MAXI fuse block

The MAXI Blue Sea 5006100-BSS fuse block is designed for protecting high-intensity electrical circuits in marine environments. It ensures reliable and secure power distribution, particularly suited for areas requiring ignition protection, such as gasoline engine compartments.

This fuse block is made from molded plastics with a UL 94 V0 flame rating, ensuring high fire resistance. The internal busbar is made of tinned brass, providing excellent electrical conductivity and effective corrosion protection in marine environments.

The MAXI Blue Sea 5006100-BSS fuse block is rated for continuous currents up to 80 amperes (80A).

Yes, this fuse block is specifically designed to be ignition-protected. It complies with ISO 8846 and SAE J1171 standards, making it safe for use in areas where flammable gases may be present, such as gasoline engine compartments.

The main physical dimensions of the fuse block are as follows:

Total length: 71.1 mm (2.80 in)Width: 47.6 mm (1.88 in)Mounting screw spacing: 52.4 mm (2.06 in)Bus height: 24.2 mm (0.95 in)

The MAXI Blue Sea fuse block weighs approximately 114 grams (0.25 lb), making it a lightweight and compact solution for marine electrical installations.

Yes, the internal bus is made of tinned brass. The tinning provides excellent protection against corrosion, a key feature for durability and reliability in humid marine environments.

The molded plastics used for the fuse block housing have a UL 94 V0 flame rating. This rating indicates high fire resistance, contributing to the safety of the installation.

This block is specifically designed to house and protect circuits with MAXI-type fuses.

Yes, the MAXI Blue Sea 5006100-BSS fuse block is CE certified, confirming its compliance with European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.

To open the insulating cover, simply pinch the pressure-release levers on the sides slightly, then lift the cover.

The fuse block is designed to accept wires up to 4 AWG, providing a robust connection for high-current circuits.

The block has standard cutouts to allow wires to enter from the sides and bottom, providing flexibility for cable routing. Additionally, a break line on the cover allows removal of an entire section if larger wires or terminals require increased access to the terminals.

For secure mounting of the fuse block, screws of size #10 or M5 are required.

Yes, the insulating cover is equipped with a break line. This feature allows you to remove an entire section of the cover if larger wires or terminals require increased access to the terminals, making installation easier.

Yes, for the fuse block to maintain its ignition protection performance, it is imperative that the cover is secured and that the mounting screws are properly fastened.

To install or remove a fuse, start by opening the cover by pinching the unlocking levers. Then loosen the terminal screws to insert or remove the fuse, then tighten them firmly.

Absolutely. The MAXI Blue Sea fuse block is specifically designed for marine environments. Its corrosion-resistant materials (tinned brass) and ignition protection (compliant with ISO 8846 and SAE J1171) make it ideal for nautical applications.

This fuse block complies with several international safety standards, ensuring its reliability and safety:

ISO 8846 and SAE J1171 for ignition protection.EN 28846:1993 (equivalent to ISO 8846:1990) for electrical devices on small boats.Directive 2013/53/EU (Module B Annex II) concerning recreational craft.It is also RoHS compliant and CE certified.
