The Autronica Autro-Point HC200B1A2W1 is a fixed-point methane gas detector designed for continuous monitoring of combustible gas concentrations in demanding marine environments. As a core component within shipboard fire alarm and gas detection systems, it provides early warning of methane accumulation in spaces where flammable gas leaks present a significant safety and operational risk. Reliable gas detection is fundamental to SOLAS-compliant safety arrangements aboard vessels, making this detector an operationally critical element of the onboard fire and gas system.
Key Features
✓ Fixed-point methane (CH4) gas detection with continuous monitoring capability, designed for integration into Autronica fire and gas detection systems.
✓ Electrical rating of 18–32 VDC with a maximum power consumption of 10 W; ambient temperature range of -40°C to +75°C (T4 classification) and T5 classification applicable for -50°C to +40°C operating conditions.
✓ Dual M25 cable entry points provide flexible wiring installation options suited to marine panel and junction box arrangements typical in shipboard installations.
✓ Rated UM=250V, supporting installation within standard marine electrical distribution environments; temperature classifications T4 and T5 indicate suitability for hazardous area installations subject to project-specific confirmation.
✓ Direct replacement or service spare for Autronica Autro-Point gas detection systems; compatibility with specific control panels and system configurations should be confirmed against the vessel’s installed system documentation.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard LNG carriers, gas tankers, and dual-fuel vessels where methane leak detection is critical to safe operation.
✓ Cargo pump rooms and compressor spaces on gas-carrying vessels requiring continuous flammable gas monitoring in line with classification society requirements.
✓ Accommodation and utility spaces on vessels operating with LNG fuel systems, where methane ingress monitoring is required as part of the fire and gas safety system.
✓ Offshore support vessels, platform supply vessels, and OSVs fitted with Autronica gas detection systems requiring detector replacement or system expansion.
✓ Any vessel type where fixed gas detection forms part of the integrated fire alarm and gas detection system, including cruise ships, ferries, and specialist workboats.
