CONSILIUM MARINE & SAFETY AB
SALWICO
HEAT DETECTOR HC100 A2
PART NO: 038000
REV. A5 CLASS: A2
The Consilium Salwico HC100 A2 is a Class A2 rated heat detector engineered for use within shipboard fire alarm systems. Designed to detect abnormal rises in ambient temperature, this unit triggers an alarm signal when conditions exceed the threshold defined by its A2 classification. It forms a critical component of a vessel’s fire detection network, supporting early warning capability in spaces where smoke-based detection may be less effective or unsuitable. As part of the fire alarm system category, it plays a direct role in crew safety, vessel protection, and compliance with international maritime fire safety requirements.
Key Features
✓ Class A2 rated heat detector, as specified in the original product data, providing fixed-temperature and rate-of-rise thermal detection suitable for marine environments.
✓ Manufactured by Consilium Marine & Safety AB under the Salwico product range — a globally recognised brand in marine fire detection and safety systems.
✓ Compatible with Salwico fire alarm panels and control systems; precise panel compatibility should be confirmed against the vessel’s installed system configuration.
✓ Suitable for installation in machinery spaces, engine rooms, and other onboard areas where heat-based detection is operationally appropriate; installation conditions subject to system design.
✓ Carries part number 038000 at Revision A5, enabling accurate identification for planned maintenance, service replacement, or system upgrade programmes.
Marine Applications
✓ Merchant vessels including bulk carriers, tankers, and container ships requiring SOLAS-compliant fire detection across accommodation and machinery spaces.
✓ Offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels where robust heat detection is required in high-ambient-temperature zones.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels where multi-zone fire alarm systems incorporate heat detectors as part of a layered detection strategy.
✓ Naval auxiliaries and government vessels operating Salwico-based fire alarm infrastructure requiring OEM-compatible replacement components.
✓ Superyachts and specialist vessels fitted with Consilium Salwico fire safety systems during newbuild or refit programmes.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
Marine engineers and safety officers specify the Consilium Salwico HC100 A2 because it is an OEM-sourced component that integrates directly with existing Salwico fire alarm infrastructure, reducing commissioning risk and maintaining system integrity during planned maintenance or emergency replacement.
Ideal For
Suitable for fleet operators, ship managers, vessel owners, and marine contractors maintaining or upgrading Consilium Salwico fire alarm systems across commercial shipping, offshore, passenger, and specialist vessel sectors.
Technical Support
Technical support is available for this heat detector and the wider Salwico fire alarm system. Assistance covers onboard installation guidance, component-level troubleshooting, and remote diagnostic support to help resolve operational issues efficiently.
