Description of BS EN 14624:2020 2020

1.1 General

This document specifies the requirements for portable locating leak detectors and fixed gas detectors for all refrigerants.

Locating detectors used in factories for manufacturing processes are not included in the Scope of EN 14624.

1.2 Product application

This document applies to different applications and environments such as plant and machine rooms, production rooms, cold rooms, supermarkets, occupied spaces like offices and hotels.

1.3 Product performance

This document specifies minimum requirements for sensitivity, operating range, response time, environmental conditions and cross sensitivity from interference gases.

1.4 Product installation

This document gives guidance of suitable technology, location of detection points, interconnection with secondary equipment (e.g. initiation of mechanical ventilation, personnel warning, and equipment shutdown).

1.5 Service and maintenance

This document gives guidance for service and maintenance: Sensors and mechanical equipment have a limited operating life and require regular performance verification to ensure conformity.
