What is BS EN 12094-6 – Requirements and test methods non-electrical disable devices about?
BS EN 12094-6 discusses components for gas extinguishing systems. The aim of the BS EN 12094 series is to ensure the correct operation of gas extinguishing systems by providing the manufacturer with the best industry requirements and test methods to avoid any hazardous situation. BS EN 12094-6 is a sixth of the part of the BS EN 12094 series of standards that specifies requirements and test methods for non-electrical disable devices for CO2, Inert gas- or Halocarbon gas fire extinguishing systems.

Why should you use BS EN 12094-6 - Requirements and test methods for non-electrical disable devices?
Non-electrical disable device is a component that prevents any kind of unintentional release (automatic or manual) of fire extinguishing systems during maintenance work in the protected room or object, without disabling the fire detection and alarm functions. To prevent hazardous situations it is necessary that gas extinguishing systems and their accessories are designed and built according to technical standards.
BS EN 12094-6 provides you with functional requirements and test methods that can be followed while manufacturing valves and their actuators. This will ensure that gas extinguishing systems operate appropriately and are reliable preventing serious injuries while operating gas extinguishing systems.
