Alarm Systems - Hazard Warning Systems - Part 1: Hazard warning systems for use in residential buildings - System requirements

This document applies to the planning, installation, operation, and maintenance of hazard warning systems (HWS) for use in residential buildings, flats, and rooms with flat-like use. It also specifies basic requirements and provisions for reliable interconnection of safety and security technology with smart home systems or active assisted living (AAL) systems and applications. Furthermore, it describes basic requirements for devices and systems or references to respective standards and specifications. This document does not override or in any way limit existing European standards. Hazard warning systems are used for early warning of persons to avoid or reduce personal injury and damage to property, which can result from intrusion, hold-up, fire, dangerous gases, and water ingress as well as technical defects of building services. HWS can also be used in residential properties in the event of duress/harassment and, for communication with persons in emergency situations who are present in the property covered by the HWS or to initiate controls in building services because of the aforementioned events. HWS can be designed in compliance with this standard as a self-contained system, or as HWS with connection of Smart Home components, or as a HWS that is a Smart Home system with integrated security applications. For the purposes of this document, the term “smart home” includes all networked systems and or web-based technical processes or IoT devices that are used in residential properties. This includes also, for example, remotely controllable devices such as cameras, entertainment electronics, household appliances, heating, air conditioning, ventilation (HVAC), electrical control components, door/gate/window openings and others. For the purposes of this document, AAL systems are assistance systems that support everyday life and are usually used in combination with services to provide needs-based support in the home environment for people with special needs. In most cases, AAL systems are web- or IoT-based. AAL systems and components are tailored to the individual needs of their users and their living environment and are networked with the building technology and security technology (in this case the HWS) for safety reasons to provide the user with the best possible support to make sure they react appropriately and in time to the situation in the event of an emergency. The task of AAL systems often includes recognizing critical health conditions of their users and initiating appropriate measures. For the purposes of this document, the term networking also means any integration of systems into the HWS and in many cases the connection to smart devices (e.g. smartphone, tablet, PC) via the Internet in conjunction with a specific application software (app). This standard can also be applied when systems are connected to the HWS and themselves use a connection to the Internet to outsource functional intelligence and utilize opportunities to automate processes across application areas, which can be either local, remote or a combination. Any notification or change in status of the HWS or its components can optionally be sent to other persons present in the building and/or to other locations/systems (e.g. emergency call centres [ERC]).

Nuclear energy - Determination of neutron fluence and displacement per atom (dpa) in reactor vessel and internals (ISO/DIS 19226:2026)

ISO 19226:2017 provides a procedure for the evaluation of irradiation data in the region between the reactor core and the inside surface of the containment vessel, through the pressure vessel and the reactor cavity, between the ends of active fuel assemblies, given the neutron source in the core. NOTE These irradiation data could be neutron fluence or displacements per atom (dpa), and Helium production. The evaluation employs both neutron flux computations and measurement data from in-vessel and cavity dosimetry, as appropriate. This document applies to pressurized water reactors (PWRs), boiling water reactors (BWRs), and pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWRs). ISO 19226:2017 also provides a procedure for evaluating neutron damage properties at the reactor pressure vessel and internal components of PWRs, BWRs, and PHWRs. Damage properties are focused on atomic displacement damage caused by direct displacements of atoms due to collisions with neutrons and indirect damage caused by gas production, both of which are strongly dependent on the neutron energy spectrum. Therefore, for a given neutron fluence and neutron energy spectrum, calculations of the total accumulated number of atomic displacements are important data to be used for reactor life management.
