Fireboy-Xintex P-1B-R Propane Gas Detector, 1 Zone, for Boats

The Fireboy-Xintex P-1B-R is a single-zone propane gas detector built to monitor for the presence of propane in an enclosed boat space, such as an engine compartment, galley, or bilge area near LPG appliances or fuel storage. Propane is heavier than air and can collect in low points of a vessel, creating a fire and explosion hazard if it goes undetected; a dedicated gas detector like the P-1B-R provides continuous monitoring so that a leak can be identified before it becomes dangerous. As a 1-zone unit, the P-1B-R monitors a single sensing location, making it suited to smaller boats or applications where only one compartment needs propane gas monitoring, as opposed to multi-zone systems that cover several spaces from one control head.
