LED - 12/24 V DC Red

This LED is red. It is designed to provide clear and direct visual signaling.

This LED is designed to operate on 12 V DC or 24 V DC electrical systems. It thus offers versatility for various marine applications.

This LED primarily serves as a visual indicator to signal the status of a circuit or piece of equipment. It is integrated into electrical panels and control displays to provide a simple, immediate binary status to operators aboard vessels.

Yes, as a component from the BLUE SEA brand, this LED is specifically designed for marine environments. It is engineered to provide reliable lighting in these conditions.

This LED is designed to operate exclusively on direct current (DC). It is not compatible with alternating current (AC) systems.

The part number for this product is 8171-BSS. This is the reference you can use to identify this LED.

This LED is a simple binary indicator. Unlike multifunction digital interfaces, it provides basic visual feedback on a circuit's status without requiring complex configuration.

LEDs generally have a very long lifespan, often tens of thousands of hours of operation. This characteristic helps reduce replacement frequency and maintenance.

This LED is designed to be integrated into electrical panels and control panels, which typically requires a recessed installation for a clean and secure finish.

Yes, absolutely. This LED is designed to be compatible with both 12 V DC and 24 V DC voltages, making it highly flexible for various marine electrical system configurations.

No, this LED is specifically designed to operate with direct current (DC) systems only. It must not be connected to an alternating current (AC) circuit as this could damage it.

Yes, this LED is designed to complement the BLUE SEA range of electrical components and will integrate seamlessly into the brand's electrical panels and control panels, as well as other standard installations.

Yes, provided the voltage specifications (12 V DC or 24 V DC) are met, this LED can be used with equipment and electrical systems from other brands. It is a standard component that provides a visual indication.

Yes, this LED can often replace a halogen or incandescent indicator light, provided the circuit voltage matches (12 V DC or 24 V DC) and the mounting type is compatible. LEDs offer the advantage of lower power consumption and longer lifespan.

To wire this LED, connect it to a 12 V DC or 24 V DC electrical circuit. LEDs typically have two wires (or terminals): one for the positive (+) and one for the negative (-). It is critical to respect polarity for proper operation.

Yes, polarity must be observed when connecting this LED. LEDs are light-emitting diodes and will only illuminate if current flows in the correct direction (from positive to negative).

No, for BLUE SEA LED lights designed to operate on 12 V DC or 24 V DC, the required resistor is usually built-in. You do not need to add an external resistor when connecting them directly to a 12 V or 24 V DC power source.

This LED is designed for panel or electrical switchboard mounting. It requires a hole of a specific diameter to be recessed and secured, providing a clean and secure integration.

For installing this LED, you will typically need basic electrical tools such as a drill (with the appropriate bit for the mounting diameter), wire strippers, cutting pliers, and a screwdriver for the connections.
