It applies to accelerators used with dry pipe alarm valves and dry/wet alarm valves.

The requirements cover appearance, a rated working pressure of at least 1.2 MPa, corrosion-resistant materials, components and elastomeric sealing elements, leakage and deformation at twice the rated working pressure for 5 min, an operating time not exceeding 30 s, air static pressure of 0.7 MPa, an equalisation time not exceeding 3 min, anti-flooding devices and an 800 °C fire resistance test; Clause 5 gives the matching test methods and Clause 6 the factory and type inspection, the sampling scheme (Figure 1) and the judgement rules.

Clauses 4 and 6 are mandatory and the rest is recommended. It was developed from GA 80-1994, which it repeals, adding requirements on packaging, transport and storage.
