Description of BS 60080:2020 2020

This British Standard provides guidance on the placement of permanently-installed F&G detectors, including coverage and technology selection.

NOTE 1 “Permanently-installed detection systems” include optical flame detection (including ultraviolet, infrared and imaging/visual), flammable gas/vapour detection and toxic gas detection.

This British Standard provides guidance on the most commonly used methods of mapping and/or modelling: prescriptive, volumetric-based and scenario-based.

This British Standard is applicable to applications where:

  1. optical flame detection is used as a means of detecting flaming fires in internal and external environments;

  2. a gas detection system is used as a method of explosion protection;

  3. the hazard arises from the release or accumulation of explosive gases and vapours; and

  4. the hazard arises from the release or accumulation of toxic gases.

This British Standard also provides guidance on operations, maintenance and the availability/reliability of the system to complement relevant standards.

This British Standard does not provide guidance for:

  1. addressing hazards that are a product of vehicle exhaust fumes;

  2. applications in the domestic and general public environment;

  3. applications in mining and tunnelling, heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), medical applications or environments;

  4. smoke detection; or

  5. toxic gas detection with regard to business continuity, e.g. food tainting.

Mitigation effectiveness is an important aspect of F&G detection design but is out of scope of this British Standard.

NOTE 2 Oxygen detection is typically biased towards prescriptive methods for detector coverage and is generally excluded from this British Standard, considerations regarding typical oxygen detection are described in Annex A.
