160°C ART NR: 1105
The Consilium Salwico SW1K/150 is a fixed-temperature heat detector designed for use within marine fire alarm systems. Rated at 160°C, it activates when ambient temperature reaches its set threshold, providing reliable thermal detection in areas where smoke detectors may be unsuitable — such as engine rooms, galleys, and machinery spaces. As a core component of the Salwico fire detection network, it plays a critical role in early warning and the protection of crew, vessel, and cargo.
Key Features
✓ Fixed-temperature heat detector with a rated activation threshold of 160°C, as specified in the original product data.
✓ Manufactured by Consilium Marine under the Salwico brand — a well-established name in marine fire detection systems worldwide.
✓ Designed for compatibility with Salwico fire alarm panels and detection loops; exact panel compatibility subject to confirmation based on system configuration.
✓ Suitable for installation in high-heat or smoke-prone onboard environments where thermal detection is the preferred method; typical locations include engine rooms and auxiliary machinery spaces.
✓ Intended as a direct service or replacement component within existing Salwico fire alarm installations; always verify system loop requirements and detector base compatibility prior to fitting.
Marine Applications
✓ Engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers where elevated ambient temperatures make heat detection appropriate.
✓ Galley and cooking areas on passenger ferries, cruise ships, and offshore support vessels requiring thermal rather than optical detection.
✓ Auxiliary spaces and pump rooms on chemical tankers and product carriers fitted with Salwico fire detection systems.
✓ Offshore platforms and FPSOs where Consilium Salwico fire alarm infrastructure is installed across multiple fire zones.
✓ Naval auxiliary vessels, ro-ro ferries, and workboats requiring SOLAS-compliant fire detection in challenging thermal environments.
