BASE ASSEMBLY
517.050.401
The Tyco Safety Products M600M/M900M Base Assembly is a detector mounting base designed for use within marine fire alarm systems. Serving as the interface between the detection device and the fixed wiring installation, the base assembly provides a secure, stable connection point for compatible detectors in the M600M and M900M series. As a fundamental component of a vessel’s fire detection infrastructure, reliable base assemblies are essential to maintaining system integrity, ensuring detectors remain correctly seated and electrically connected under the demanding conditions of the marine environment. Proper installation and maintenance of these components directly supports compliance with onboard fire safety requirements.
Key Features
✓ Functions as the detector mounting base for the Tyco M600M and M900M series, providing secure mechanical and electrical connection for compatible detection heads.
✓ Specific electrical ratings, dimensions, and certifications are subject to confirmation based on configuration — consult technical documentation or contact support for detailed specifications.
✓ Compatible with Tyco M600M and M900M series detectors; suitability for specific fire alarm control panels or loop configurations should be verified against system design documentation.
✓ Designed for installation in typical fire alarm detector mounting locations onboard vessels; installation environment suitability, including exposure to moisture or vibration, depends on configuration and vessel requirements.
✓ Replacement of base assemblies is a routine service consideration in maintaining fire detection system reliability, ensuring detector contact integrity is preserved throughout the system’s service life.
Marine Applications
✓ Fixed fire detection systems aboard commercial cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers requiring reliable detector base mounting throughout accommodation and machinery spaces.
✓ Passenger vessel fire alarm networks where consistent detector seating across a large number of detector points is critical to system performance.
✓ Offshore platforms and support vessels incorporating Tyco fire alarm systems as part of their integrated fire & gas detection infrastructure.
✓ Naval and government vessels requiring dependable fire detection hardware in line with onboard safety and operational standards.
✓ Retrofit and maintenance projects aboard vessels upgrading or replacing aging fire alarm detector bases within existing Tyco M600M or M900M system installations.
