    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines requirements, test methods and performance criteria for point-type multi-sensor fire detectors for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems installed in and around buildings, incorporating in one mechanical enclosure at least one optical or ionization smoke sensor and at least one carbon monoxide (CO) sensor and optionally one or more heat sensors, utilizing the combination of the detected phenomena.
