10、ion) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be r
11、epresented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards
12、 are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an Internat
13、ional Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

21、order to enable such person(s) to take appropriate measures. This part of ISO 7240 allows manufacturers to specify visual alarm devices in terms of the range at which the required illumination is met. Three classes of device are defined, one for ceiling mounted devices, one for wall mounted devices
22、and an open class. The maximum range of the visual alarm device is tested by measuring the light output in a part of the hemisphere surrounding it to determine its light distribution. As the light output of some visual alarm devices can change over time due, for example, to the effect of self-heatin
23、g, a specific test checks that the variation of light output over time is within acceptable limits. This part of ISO 7240 gives common requirements for the construction and robustness of visual alarm devices as well as for their performance under climatic, mechanical and electrical interference cond
24、itions which are likely to occur in the service environment. Visual alarm devices can be classified in one of three application environment types.vi ISO 2013 All rights reserved INTERNATIONAL ST ANDARD ISO 7240-23:2013(E) Fire detection and alarm systems Part 23: Visual alarm devices 1 Scope This pa
25、rt of ISO 7240 specifies the requirements, test methods and performance criteria for visual alarm devices in a fixed installation intended to signal a visual warning of a fire between a fire detection and alarm system and occupants in and around buildings. This part of ISO 7240 specifies visual alar
26、m devices for three types of application environment. It is only applicable to pulsing or flashing visual alarm devices, for example xenon beacons or rotating beacons. It is not applicable to devices giving continuous light output. This part of ISO 7240 is not intended to cover visual indicators, fo
27、r example, on detectors or on the control and indicating equipment. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
