the noise level by 2OdB and 30dB respectively. Note: As an approximation; as the distance from the source is doubled so the level is reduced by 6dBA.Take care that the design sound level will not permanently impare hearing.

A scheme must allow for a minimum of two sounders and two sounder circuits per building. This caters for circuit or sounder failure.

3. Performance

4. Minimum Sounder Requirement

When Designing a System Ensure that: The alarm devices current consumption does not exceed the panel maximums The correct end-of-line units are allowed for and fitted to all circuits All detectors are sited in accordance with British Standard recommendations The total current consumption of the detection devices does not exceed the panel maximums The detector or alarm circuits contain no spurs or branches The design is in accordance with the relevant British Standards (e.g. BS5839 p t l ) recommendations

Conventional Smoke & Heat Detectors How do they work?

Conventional smoke and heat detectors respond to alarm situations within a given zone. The panel receives a signal which indicates a fire condition via the front panel display.

LPCB approval on AP6-ION, AP6-ION-INT, AP6-OPT and AP6-FT8, AP6-RR6.

Black Smoke Detector FA95-IONB, FA95-OPTB, FA95- ABB

An analogue addressable smoke or heat detector finished in black. Designed to blend into spaces such as Cinema auditoria and low-lit areas where an unobstrusive presence is needed or required. The detector range complements the Performa range of emergency lighting

Ionisation Smoke Detectors (AP6-ION)

A current flows between 2 electrodes. Smoke particles will reduce the current flow. Ideal for detecting fast burning fires where little smoke is visible.

Integrating Ionisation Smoke Detector (AP6-ION-INT)

This detector is suited to use in areas of transient and high smoke levels. The device will not trigger until it senses smoke continuously for at least 10 seconds.

Optical Smoke Detector (AP6-OPT)

A photosensor is fitted away from the direct path of an infra-red beam. Smoke particles which enter the chamber will scatter the beam towards the sensor and trigger an alarm. Ideal for large particle smoke, typically produced by smouldering pvc.

Fixed Temperature Heat Detector (AP6-FT8)

Ideal for areas where high temperatures are prevalent eg kitchens, boiler rooms.

Rate of Rise Heat Detector (AP6-RR6)

These detectors are designed to detect a fire condition by monitoring the rate of rise of the room temperature. The detector also has a fixed temperature element.

E I I 2 - wire detection system

EUROFIRE S e n S a i s a new conventional fire detection system specially designed for detectors and sounders to be connected to the same pair of field wires.

The Eurofire panel includes all the attributes and advantages of the standard '4-wire' panel and is available for operation in premises requiring up to 8 zones of fire cover. Panels and repeaters can be networked using the RS485 link.

Emergi-Lite joins proven advanced panel design with the pedigree of Apollo Alarm Sense detectors to produce a reliable two-wire technology system.

The Concept

A standard conventional system uses two pairs of wires (4-wire), one pair is used to connect detectors and call points, the other pair for alarm devices (sounders, bells or strobe lights).

The Eurofire-sensa uses a common pair for the connection of detectors, callpoints and alarm sounders to give the scheme designer greater choice, while retaining compliance with the relevant standards. Benefits can be seen with time saving, reduced wiring cost, and ease of installation.

Anatec Pro Discovery Anatec Pro Discovery is a 1 to 4 loop analogue addressable panel compatible with Apollo Discovery and XP95 protocols. In addition to the features of the standard panel, it offers enhanced capabilities for installations where flexability is needed and the setup requirements are more complex and involved. Highly stable loop drive capacity rated at 500mA to accommodate a high number of loop powered sounders and other devices. Device sensitivity modes: Five different operating modes can be set from the panel according to the demands of the premises. This feature is unique to Apollo Discovery devices - it is possible to programme a timed change-over between heat and smoke detection at selected times of the day or week. Adjustments are possible for temporary and short term switching which may be needed because of environmental changes. Sounder flexibility: Complex patterns can be programmed to suit the escape routing and use of the building. Zonal display: Enhanced with 32 fire and fault zonal LED indicators. Strength of processing power: All 126 addresses per loop may be used for output functions with 3 independently programmable output bits per address. Each loop is driven by a separate processor to prevent complete failure in the unlikely event of a processing device breakdown. A suite of control and shutdown functions can be set from the panel. Input - output flexibility: The panel can take up to 255 user definable inputs. Relay and two stage alarm outputs are options available via expansion boards. Other useful services and testing devices are available (refer to the Anatec Pro Discovery reference man ua I).

Networking Anatec Pro 1-4 Loop Discovery With the addition of a network card, the panel can be used as part of a global system with the facility to control and monitor a large networked site. Network cause/effect may be programmed between Anatec Pro Discovery 1-4 panels and active repeater panels. The system operates as a global communication system and does not require a master panel or computer. This approach reduces the cost and avoids the problem of a total network failure associated with master panel configuration. Up to 15 active panels or 60 loops may be used to create a network. Each panel can act independently and can be programmed to respond selectively to other panels on the network. The network card uses RS485 data communications which will transmit up to 2km. Compact network repeater panels providing all essential control and display facilities are available for manned control points.
