Contura DPST Switch Grey OFF-ON

A DPST switch is a type of switch that allows simultaneous control of two separate circuits or both poles (positive and negative) of a single circuit. In the OFF position, it provides a complete break and secure isolation of both lines, which is particularly useful for applications requiring enhanced safety.

This switch has a simple OFF-ON function (stop-start). It allows clear activation or deactivation of a piece of equipment or an electrical circuit with a direct action.

Yes, absolutely. This switch is part of BLUE SEA’s Contura range, which is specifically designed to withstand demanding marine environments thanks to durable materials and a robust design.

This Contura switch is gray, allowing it to blend discreetly into most boat dashboards.

BLUE SEA Contura DPST switches are generally designed to operate with 12V DC and 24V DC electrical systems, which is standard for most marine applications.

This switch can typically handle up to 20 amperes at 12V DC and 15 amperes at 24V DC, making it suitable for a wide range of onboard equipment.

A DPST switch provides a higher level of safety and versatility. It allows simultaneous disconnection of both poles (positive and negative) of a circuit or two separate circuits, ensuring more complete and safer electrical isolation than an SPST switch, which only disconnects a single pole.

This switch is suitable for controlling a variety of marine equipment such as:

Bilge pumpsNavigation lightsInterior or exterior lightingFansAudio systemsOr any other device requiring secure power switching.

The Contura switch’s front panel is typically rated IP66 when correctly installed with its gasket. This means it is protected against powerful water jets and dust.

The approximate weight of this switch is 0.04 kg.

This switch is manufactured in Mexico.

This switch is designed for snap-in flush mounting on a panel, which simplifies installation and integration without requiring mounting screws.

Standard cut-out dimensions for Contura series switches are approximately 21.08 mm wide by 36.83 mm high (0.83" x 1.45"). A cut-out template is often provided or available for precise installation.

This switch uses 1/4 inch quick-connect blade terminals, allowing easy and secure wiring with compatible terminals.

Yes, a detailed wiring diagram (Pin Out Drawing) is usually available to facilitate installation and correct connection of the switch to your electrical circuits.

Yes, BLUE SEA’s Contura range is designed to be modular. If you’re replacing another Contura switch, the cut-out dimensions and mounting type are typically the same, making the swap simple and quick.

Yes, this switch is versatile and compatible with 12V DC and 24V DC electrical systems, covering most marine installations and offering high flexibility of use.

Absolutely. The Contura series is designed for modular integration. This switch can be easily combined with other Contura switches or circuit breakers to create a consistent and functional dashboard, thanks to their uniform dimensions and mounting systems.
