BGA-500 REV.5 SW 1.8
The Autronica BG-201 is an infrared flame detector designed for use within marine fire alarm systems. Operating on infrared sensing technology, it detects the characteristic radiation emitted by open flames, providing early-stage fire detection in spaces where conventional smoke or heat detectors may be less effective. As a core component of shipboard fire alarm infrastructure, the BG-201 plays a critical role in protecting vessel personnel, cargo, and machinery spaces in compliance with international maritime safety requirements.
Key Features
✓ Infrared flame detection technology with a ±30° detection angle, enabling wide-area coverage within the monitored space.
✓ Certified to EN54-10:2002+A1:2005 Class 1, 2 & 3 and EN54-17:2005, confirming compliance with recognised European fire detection standards.
✓ Compatible with the BGA-500 fire alarm control system (REV.5, SW 1.8), as indicated by the original product data; compatibility with other Autronica panels subject to confirmation.
✓ Suitable for installation in engine rooms, machinery spaces, pump rooms, and other high-risk onboard locations where flame detection is operationally critical and SOLAS compliance is required.
✓ Intended as a direct replacement unit within existing Autronica fire detection installations; always verify system software revision and detector addressing requirements prior to fitment.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard commercial vessels, tankers, and offshore support vessels where hydrocarbon fire risk is elevated.
✓ Pump rooms and cargo handling areas on tankers and chemical carriers requiring dedicated flame detection coverage.
✓ Passenger vessels and ro-ro ferries where fire alarm system integrity is subject to rigorous flag state and class society oversight.
✓ Offshore platforms and FPSOs integrating Autronica fire alarm systems across multiple detection zones.
✓ Dry cargo vessels and bulk carriers utilising centralised fire detection panels requiring zone-specific infrared flame detection devices.
