Response time

Make sure the fire detection systems:

  • Operate in time to control or extinguish a fire, and
  • Provide a warning for emergency action and safe escape of employees, if designed to be an employee alarm and evacuation signal.

Do not delay alarms or devices initiated by fire detector actuation for more than 30 seconds unless it is necessary for the immediate safety of employees. When this delay is necessary, address it in an emergency action plan.
