Description
AUTRONICA
BWA-100
DETECTOR BASE
The Autronica BWA-100 is a detector base forming part of a marine fire alarm system, designed to provide a reliable and secure mounting point for compatible fire detectors installed throughout a vessel. As a foundational component within the detection loop, the base ensures consistent electrical contact and mechanical stability, which is critical to maintaining the integrity of fire detection coverage onboard. Proper functioning of detector bases directly supports compliance with SOLAS fire safety requirements and the overall reliability of the ship’s fire alarm network.
Key Features
✓ Provides a secure mechanical and electrical interface between the fire detector head and the alarm system wiring circuit.
✓ Specific voltage ratings, dimensions, and certifications are subject to confirmation based on configuration and installation documentation.
✓ Designed for compatibility within Autronica fire alarm systems; suitability with specific panels or control units should be verified against the vessel’s system layout.
✓ Suitable for installation in typical shipboard environments; exact area classification and mounting requirements depend on the vessel configuration and applicable regulations.
✓ A drop-in replacement component for servicing or upgrading existing Autronica fire detection installations, minimising system downtime during maintenance.
Marine Applications
✓ Accommodation and crew quarters fire detection systems on merchant vessels and passenger ships.
✓ Engine room and machinery space fire alarm loops where robust detector mounting is essential.
✓ Offshore platforms and FPSOs requiring certified fire detection infrastructure throughout hazardous and non-hazardous zones.
✓ Cargo hold and service area fire detection networks on bulk carriers, tankers, and container vessels.
✓ Newbuild and retrofit fire alarm installations where Autronica system components are specified by the vessel owner or classification society.
