    (a) Space normally accessible to persons on board while the vessel 
is being navigated which are protected by a carbon dioxide extinguishing 
system and are required to be fitted with a delayed discharge system 
other than paint and lamp lockers and similar small spaces, shall be 
fitted with an approved audible alarm which will be automatically 
sounded when the carbon dioxide is admitted to the space. The alarm 
shall be conspicuously and centrally located and shall be marked as 
required by Sec. 196.37-9 of this subchapter. Such alarms shall be so 
arranged as to sound during the 20-second delay period prior to the 
discharge of carbon dioxide into the space, and the alarm shall depend 
on no source of power other than the carbon dioxide.
