ACR Exposure OLAS N2K OLAS Receiver and Wireless Engine Kill Switch

The ACR Exposure OLAS N2K Receiver and Wireless Engine Kill Switch is a dual-function safety device purpose-built for recreational and commercial boaters who demand reliability in critical situations. Whether you're running offshore waters or navigating coastal inlets, this system integrates with your vessel's NMEA 2000 network to provide both man-overboard alarm functionality and wireless engine shutdown in a single compact unit. For any serious boater, crew safety and rapid emergency response are non-negotiable—this device delivers both without cluttering your console with multiple independent systems.

The OLAS N2K receiver operates as a wireless hub that monitors OLAS-compatible wireless kill switches worn by crew members, instantly detecting when a switch separates from the wearer and triggering an audible MOB alarm to alert nearby crew. Simultaneously, the integrated wireless engine kill switch capability cuts engine power automatically when activated, preventing the vessel from circling back over an overboard crew member—a scenario that has claimed countless lives. The N2K integration means the system communicates seamlessly with your existing marine electronics, displaying alerts on integrated chartplotters and multifunction displays rather than requiring a separate control panel. Weighing just 1.07 lbs, this compact receiver mounts easily in engine spaces or helm areas with minimal installation footprint.

The ACR Exposure OLAS N2K is ideal for captains operating center consoles, offshore fishing boats, cruising vessels, and commercial charters where crew rotation and fatigue create higher overboard risk. Installation requires connection to an active NMEA 2000 backbone and 12V power; vessels already equipped with digital networks gain this life-saving functionality with minimal added complexity. Compatibility with the broader OLAS ecosystem means crews can wear wireless kill switch devices that communicate with this receiver, ensuring every person on deck is protected regardless of weather, darkness, or crew distraction. For boaters serious about marine safety standards, this receiver represents a critical step toward redundancy and rapid emergency response.
