EN-54 Regulations

Construction

General system requirements:

• Maximum 512 points shall be lost at one system failure (main processor failure)

• One fault in a random loop ( i.g. detector or alarm loop), shall not affect the control panel unit or any other loop • One fault in a random loop ( i.g. detector or alarm loop),

shall not affect the control panel unit or any other loop • When more than 32 points are installed in one loop,

one failure shall not cause the loss of more than 32 points

Automatic Addressing:

When powering up,

the system will automatically

find all units “ID’s”, register

and “remember”...

fast commissioning, fewer faults

and easy retrofit

SelfVerify, why?

Statistics from Offshore:

40% of all critical faults are faults on detectorchamber or electronics.

Depending of system type, some or

none of these failures are not detected.

45% of all critical faults are functions left disconnected after manual testing.

5% are detectors painted over and hence do not function.

Life Cycle Cost:

Depending on system type, test periods, etc:

Savings 30 – 70%

Same type of faults are expected on landbased systems, savings in Life Cycle Costs are however not supposed to be the same. Better service should mean savings.

Why Self Verification

onshore

Why Self Verification

onshore

• Onshore security

– Same failure rates expected

– Inhibit problem, due to testing

– Higher system reliability. Simpler and more

reliable maintenance

• Onshore cost.

– Not the same figures, but still possible to reduce

cost on service
