SI 1220 part 5 – Fire detection systems: Self-contained smoke detectors (302 page(s), in English; 12 page(s), in Hebrew)

Revision of the Mandatory Standard SI 1220 part 5 dealing with self-contained smoke detectors for fire detection systems. This draft standard revision adopts both the American Standard ANSI/UL 217 – Eight Edition: October 30, 2015 and all its updates up to and including 23 November 2016, and the European Standards EN 14604: July 2005 and AC: October 2008. The major changes included in this new revision are due to the update of the American Standard as follows:

·         Adds new performance requirements and new features that can be combined into the smoke detectors;

·         Adds to the standard's scope also multi-function smoke detectors, such as integrated gas or heat detectors;

·         Adds new requirements for smoke detectors' sensitivity over time. The adopted European route of compliance implemented in this new draft revision will enter into force 1 year after publication in Israel Official Gazette, and the American route of compliance will enter into force two years after the publication.
