0A2035470B
The Tyco Safety Products 811H is a fixed-temperature heat detector forming part of the MX addressable fire alarm system. Designed to detect abnormal heat conditions within protected spaces, it plays a critical role in the early warning chain of a vessel’s fire detection and alarm system. Heat detectors of this type are commonly installed in machinery spaces, engine rooms, galleys, and other areas where smoke-based detection may be prone to false alarms, making them an operationally dependable choice for shipboard fire safety compliance.
Key Features
✓ Fixed-temperature heat detection designed for reliable, stable response to elevated ambient temperatures in protected marine spaces.
✓ Specific voltage ratings, response thresholds, and certification details are subject to confirmation based on configuration and installation context.
✓ Compatible with the Tyco MX addressable fire alarm panel range — system compatibility and protocol support should be verified against the installed panel version.
✓ Suited for installation in areas where environmental conditions may affect smoke detector performance, including engine rooms and galley spaces, with mounting arrangements typical for SOLAS-compliant fire detection layouts.
✓ Intended as a direct replacement component within existing MX system installations, supporting routine maintenance and system integrity over the vessel’s operational life.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial cargo vessels, tankers, and offshore support vessels where heat-based detection is preferred.
✓ Galley and catering spaces on passenger ferries, cruise ships, and ro-ro vessels requiring robust fire detection in high-temperature environments.
✓ Pump rooms and auxiliary machinery spaces on product tankers and chemical carriers where fire risk requires dedicated heat monitoring.
✓ Accommodation and service spaces on offshore platforms and FPSOs as part of an integrated addressable fire alarm network.
✓ Newbuild and retrofit fire alarm system installations requiring MX-compatible addressable detectors across a range of vessel classes.
