The Thorn Security Minerva T2000 (557.200.600) is a sophisticated addressable fire alarm control panel specifically designed for the demanding requirements of the marine and offshore industries. As a core component of the Minerva Marine range, this panel manages a network of high-performance detectors, manual call points, and notification appliances across multiple vessel zones. The T2000 architecture supports complex cause-and-effect programming for fire door closure, ventilation shutdown, and alarm routing, ensuring rapid response and compliance with SOLAS and major maritime classification society standards.

Product Q&A

Q1: What is the maximum device capacity for the T2000 panel? A1: The Minerva T2000 typically supports up to 127 addressable devices per loop. Depending on the internal card configuration, it can manage one or two loops, providing coverage for up to 254 total addresses.

Q2: Can the T2000 panel be integrated with a ship’s VDR (Voyage Data Recorder)? A2: Yes, the T2000 features serial communication ports (RS232/RS485) that allow fire alarm event logs and status data to be exported to the vessel’s VDR and Integrated Bridge System (IBS).

Q3: How does the panel handle “Pre-Alarm” conditions? A3: The T2000 utilizes advanced algorithms to analyze smoke and heat levels. A pre-alarm allows crew members to investigate a potential fire source before a full-scale general alarm is triggered, reducing the risk of unnecessary vessel-wide evacuations.
