SR EN 50402:2006

Electrical apparatus for the detection and measurement of combustible or toxic gases or vapours or of oxygen - Requirements on the functional safety of fixed gas detection systems

This European Standard is applicable to fixed gas detection systems for the detection and measurement of flammable or toxic gases or vapours or oxygen. This European Standard supplements the requirements of the European Standards for electrical apparatus for the detection and measurement of flammable gases, vapours (e.g. EN 61779 or EN 50241), toxic gases (e.g. EN 45544) or oxygen (e.g. EN 50104). NOTE 1 These European Standards will be mentioned in the text as "metrological standards". NOTE 2 The examples above show the state of the standardisation for industrial applications at the time of publishing this European Standard. There may be other metrological standards covering other application fields, for which this standard is also applicable. NOTE 3 For fixed apparatus used for safety applications with a SIL requirement up to 1 and for portable apparatus the European Standard EN 50271 may be applied instead of this European Standard. Applying the above mentioned metrological standards will ensure the measuring performance is adequate in normal operation of a gas detection s
