Detailed description

El Blue Sea Dual PowerPost 2018-BSS està dissenyat per a la distribució elèctrica marina, oferint una solució de connexió robusta per a aplicacions diverses. Aquest PowerPost integra un cargol de 5/16"-18 i un altre de 3/8"-16, permetent la connexió de cables de diferents seccions o la consolidació de circuits diferents en un punt central. Aquest tipus de born de distribució és una alternativa a les barres omnibus clàssiques, oferint una flexibilitat major per a les instal·lacions que requereixen mides de connexió heterogènies.

Conformitat i Seguretat en Entorn Marí

Aquest model, com els altres de la gamma PowerPost de Blue Sea (incloent-hi els models 2003, 2002, 2011, 2010, 2001, 2016, 2017, 2018), està certificat conforme a la directiva europea 94/25/CE, modificada per 2003/44/CE, d'acord amb la norma ISO 8846. Aquesta certificació garanteix una protecció contra la ignició de gasos inflamables en l'entorn, un criteri essencial per a la seguretat de les instal·lacions elèctriques en els compartiments motor dels vaixells. El disseny del Dual PowerPost té com a objectiu oferir una integritat elèctrica en els entorns marins exigents. Es posiciona com un element fiable per als sistemes de corrent continu a bord, en comparació amb blocs de connexió estàndards que no sempre compten amb aquesta certificació.

Aplicacions i Posicionament

El Dual PowerPost 2018-BSS s'adreça als navegants i professionals que busquen organitzar i assegurar les seves xarxes elèctriques. Facilita el connectar diversos aparells o bateries a un punt d'alimentació o de massa únic, alhora que manté una separació física entre les connexions. La seva configuració amb dos cargols de mides diferents el distingeix dels PowerPosts amb un únic cargol (com alguns models 2001 o 2003 de Blue Sea), oferint una polivalència per als sistemes elèctrics complexos on s'utilitzen diversos calibres de cables. És especialment adequat per a instal·lacions on l'espai és limitat i on la consolidació dels punts de connexió resulta beneficiosa per a la claredat i el manteniment del cablejat.

« Versatility and safety for marine power distribution »

Blue Sea's PowerPost Dual is a critical component for any marine electrical installation requiring reliable and secure current distribution. The presence of two studs of different sizes (5/16"-18 and 3/8"-16) is a major advantage. It allows simultaneous management of high-gauge cables, typical of battery inputs or inverter power feeds, and medium-gauge cables for secondary loads, all at a single connection point with optimal anchoring flexibility. This feature eliminates the need for reducers or adapters, simplifying wiring and reducing potential failure points.

The most critical aspect of this PowerPost is its compliance with ISO 8846 for ignition protection. In an engine compartment where fuel vapors may be present, any electrical component must minimize the risk of sparks. This certification provides a safety assurance often lacking in generic terminal blocks or non-marine-specific busbars. For installation, it is recommended to mount it on a rigid, insulating surface, ensuring protective caps (not included but essential for a clean installation) are properly installed to prevent accidental short circuits. This type of PowerPost is ideal for centralizing power connections in a battery bank, windlass, or bow thruster, offering a more resilient and better-insulated solution than traditional terminal blocks.
