The objective of this Standard is to specify requirements, test methods and performance criteria for fire detection control and indicating equipment (FDCIE) for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems installed in buildings.
This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee FP-002, Fire Detection, Warning, Control and Intercom Systems, to supersede AS 7240.2—2004, Fire detection and alarm systems, Part 2: Control and indicating equipment (ISO 7240‑2:2003, MOD). The objective of this Standard is to specify requirements, test methods and performance criteria for fire detection control and indicating equipment (FDCIE) for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems installed in buildings. This Standard is an adoption with national modifications, and has been reproduced from, ISO 7240-2:2017, Fire detection and alarm systems — Part 2: Fire detection control and indicating equipment. The modifications are additional requirements and are set out in Appendix ZZ, which has been added at the end of the source text. Appendix ZZ lists the variations to ISO 7240‑2:2017 for the application of this Standard in Australia. Users should note that references to AS 7240.2—2004 contained in Table 2.1 of AS 4428.3—2010, Fire detection, warning, control and intercom systems — Control and indicating equipment, Part 3: Fire Brigade Panel can be used interchangeably with the renumbered but technically equivalent clauses in this Standard.
