There are two criteria necessary for each first revision to pass ballot: (1) simple majority and (2) affirmative 2 /3 vote. The mock examples below show how the calculations are determined. (1) Example for Simple Majority: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members, 11 affirmative votes are required to pass ballot. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligible to vote 2 = = 11) (2) Example for Affirmative 2 /3: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members and 1 member did not return their ballot and 2 members abstained, the number of affirmative votes required would be 12. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligible to vote 1 not returned 2 abstentions = 17 x 0.66 = = 12 ) As always please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

28 6 of /13/2015 1:36 PM First Revision No. 12-NFPA [ Section No ] All rechargeable power sources provided by the thermal imager manufacturer shall be marked with a serial number and the year and date month of manufacture The year and month of manufacture shall be separate from the serial number and shall be in MM/YYYY format Thermal imagers shall be tested for listing to ANSI/ISA , Nonincendive Electrical Equipment for Use in Class I and II, Division 2 and Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 Hazardous (Classified) Locations, and shall meet the product label (marking) requirements for at least Class I, Division 2, Groups C and D and Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G hazardous locations, and with a temperature class of T3 through T6 inclusive. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Dave Trebisacci Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Tue Jul 21 18:15:34 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: In paragraphs and , the technical committee is clarifying the intent of the label date. There are three key aspects to the proposed addition of the new 5.1.9: 1) Added text is similar to as a new paragraph under 5.1 on product label requirements. The focus of this new paragraph is compliance with the product label (marking) requirements from ANSI/ISA The rationale for this is because ANSI/ISA includes requirements for product label (marking) in addition to performance requirements. Without the addition of this new paragraph, NFPA 1801 could be mistakenly assumed to only require compliance with the performance requirements in ANSI/ISA ) Expand the referenced Division 2 certification requirement to include Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G, in addition to the existing Class I, Division 2 requirements. The rationale for this is because exposure to Class II explosive dust atmospheres (such as coal, carbon black, charcoal, coke, flour, grain, wood, and plastic dusts) is a concern for this equipment, in addition to exposure to Class I explosive gas atmospheres. Compliance with such Class II, Division 2 requirements mostly involves use of a NEMA Type 12 or better enclosure. 3) Include reference to the T3 and T4 temperature classifications between T3 and T6 that have suffixes, in addition to the existing reference to T3, T4, T5 and T6. The rationale for this is because T3A, T3B, T3C and T4A are permitted temperature classifications between T3 and T6 in both ANSI/ISA and in the NEC. See also Public Input No. 50-NFPA

The organization of the user s manual is not specified. The following checklist can help assure that the supplied documentation addresses all requirements. The column labeled Page no./paragraph should identify the page and paragraph number where the requirement in the column labeled Description is addressed. This will ensure that all requirements have been met and manufacturers may provide the table to the certification organization with their user s manual to assist with the verification of their compliance with the standard. Including this checklist, or some form of it, as part of the user s manual will also assist users in becoming familiar with the camera. Figure A Checklist.

36 2 of /13/2015 1:36 PM First Revision No. 4-NFPA [ Section No ] Information and operational materials regarding service life, replacement, and retirement considerations for thermal imagers and components shall be provided Thermal imagers shall be tested for listing to ANSI/ISA , Nonincendive Electrical Equipment for Use in Class I and II, Division 2 and Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 Hazardous (Classified) Locations, and shall meet the user information (manufacturer s instructional manual) requirements for at least Class I, Division 2, Groups C and D and Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G hazardous locations, and with a temperature class of T3 through T6 inclusive. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Dave Trebisacci Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Tue Jul 21 14:45:18 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: The technical committee is adding the term "service life" to provide further clarification to There are three key aspects to the proposed new text for 5.2.8: 1) The new added text is similar to as a new paragraph under 5.2 on user information requirements. The focus of this new requirement is compliance with the user information (manufacturer s instruction manual) requirements from ANSI/ISA The rationale for this is because compliance with ANSI/ISA includes requirements for user information (manufacturer s instruction manual), in addition to performance requirements. Without the addition of this new paragraph, NFPA 1801 could be mistakenly assumed to only require compliance with the performance requirements in ANSI/ISA ) Expand the referenced Division 2 certification requirement to include Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G, in addition to the existing Class I, Division 2 requirements. The rationale for this is because exposure to Class II explosive dust atmospheres (such as coal, carbon black, charcoal, coke, flour, grain, wood, and plastic dusts) is a concern for this equipment, in addition to exposure to Class I explosive gas atmospheres. Compliance with such Class II, Division 2 requirements mostly involves use of a NEMA Type 12 or better enclosure. 3) Include reference to the T3 and T4 temperature classifications between T3 and T6 that have suffixes, in addition to the existing reference to T3, T4, T5 and T6. The rationale for this is because T3A, T3B, T3C and T4A are permitted temperature classifications between T3 and T6 in both ANSI/ISA and in the NEC.

All thermal imagers shall have a minimum video refresh rate of 25 frames per second in both the detector and the display. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Dave Trebisacci Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Wed Jul 22 14:30:07 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: Response Message: The technical committee observed that the original intent of the document was to require video refresh rates of 30Hz or higher. This was discussed and included in the earlier drafts of the standard under development, but was not included in the final version. A low refresh rate camera will pass the NFPA 1801 image quality tests since all the NFPA testing is done on static images. A refresh rate of less than 30Hz can make navigation more difficult and may lead to firefighter disorientation.

Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Dave Trebisacci Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Wed Jul 22 14:43:29 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: NFPA 1801 requires that the thermal imager shall be provided with a method of attaching the thermal imager to the user, and the method of attachment shall not degrade the function or performance of the thermal imager but nowhere in the standard is a test conducted for this. It is important to have have the requirement in as most thermal imagers are intended to be attached to the user, possibly by a retractable lanyard or strap rather than to just be hand held. It is understood that there are several methods of attachment and it would be counterproductive to the process to have a manufacturer submit all specimens with all the attachment variations for all the testing. It is recommended that each means of attachment that a manufacturer offers be provided to the testing lab and that the testing lab simply attach them to the thermal imager as intended and then to the person to determine if either the attachment point on the thermal imager and/or the method of attachment degrades the function or performance of the thermal imager.

86 2 of /13/2015 1:36 PM First Revision No. 17-NFPA [ Section No ] Thermal imagers shall be tested for listing listed to ANSI/ISA , Nonincendive Electrical Equipment for Use in Class I and II, Division 2 and Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 Hazardous (Classified) Locations, and shall meet the performance (test) requirements for at least Class I, Division 2, Groups C and D and Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G hazardous locations, and with a Temperature Class temperature class within the range of T3 or T4 or T5 or through T6 inclusive. For the purpose of the impact test referenced in 15.4 of ANSI/ISA , NFPA 1801 shall be considered the applicable standard for products in unclassified locations.assessment shall include all user removable parts in isolation and the action of removing them from the camera in the powered and unpowered state. Where the use of a tool secured feature is relied upon to meet the ANSI/ISA compliance, and this feature is not engaged, the camera shall inform the user by way of a message that prevents normal use of the camera. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Dave Trebisacci Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Wed Jul 22 09:33:24 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: The technical committee believes that there are three key aspects to this proposed revision: 1) The text of paragraph to focus on performance (test) requirements from ANSI/ISA The rationale for this is because, while compliance with ANSI/ISA includes requirements for product label, user information and design, in addition to performance requirements, this chapter only addresses performance requirements. Separate proposals are being made to add similar text under Chapters 5 and 6 so that it cannot be mistakenly assumed that only compliance with the performance requirements in ANSI/ISA is required. 2) Expand the referenced Division 2 certification requirement to include Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G, in addition to the existing Class I, Division 2 requirements. The rationale for this is because exposure to Class II explosive dust atmospheres (such as coal, carbon black, charcoal, coke, flour, grain, wood, and plastic dusts) is a concern for this equipment, in addition to exposure to Class I explosive gas atmospheres. Compliance with such Class II, Division 2 requirements mostly involves use of a NEMA Type 12 or better enclosure. 3) Include reference to the T3 and T4 temperature classifications between T3 and T6 that have suffixes, in addition to the existing reference to T3, T4, T5 and T6. The rationale for this is because T3A, T3B, T3C and T4A are permitted temperature classifications between T3 and T6 in both ANSI/ISA and in the NEC. See also Public Input No. 50-NFPA The TC also believes that locking features that rely on the use of special tools to limit the ability to perform simple tasks such as battery replacement are often ignored by users that have not read the small print hidden in the product user guide. However the certification bodies are much more comfortable with this approach and adherence is recognized within the high risk Petrochemical / Mining Industries.
