Frequently Asked Questions
ISO/TC 21/SC 3/WG 24 is a Subcommittee within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is named "Video fire detectors". This committee has published 2 standards.
ISO/TC 21/SC 3/WG 24 develops ISO standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 2 published standards from this subcommittee.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Subcommittee (SC) in ISO operates under a Technical Committee and focuses on a specific subset of the TC's scope. Subcommittees develop standards and technical specifications in their specialized area, reporting to their parent Technical Committee. They may also have working groups for detailed technical work.
This document specifies the design, installation, commissioning and service requirements for video fire detector systems (VFDS; see ISO/TS 7240-29), which are primarily intended to provide early detection of fire within one or more specified indoor areas for the protection of lives and equipment. The VFDS can also serve to protect from specific defined risks. The VFDS can be an independent fire detection system or can be used in conjunction with a fire detection and alarm system (FDAS; see ISO 7240‑1:2014, Figure 1).

ISO/TS 7240-29:2017 specifies requirements, test methods and performance criteria for video fire detectors (VFD), which operate in the visible spectrum, for use in fire detection and alarm systems installed in and around buildings (see ISO 7240‑1). For the testing of other types of VFD working on different principles, ISO/TS 7240-29:2017 can be used only for guidance. Detectors developed for the protection of specific risks that incorporate special characteristics (including additional features or enhanced functionality for which ISO/TS 7240-29:2017 does not define a test or assessment method) are beyond the scope of ISO/TS 7240-29:2017.
