Alarm systems - Intrusion and hold-up systems - Part 2-10: Intrusion detectors - Lock state contacts (magnetic)

Scope

This Technical Specification provides for security grades 1 to 4, (see EN 50131-1) specific or non-specific wired or wire-free lock state contacts, and includes the requirements for four environmental classes covering applications in internal and outdoor locations as specified in EN 50130-5. The purpose of a lock state contact (magnetic) is to detect the lock/unlock state only or the lock/unlock state combined with the opening status/displacement from the defined closed position of a window or door simultaneously. The lock state contact comprises two separate contact-less units, the active connection between these units is at least one magnetic or electromagnetic based field. Separating the two units disturbs the connection and produces an intruder signal or message. A detector will fulfil all the requirements of the specified grade. Functions additional to the mandatory functions specified in this Technical Specification may be included in the detector, providing they do not influence the correct operation of the mandatory functions. The combination of the two separate units of the lock state contact is referred to in the body of this Technical Specification as the detector. This Technical Specification does not apply to system interconnections.
