This document defines the terms and definitions of point type heat fire detectors (hereinafter referred to as the "detectors"), specifies their classification, requirements, inspection rules, markings, and instructions for use, and also describes the corresponding test methods.
This document is applicable to the design, manufacture and inspection of point type heat fire detector products used in industrial and civil buildings.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
typical application temperature
ambient temperature at which a point type heat fire detector is capable of operating stably for a long period of time under its monitoring condition
3.2
maximum application temperature
ambient temperature at which a point type heat fire detector is capable of operating stably for a short period of time under its monitoring condition
3.3
static response temperature
temperature at which a point type heat fire detector is capable of sending out a fire alarm signal when the temperature raises at an extremely small rate
3.4
resettable detector
detector that is capable of returning from an alarm condition to the monitoring condition without the need for component replacement following a response and upon cessation of the condition triggering the response
3.5
non-resettable detector
detector that is incapable of returning to its monitoring condition following a response
4 Classification
Point type heat fire detectors shall conform to one or more of the categories among A1, A2, B, C, D, E, F, and G listed in Table 1. S-type or R-type detectors may be designated by appending the respective letter S or R to the aforementioned category symbols (e.g., A1S, BR, etc.). For detectors with field-settable categories, the category shall be denoted by the letter P in the product marking, with all settable categories (e.g., A1R, BR, BS, etc.) indicated, and the currently set category shall be clearly identifiable.
Note 1: S-type detectors do not send out a fire alarm signal until the minimum static response temperature is attained, even at higher temperature rise rates.
Note 2: R-type detectors have a differential temperature characteristic that allows them to meet the response time requirements when the temperature rises at high rates, even from a temperature below the typical application temperature.
