Workplace atmospheres - Electrical apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours - Part 4: Guide for selection, installation, use and maintenance
EN 45544-4:2016

This European Standard gives guidance on the selection, installation, use and maintenance of electrical
apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours in
workplace atmospheres. The primary purpose of such apparatus is to measure the concentration of a toxic
gas or vapour in order to provide an exposure measurement and/or detection and warning of its presence.
This European Standard is applicable to apparatus whose primary purpose is to provide an indication, alarm
and/or other output function to give a warning of the presence of a toxic gas or vapour in the atmosphere and
in some cases to initiate automatic or manual protective actions. It is applicable to apparatus in which the
sensor automatically generates an electrical signal when gas is present.
This European Standard is not applicable, but may provide useful information, for apparatus
— used for the measurement of oxygen,
— used only in laboratories for analysis or measurement,
— used only for process measurement purposes,
— used in car parks or tunnels (fixed apparatus only),
— used in the domestic environment,
— used in environmental air pollution monitoring,
— used for the measurement of combustible gases and vapours related to the risk of explosion.
It also does not apply to open-path (line of sight) area monitors.
For apparatus used for sensing the presence of multiple gases, this European Standard applies only to the
detection of toxic gas or vapour.

Workplace Atmospheres - Part 1: Gas detectors - Performance requirements of detectors for toxic gases
EN IEC 62990-1:2022/A11:2022

This part of IEC 62990 specifies general requirements for design, function and performance, and describes the test methods that apply to portable, transportable, and fixed equipment for the detection and concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours in workplace atmospheres and other industrial and commercial applications. This document is applicable to continuously sensing equipment whose primary purpose is to provide an indication, alarm and/or other output function the purpose of which is to indicate the presence of a toxic gas or vapour in the atmosphere and in some cases to initiate automatic or manual protective action(s). It is applicable to equipment in which the sensor generates an electrical signal when gas is present.
This document applies to two types of equipment:
• Type HM (Health Monitoring) ‘occupational exposure’ equipment: For occupational exposure measurement, the performance requirements are focused on uncertainty of measurement of gas concentrations in the region of Occupational Exposure Limit Values (OELV). The upper limit of measurement will be defined by the manufacturer in accordance with 4.2.1.
• Type SM (Safety Monitoring) ‘general gas detection’ equipment: For general gas detection applications (e.g. safety warning, leak detection), the performance requirements are focused on alarm signalling. The upper limit of measurement will be defined by the manufacturer according to the intended use of the equipment. In general, the requirements for accuracy will be higher for Type HM equipment than for Type SM equipment. The same equipment may meet the requirements of both Type HM and Type SM. For equipment used for sensing the presence of multiple gases this document applies only to the detection of toxic gas or vapour.
This document is not applicable to equipment:
- with samplers and concentrators such as sorbents or paper tape having an irreversible indication;
- used for the measurement of gases and vapours related to the risk of explosion;
- used for the measurement of oxygen; – used only in laboratories for analysis or measurement;
- used only for process measurement purposes;
- used in the domestic environment;
- used in environmental air pollution monitoring;
- used for open-path (line of sight) area gas measurement;
- used for ventilation control in car parks or tunnels.
