The Tyco CIM800 is a Contact Input Module designed for integration within marine fire alarm systems. Its primary function is to monitor and relay dry contact signals — such as those from switches, detectors, or auxiliary devices — into the fire detection panel, enabling the system to register external input states and trigger appropriate alarm responses. As a PCB-level component, it plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity and responsiveness of onboard fire detection networks, making it operationally significant for vessel safety and SOLAS compliance.
Key Features
✓ Functions as a contact input interface, converting dry contact signals into actionable data for the connected fire alarm control panel.
✓ Identified as PCB assembly 125-585-650 Rev 7, Issue 14 — specific revision details should be confirmed against the installed system configuration.
✓ Designed for compatibility with Tyco fire alarm panel architectures; system-level compatibility is subject to confirmation based on the specific panel and loop configuration onboard.
✓ Suitable for installation within fire alarm system enclosures or designated control cabinets; environmental suitability and mounting requirements depend on the vessel’s system layout.
✓ As a module-level component, the CIM800 supports targeted replacement or repair within the fire detection system without requiring full panel overhaul.
Marine Applications
✓ Integrated into addressable or conventional fire alarm systems aboard commercial cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers.
✓ Used in passenger ship fire detection networks where regulatory compliance and rapid signal processing are operationally critical.
✓ Applied in offshore platforms and support vessels requiring reliable contact monitoring across distributed detection zones.
✓ Deployed in engine room and accommodation fire alarm loops where auxiliary contact inputs from manual call points or other devices must be registered centrally.
✓ Suitable for use in any marine environment where a Tyco fire alarm system requires contact input monitoring at the module level.
