Horns

Marinco is the leading supplier of horns to the marine industry,

with over fifty years of experience in designing and

manufacturing sound devices specifically for use in harsh

marine environments. Stainless steel is used for all critical

components such as trumpets, motor cover, diaphragms, and

assembly and mounting hardware. In the case of the XLP

trumpet horns, the horn is given extra protection through the

complete over-molding of the internal motor cover housing. It is

this extra process that provides the added protection needed to

back up the five-year warranty.

Marinco offers a complete line of marine horn products designed

to meet almost any need, including electric and air trumpet

horns, compact horns, electric and air below deck horns, and a

comprehensive line of drop-in horns with a wide assortment of

grill options. After developing the first below deck horn for the

marine industry in the late 1980’s, the offering of that product line

has continued to expand. The latest addition is the “H” Horn

Phase II, which is the loudest drop-in horn available today.

greater range as the sound travels across the water.

Horns should be mounted facing forward whenever

possible. The NMMA Certification Program requires this

Notice Concerning Marine Horns, CE, and Electromagnetic Interference

In order to operate, an electric horn rapidly makes and breaks an electric circuit. This operation creates electromagnetic

disturbance, which may cause electrical “noise” in communications equipment. Because a horn is only used temporarily, any

interference in electronic equipment is stopped when the horn is turned off.

The International Marine Certification Institute (IMCI), which certifies boats to the European Community Regulations (CE), has

determined that boats using electric horns can comply with CE requirements on electromagnetic compatibility provided the

above message is given to the boat owners in their manual.
