Does BS 5839-6 or is there a product standard for UK smoke/heat/multi sensor alarm that covers the following?
Smoke or heat or multi sensor alarm that would be specification suitable of an average UK house for a not frequently visited loft? (An unoccupied loft space/uninhabited space)
I assume that a multi sensor alarm would be the recommended to the limit the amount of false alarms.
Main points to consider and that SHOULD be included in the product standard
- Interlinking
- Dusty environment possibly thus dust suppression would be a must
- An operating temperature range in excess of -15 to 55°C
- Remote Hush/Test button or facility
It would need to cover the following variants
Mains power only
Mains powered with battery backup up sealed
Mains powered with battery backup up user replaceable battery
Battery powered sealed
Battery powered user replaceable battery
As always please be polite and respectful in this purely academic debate.
