The Autronica BEH-30 is a Class A1 heat detector head, certified to EN54-5, forming part of the Autronica Fire and Security detection range. Designed for use with compatible base units such as the BEA-30A, it provides fixed temperature heat detection as a critical element of a vessel’s fire alarm system. Reliable early detection of abnormal heat conditions is essential for onboard fire safety, making correctly specified and maintained detector heads a key operational requirement under SOLAS fire safety regulations.
Key Features
✓ Certified to EN54-5 Class A1, confirming compliance with established European standards for heat detection performance.
✓ Designed for use with the BEA-30A base unit, ensuring correct mechanical and electrical compatibility within the Autronica Fire and Security detection system.
✓ Class A1 classification indicates a fixed temperature detector type; precise activation thresholds and response times are subject to confirmation against system configuration documentation.
✓ Suitable for installation in onboard spaces requiring heat-based detection where smoke detectors may be unsuitable, such as machinery spaces or galleys; exact area suitability subject to system design.
✓ Replacement of detector heads should follow the original system design specification to maintain fire alarm system integrity and compliance with flag state and class society requirements.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial vessels where heat detection is preferred over optical smoke detection due to ambient conditions.
✓ Galley and catering areas on passenger vessels, ferries, and cruise ships where cooking processes may produce false triggers with smoke-type detectors.
✓ Cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers requiring distributed heat detection coverage as part of a certified fire alarm network.
✓ Offshore platforms and support vessels where robust, standards-compliant fire detection equipment is mandated by classification society rules.
✓ Naval auxiliaries, coastguard vessels, and workboats operating fire detection systems based on Autronica Fire and Security equipment.
