EN 54-13 2017/2019 Approval
Fire detection equipment manufacturer Global Fire Equipment (GFE) has been awarded EN 54-13:2017+A1:2019 system compatibility approval.
An international third-party accredited laboratory awarded the approval for the company’s entry-level and high-end addressable fire detection and alarm systems. This is one of 23 standards for fire detection and alarm (product) systems (FDASs) in the EN54 series of standards. The European standards define the requirements, test methods and performance criteria required by various individual components making up FDAS. EN 54-13 is a system performance standard rather than a product standard and confirms the compatibility and connectivity of all the individual components of a FDAS. Authorities, specifiers, installers and end users are increasingly requesting EN 54-13 compliance, also in the approval requirements for commercial installations in several European countries.”
