入侵和紧急报警系统 入侵探测器
GB 10408-2025 is a current mandatory Chinese national standard for Intrusion and hold-up systems—Intrusion detector. It appears in the Environment compliance cluster with a product safety focus and has an implementation date of Mar 1, 2026.
Applicability depends on product scope, certification route, competent authority notices and transition rules. Requst for the translation or verify source before using this record in a compliance decision.
Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to the design, manufacture, and inspection of intrusion detectors used in intrusion and hold-up alarm systems. It covers a wide range of detector technologies, including ultrasonic, microwave, passive infrared (PIR), glass break, magnetic switch, vibration, active beam, and radar detectors. It is mandatory for all manufacturers producing intrusion detectors for the Chinese market. The standard does not apply to alarm control panels or other non-detection components of the system.
Technical requirements
GB 10408-2025 establishes comprehensive technical requirements for various types of intrusion detectors. It introduces a new product classification and grading system, categorizing detectors into security grades 1 to 4 based on their application and reliability. The standard specifies general requirements for appearance, enclosure protection (IP ratings), alarm signal duration, and tamper protection. Manufacturers must ensure their products meet the specific grade requirements to achieve compliance. The standard details specific performance criteria for different detector technologies. For instance, passive infrared and microwave detectors must meet precise detection performance metrics, including boundary crossing and fast movement detection. Glass break detectors are required to distinguish between actual glass breakage and other impacts, while magnetic switch detectors have defined detection gap requirements. Additional requirements are provided for optical fiber vibration, tension electronic fences, and radar detectors. Furthermore, the standard outlines stringent environmental adaptability and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements. Detectors must withstand various climate conditions (temperature, humidity, salt spray) and mechanical stresses (vibration, shock) without generating false alarms. Products must also demonstrate stability by operating continuously for 168 hours without false or missed alarms. Safety requirements align with GB 16796, ensuring electrical safety for all devices.
Testing methods
The standard defines rigorous testing procedures to verify compliance. Key tests include walk tests for PIR and microwave detectors using a standard test target with specific temperature and movement parameters. Glass break tests involve dropping steel balls from specified heights onto various glass types. Magnetic switch tests measure the detection gap, while vibration detector tests use simulated impact environments. Environmental tests follow GB/T 15211, and EMC tests follow GB/T 30148 to ensure no false alarms occur during interference. All testing must be conducted in controlled environments with precise temperature and humidity conditions.
FAQs
What products are regulated under GB 10408-2025?
GB 10408-2025 regulates intrusion detectors used in intrusion and hold-up alarm systems, including ultrasonic, microwave, passive infrared, glass break, magnetic switch, vibration, active beam, and radar detectors.
What are the security grades defined in GB 10408-2025?
The standard classifies intrusion detectors into security grades 1, 2, 3, and 4, ranging from low to high security levels. Each grade has specific mandatory and optional features regarding event handling and signal output.
Does GB 10408-2025 replace previous standards?
Yes, GB 10408-2025 consolidates and replaces multiple previous standards, including GB 10408.1-2000 to GB 10408.5-2000, GB 10408.6-2009, and several others related to specific detector types. Manufacturers must transition to the new unified standard for compliance.
