The Autronica Autroflame 20/20L-C is a flame detector designed for use within marine fire alarm and fire detection systems. It detects the optical signature of open flames and provides a rapid, reliable signal to the fire alarm control panel, enabling fast response in safety-critical environments. Rated for operation across an ambient temperature range of -40°C to 70°C and certified to EEXD II B T5 under EN 50-014 and EN 50-018, this detector is suited to hazardous and demanding onboard locations where conventional detectors may not be appropriate.
Key Features
✓ Flame detection functionality with optical sensing, rated at a maximum supply voltage of 32V DC and maximum current of 0.15A, as specified in the original product data.
✓ Certified to EEXD II B T5, EN 50-014 and EN 50-018, confirming suitability for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in compliance with recognised European standards.
✓ Dual ingress protection ratings of IP66 and IP67, providing resistance to both high-pressure water jets and temporary immersion — essential for harsh marine environments.
✓ Wide ambient temperature tolerance of -40°C to 70°C makes this unit suitable for installation in engine rooms, machinery spaces, and exposed or unheated compartments aboard vessels.
✓ Designed for integration within Autronica fire detection systems; compatibility with specific panels or controllers should be confirmed against vessel documentation and system configuration.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial vessels, tankers, and offshore support vessels where hydrocarbon flame detection is operationally critical.
✓ Pump rooms and cargo handling areas on tankers and chemical carriers operating in hazardous zone classifications requiring EEXD-rated equipment.
✓ Offshore platforms and FPSO vessels where open-flame detection forms part of an integrated fire and gas detection system.
✓ Naval and coast guard vessels requiring robust, wide-temperature-range flame detection capable of operating in extreme climatic conditions.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels where fire alarm system reliability and redundancy are mandated under SOLAS fire safety regulations.
