ART NO. 042300
The Consilium Salwico KPK-2 Communication Board (KPM-2, Art No. 042300) is a core electronic assembly within the Salwico CS3000 marine fire alarm system. Designed to facilitate data exchange between system panels and connected modules, this board enables reliable communication across the fire detection network. As an integral component of a SOLAS-relevant safety system, its correct operation is essential to maintaining onboard fire alarm integrity and ensuring timely detection and response capability.
Key Features
✓ Functions as the dedicated communication board within the Salwico CS3000 fire alarm panel architecture, supporting inter-module data exchange.
✓ Referenced under Art No. 042300, Revision R1B, compatible with the Salwico KPK-2 panel and KPM-2 R2 communication module — exact firmware or hardware revision compatibility subject to confirmation.
✓ Designed for integration within the Consilium Salwico CS3000 fire alarm system; compatibility with other Salwico panel variants should be verified against system configuration.
✓ Intended for installation within the fire alarm control panel enclosure in a protected, dry environment; installation context and mounting requirements depend on the specific vessel configuration.
✓ Serves as a direct replacement component for service and maintenance of the CS3000 system, helping restore full communication functionality where board-level failure has been identified.
Marine Applications
✓ Merchant vessels and cargo ships equipped with the Consilium Salwico CS3000 fire detection and alarm system requiring communication board replacement or repair.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels where continuous fire alarm system operability is a flag state and SOLAS compliance requirement.
✓ Offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels operating Salwico fire alarm panels as part of integrated safety systems.
✓ Tankers and bulk carriers where fire alarm system uptime is critical to safe cargo operations and port state control compliance.
✓ Drydock and scheduled maintenance scenarios where fire alarm panel boards are inspected, tested, and replaced as part of planned service routines.
