Which alarm is NOT found on an inert gas system?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Low oxygen alarm.
Inert gas systems on ships are designed to displace oxygen and create an inert atmosphere to prevent explosions. These systems do not monitor low oxygen levels, as the goal is to maintain a low oxygen environment. Instead, they have alarms for other critical parameters such as a deck seal low water alarm, a scrubber high water level alarm, and a low pressure alarm. A low oxygen alarm would not be found on an inert gas system, as it would be counterproductive to the system's purpose.
