Description
AUTRONICA
MANUAL CALL POINT
BF-52/0100
IP66
TA= 70°C
The Autronica BF-52/0100 is a manual call point designed for use within marine fire alarm systems, providing a direct means for crew members to manually initiate a fire alarm signal. Rated to IP66 for protection against water ingress and dust, and specified with a maximum ambient temperature of 70°C, this unit is built to perform reliably in the demanding thermal and environmental conditions found aboard commercial and offshore vessels. As a core component of a fire detection and alarm system, the manual call point plays a critical role in onboard safety, ensuring rapid human-initiated response capability where automatic detection alone may not be sufficient.
Key Features
✓ Manual call point function allows crew to trigger fire alarm signals directly, supporting rapid emergency response across the vessel.
✓ IP66-rated enclosure provides robust protection against high-pressure water jets and dust ingress, suitable for exposed or semi-exposed installation locations.
✓ Maximum ambient temperature rating of 70°C makes this unit appropriate for installation in machinery spaces, engine rooms, and other high-temperature shipboard environments.
✓ Designed for integration within Autronica fire alarm systems; compatibility with specific panels or controllers is subject to confirmation based on system configuration.
✓ Replacement and installation should follow the relevant fire alarm system maintenance procedures; suitable for use in SOLAS-compliant fire detection arrangements where applicable.
Marine Applications
✓ Merchant vessels including bulk carriers, tankers, and container ships requiring manual alarm initiation points throughout accommodation and working areas.
✓ Offshore platforms and support vessels where robust, weatherproof fire alarm components are essential in high-temperature or exposed locations.
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial vessels where elevated ambient temperatures demand a higher-rated manual call point.
✓ Passenger ferries and cruise vessels where fire alarm system redundancy and crew-accessible manual call points are a regulatory requirement.
✓ Naval auxiliaries and government vessels operating Autronica fire detection systems requiring like-for-like component replacement.
