BDH-300
HEAT DETECTOR
PN: 0002201434600947
SW: 2-41
The Autronica BDH-300 is a marine-grade heat detector forming part of a shipboard fire alarm and detection system. Designed to respond to abnormal rises in ambient temperature, it provides reliable thermal detection in areas where smoke-based sensing may be less effective or unsuitable. As a component within the fire alarm system category, the BDH-300 plays a critical role in early warning and life safety compliance onboard commercial and industrial vessels.
Key Features
✓ Functions as a dedicated heat detector, triggering alarms in response to thermal conditions consistent with fire development — suitable where smoke detectors may produce false alerts.
✓ Manufactured by Autronica Fire and Security AS, a recognised name in marine fire detection; software version 2-41 is noted, subject to confirmation for compatibility with specific panel revisions.
✓ Intended for integration with Autronica fire alarm panel systems; exact loop or protocol compatibility should be confirmed against the installed control system configuration.
✓ Suitable for installation in machinery spaces, engine rooms, and other shipboard areas where heat detection is the preferred sensing method; SOLAS fire detection requirements may apply depending on vessel class and flag state.
✓ Serves as a direct replacement component within existing Autronica detection loops, supporting scheduled maintenance, survey readiness, and system continuity without full panel overhaul.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers where heat detection is specified over smoke-based alternatives.
✓ Offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels requiring compliant fire detection across high-temperature or contaminated-air environments.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels with distributed Autronica fire alarm systems covering multiple detection zones.
✓ Naval auxiliaries and coastguard vessels where reliable thermal sensing is critical to damage control and crew safety protocols.
✓ Newbuild and retrofit fire alarm installations requiring addressable or conventional heat detection points compatible with Autronica control infrastructure.
