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

The Fireboy-Xintex CO Alarm 12/24V DC with Interconnect in black is a carbon monoxide detection system engineered for marine vessels and RV applications where engine exhaust and fuel combustion create CO hazards in enclosed spaces. This dual-voltage detector operates on either 12V or 24V DC power, making it compatible with most recreational and commercial marine electrical systems. The interconnect capability allows multiple units to communicate across sleeping quarters and accommodation spaces, creating a coordinated warning network that alerts occupants in all connected zones when dangerous CO levels are detected.

The CMD6-MDR-BR model employs a microprocessor-based sensor that continuously monitors ambient carbon monoxide concentration, distinguishing between normal operational fluctuations and hazardous exposure. The interconnect feature is critical for multi-cabin vessels and RVs where sleeping areas are partitioned—rather than requiring occupants to carry a portable detector, interconnected alarms ensure that CO detection in one zone triggers audible warning throughout the entire vessel. The compact 4 × 2 × 6 inch footprint and lightweight design (0.4 lbs) allow discreet mounting in galley, engine compartment, or cabin locations without consuming valuable space.

This detector addresses a critical gap in marine and RV safety. Weekend fishermen operating closed-cabin boats, cruising sailors with below-deck sleeping quarters, and RV owners using onboard generators all face real CO risk during engine operation or in poor ventilation conditions. Firefighting and rescue professionals recommend at least one CO detector per accommodation space; the Fireboy-Xintex interconnect option eliminates blind spots where a single detector might miss exposure in a secondary cabin or bunk area. The 12/24V compatibility means no need for separate AC inverters, simplifying installation on battery-powered vessels and RVs.
