Fireboy-Xintex CO Alarm 12/24V DC - Black

The Fireboy-Xintex CO Alarm 12/24V DC in black is a marine-grade carbon monoxide detector engineered for serious boaters and RV enthusiasts who understand that safety on the water demands reliable detection systems. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless threat that accumulates silently in enclosed cabins—particularly around generators, engines, and galley appliances. This dual-voltage alarm stands as your first line of defense, meeting USCG and NFPA standards for accommodation spaces where crew and passengers sleep or spend extended time.

Built for the harsh marine environment, the Fireboy-Xintex CO detector operates on either 12V or 24V DC power, making it compatible with both traditional battery systems and modern vessel electrical architectures. The compact 4 x 2 x 6-inch form factor and lightweight 0.4-pound design allow discreet mounting without cluttering cabin space, while the black finish integrates seamlessly into any galley or cabin décor. The unit continuously monitors air quality and triggers an audible alarm when CO levels exceed safe thresholds, providing immediate warning before dangerous exposure occurs. Its robust circuitry is rated for the salt spray, vibration, and temperature swings inherent to marine service.

Installation protocol depends on vessel size and sleeping quarters: small open-design boats may need only one detector, while larger cruising vessels with separate cabins, engine rooms, or enclosed galley areas benefit from multiple units spaced throughout. Position the alarm in each accommodation space where occupants sleep or gather for extended periods—cabin bulkheads, galley walls, and enclosed salon areas are ideal locations. Anglers running generators for livewell aeration, cruisers with diesel heating, and RV owners should verify 12V or 24V compatibility with their power system before ordering. This is not optional safety equipment; it is the standard investment that experienced mariners make to protect crew and family on every voyage.
