You can find here good
quality Marine Alarm Systems, a tidal wave of security
equipment has flooded the market. Unfortunately, most
marine alarms are nothing more then modified home and
car alarms. The following article provides a brief
description of marine alarms, security sensors and
installation tips to help boat owners select quality
marine security systems.
The state of the art marine security control module
manages the marine safety alarm's operation and security
sensors. The control module also provides a seamless
convenience by automatically activating boarding lights
and turning off cabin motion sensors for overnight
stays.
Control modules of Marine Alarm System should be mounted
near the boat's main electrical area. Never mount
control modules next to gas tanks, engines or in the
bilge where they may be subjected to saltwater, high
humidity, oil and corrosive fumes. For high impact
boats, control modules can be free mounted to dampen
harmful vibrations. Do not mount control modules next to
VHF radios, cellular phones, pagers or long range radios
that may interfere in system operation. Due to limited
installation areas in most boats, select a control
module that requires a small mounting footprint.
Control modules of these cause of marine engine temp
alarm should be wired directly to a boat's 12V battery.
This eliminates disruption by battery switches,
maximizes reliability and reduces electrical noise to
the control module and system sensors. When powering
loads over five amperes such as multiple lights and
sirens the power feed should be at least #14Awg wire to
reduce voltage drops. If loads are higher then five
amperes, consider running a separate power feed to power
loads such as lights and sirens over 30 watts.
Preparing the power harness that distributes connections
for control modules and accessories is key to installing
a clean reliable alarm. If the boat has limited battery
power, total alarm power consumption should not exceed
ten milli-amps @ 12Vdc. All control module connectors
should be plated with gold or nickel. Beware of tin
plated molex connectors that corrode rapidly in a
saltwater environment. Solder all connections. After the
system has been fully tested, coat exposed wire
connections with silicone grease or other sealant to
prevent corrosion.
You can be aware of cause of marine engine temp alarm,
by having a good quality marine alarm systems. |
