It takes
11、account of AmendmentNo. 1, 1972 (AMD 1064) and of Amendment No. 2, 1973 (AMD 1218). It is being published in a number of separate Sections, as follows. Part 1: Requirements for systems with audible signalling only; 1.1: Installation; 1.2: Maintenance and records; Part 2: Requirements for systems wit
12、h remote signalling; 2.1: Installation; 2.2: Maintenance and records; Part 3: Requirements for detection devices, consisting of a number of separate Sections (3.1 to 3.14). The specifications for detection devices (including this Section of BS 4737) are to be read in conjunction with Section 1.1 or
13、Section 2.1, as appropriate. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of p
14、ages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1and 2, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover.
15、BS 4737-3.8:1978 BSI 12-1998 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies the general requirements for volumetric capacitive detectors to be used in intruder alarm systems in buildings. 2 References The titles of the standards publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cove
16、r. 3 Definition For the purposes of this British Standard, the following definition applies in addition to those given in BS4737-1.1 and/or BS4737-2.1. volumetric capacitive detector a detection device designed to generate an alarm condition in response to the change (or rate of change) in capacitan
17、ce when a person enters and moves in the area or volume of coverage 4 Area or volume of coverage 4.1 The area or volume of coverage of the detector is that area or volume within which the entry and movement of a 60 20kg person walking at any speed between 0.3m/s and 0.6m/s through a distance of 2m c
18、auses the detector to generate an alarm condition or to signal to a processing device. The installer shall identify the area or volume of coverage in the equipment record (see7.1 of BS 4737-2.2:1977). NOTEIt should be recognized that the area or volume effectively protected by the device may extend
19、beyond the stated area or volume of coverage as a result of the judicious siting of the detector in relation to points of entry to the premises. Alteration of the position of objects within the area or volume of coverage may cause significant changes in the area or volume protected. 4.2 A method of
20、indication shall be provided to enable the subscriber to check the area or volume of coverage before the system is closed. 5 Test period Except when immediate connection is needed for urgent security reasons, or when the detector replaces a similar existing unit, the detector shall not be connected
21、to an alarm system which is extended to the police until the detector has operated in the installation for at least 7 days without generating an unwanted alarm. 6 Power supply An alarm condition shall be generated if the voltage of the power supply to the detector is reduced sufficiently to impair t
22、he performance of the detector. 7 Environment The requirements of this British Standard shall be met by the detector under any combination of the following environmental conditions. 8 Interference The detector shall be adequately protected against any externally-generated radio-frequency interferenc
23、e and/or mains-borne interference which may normally be expected to occur within the working environment. 9 Housing The detector (except the sensor itself) and any processing device shall be housed in one or more containers. It shall not be possible to open the container(s) by the normal means of ac
24、cess without operating an anti-tamper device. If the equipment is housed in separate containers, the inter-connection(s) shall be electrically protected. Any means for adjusting the equipment shall be enclosed within the container(s). 10 Marking Text deleted. Temperature: 0 C to 40 C Relative humidi
