Every year, boating injuries and deaths can be attributed to explosions that could have been avoided. Even fumes
from a half-cup of gasoline have the explosive force of six sticks of dynamite. With a boat’s gas-powered engine
or gas/LP gas powered appliances, vapors can easily develop in pumps, tanks, lines, or carburetors.
The
SA-1 and SA-1XL system is exclusively designed, tested and listed by the
Underwriters Laboratories for use in the harsh marine environment. The unit serves as an early warning detector
to protect you and your boat from propane and gas fumes. The SA-1 and SA-1XL provide sensors to detect the
build up of explosive gases even in early stages. The sensors alarm when 20% or less of the lower explosive
limit of gasoline or propane vapors is present in a monitored area.
. Some reasons your detector may not have power include an open circuit
breaker, a blown or missing fuse, a broken wire or improper wire crimp connection.
The detector’s loudness is designed to meet or exceed regulatory standards; however, the
detector may not be heard if they are remotely located. Individuals who are hard-of-hearing, have consumed alcoholic
beverages, have taken prescription, non-prescription or illegal drugs may not hear the alarm. If your boat has any
sleeping areas, consider installing additional detectors in those areas.
The sensor cannot monitor a compartment that
is separated by a bulkhead. Gasoline fumes may be present in other areas. MTI recommends that sensors be installed in
compartments containing fuel tanks and or engine(s) and compartments where gasoline or propane fumes may
accumulate.
