The FDD-1212 is a 12V DC fire detector system, typically rated for 12 amps (denoted by the suffix). Unlike standard residential alarms that run on 9V batteries, the FDD-1212 is hardwired into your DC power grid, offering continuous monitoring without battery changes.
Salt air destroys electronics. The FDD-1212 features a conformal-coated PCB (Printed Circuit Board) to resist corrosion. Connect it to your 12V house battery and a loud marine horn via the 12A relay. fdd-1212
