The Consilium Salwico RDJ-2 is an ionization smoke detector designed for integration with the CS3000 marine fire alarm and detection system. Utilizing an americium-241 ionization chamber (25.9 kBq), the RDJ-2 is engineered to provide early-stage smoke detection by sensing the presence of combustion particles in the air. As a core field device within the CS3000 fire detection network, it plays a critical role in protecting crew, cargo, and vessel structures by triggering alarms at the earliest signs of a fire event. Reliable smoke detection is a fundamental requirement under SOLAS regulations, making detectors of this type essential components in shipboard fire safety systems.
Key Features
✓ Ionization detection principle using an AM-241 source (25.9 kBq), providing sensitivity to the invisible combustion particles characteristic of fast-flaming fires.
✓ Manufactured to Art No. 44560, Revision R2B — a specific variant within the Consilium Salwico RDJ-2 detector series, ensuring correct compatibility when specifying replacements.
✓ Designed for use with the Consilium Salwico CS3000 fire alarm and detection system; compatibility with other panels or loop controllers should be confirmed against system configuration.
✓ Suitable for installation in enclosed onboard spaces typical of marine fire detection layouts; exact environmental ratings and mounting requirements are subject to confirmation from technical documentation.
✓ Replacement of ionization detectors is a routine element of fire system maintenance and SOLAS compliance surveys; sourcing an exact-match unit ensures system integrity and avoids reconfiguration.
Marine Applications
✓ Cargo vessels and bulk carriers requiring SOLAS-compliant fire detection across machinery spaces, accommodation, and cargo handling areas.
✓ Offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels where continuous fire monitoring is mandated in crew quarters and control rooms.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels with CS3000 fire alarm systems installed throughout public spaces and below-deck compartments.
✓ Tankers and chemical carriers where early smoke detection in accommodation and service areas supports broader fire and gas safety strategies.
✓ Naval auxiliaries, research vessels, and specialist marine craft operating Consilium Salwico fire detection infrastructure requiring like-for-like detector replacement.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
The Consilium Salwico RDJ-2 is a trusted detector within the CS3000 ecosystem, valued for its ionization sensing technology, exact-match replacement capability, and consistent performance within established shipboard fire alarm networks — minimising downtime during maintenance and inspection cycles.
Ideal For
