Circuit breaker series 187 - Panel mount 30 A

This is a circuit breaker designed by Blue Sea Systems for protecting marine electrical circuits. It is part of the 187 series, has a rated current of 30 A, and is specifically designed for panel mounting. It provides protection against overcurrent and short circuits.

This specific Blue Sea 187-series circuit breaker model has a rated current of 30 amperes (30 A).

This circuit breaker is specifically designed for marine environments, to ensure reliable protection of electrical circuits aboard ships and vessels.

It provides essential protection against overcurrents and short circuits. This protection is crucial for the safety of electrical equipment and the boat's overall system.

Yes, this circuit breaker allows manual reset after tripping caused by overcurrent or short circuit. This distinguishes it from fuses, which require replacement.

The main difference is that this circuit breaker can be manually reset after tripping, whereas a fuse must be replaced once it has blown. Manual resetting simplifies fault management on board and avoids the need to carry spare fuses.

Although its primary function is circuit protection, a circuit breaker can be used to manually cut the power to a circuit, acting as a switch. However, it is primarily a safety device designed to respond to overload or short-circuit conditions.

This circuit breaker is suitable for protecting medium-power circuits. It can be used for equipment such as pumps, lighting, or certain electronic navigation devices aboard the vessel.

The Blue Sea 187 series circuit breaker is designed to protect against overcurrents and short circuits. It does not specifically protect against surges, which typically require other types of protective devices such as surge protectors.

Yes, this circuit breaker is a Blue Sea Systems product, known for its high-quality electrical and electronic marine-grade equipment.

By protecting circuits against overcurrent and short circuits, this circuit breaker helps prevent equipment damage, fire hazards, and electrical failures, thereby significantly contributing to the overall safety of the marine electrical system.

Yes, Blue Sea Systems’ 187 Series is specifically designed to withstand the demanding conditions of the marine environment, providing durability and reliability.

It is suitable for both integration into existing electrical panels and for new installations. Its design facilitates use in various marine electrical system design or upgrade projects.

The "Series 187" refers to a specific range of circuit breakers manufactured by Blue Sea Systems. This series is defined by certain technical specifications and a design tailored for marine applications, including manual reset capability and reliable protection against overcurrent and short circuits.

This circuit breaker is designed for panel mounting. This means it is installed through a cutout in a panel or electrical board, with the front face and reset button accessible.

Yes, the design of this circuit breaker with panel mounting provides direct front access to the reset button. This is very practical for quick fault management or to reactivate a circuit after a trip.

Yes, its panel-mounting format is designed to facilitate integration into existing electrical panels or new installations, provided the appropriate space and cutouts are available.

When installing on a panel, sufficient space must be left behind the panel for electrical connections (wiring) and to accommodate the circuit breaker body. This ensures a correct and secure installation.

Yes, this circuit breaker is designed to integrate seamlessly into Blue Sea Systems electrical distribution systems. It provides a reliable option for designing consistent and modular electrical architectures aboard.

Yes, as it is designed for marine environments and the protection of medium-power circuits (30 A), it can be used on a wide range of vessels and boats requiring reliable electrical protection for equipment such as pumps, lighting, or navigation electronics.
