Description
CONSILIUM
SALWICO AC-IR-3FQ
P/N: 5200235-00A
CONVENTIONAL DETECTOR BASE
IP67
VOLTAGE: 20÷38 VDC
The Consilium Salwico AC-IR-3FQ is a conventional detector base designed to interface with compatible fire detectors as part of a shipboard fire alarm system. Rated IP67 for ingress protection and operating across a supply voltage range of 20 to 38 VDC, this base provides a robust and reliable mounting and connection point for detectors in demanding marine environments. As a critical component within the fire detection loop, the detector base ensures consistent signal transmission between the detector head and the conventional fire alarm panel, supporting early warning capability and compliance with onboard fire safety requirements.
Key Features
✓ Conventional detector base compatible with the Consilium Salwico AC-IR-3FQ detector, providing secure mechanical and electrical connection for fire detection applications.
✓ IP67 ingress protection rating, making it suitable for installation in areas exposed to water, moisture, or wash-down conditions typical of marine environments.
✓ Operating voltage range of 20 to 38 VDC, consistent with conventional fire alarm loop supply standards found across a wide range of marine panel configurations.
✓ Designed for use within conventional fire alarm systems; panel and loop compatibility should be confirmed against vessel-specific fire detection system documentation.
✓ Serves as a direct replacement or service part for existing Consilium Salwico installations, supporting maintenance programmes and minimising system downtime during detector servicing.
Marine Applications
✓ Installed aboard merchant vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers as part of fixed conventional fire alarm and detection systems in accommodation, machinery, and cargo spaces.
✓ Used on offshore platforms and support vessels where IP-rated fire detection components are required in areas subject to environmental exposure.
✓ Suitable for passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels where fire detection loop integrity is essential to SOLAS-compliant fire safety arrangements.
✓ Applied in engine rooms, pump rooms, and other spaces aboard naval auxiliaries and workboats where conventional detector bases must withstand harsh operating conditions.
✓ Utilised during planned maintenance periods, dry-dock refits, and fire system upgrades where original Consilium Salwico components are specified for like-for-like replacement.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
Marine engineers specify the Consilium Salwico AC-IR-3FQ detector base for its proven ingress protection, compatibility with established Salwico conventional fire alarm systems, and its straightforward replacement profile — reducing time spent on fire detection maintenance without compromising system integrity.
Ideal For
Merchant vessels, tankers, bulk carriers, passenger ferries, ro-ro vessels, offshore support vessels, workboats, and any platform operating a Consilium Salwico conventional fire alarm system requiring certified detector base components.
