Analoogne alalisvoolu ampermeeter 0–25 A shuntiga

This Blue Sea 8005 analog DC ammeter is designed to measure direct current within a range of 0 to 25 amperes.

The analog display accuracy of this ammeter is 3% of the full measurement range.

This ammeter requires an input voltage of 8 to 16 V DC to operate correctly.

The ammeter's power consumption is 1 milliampere at full scale.

The Blue Sea 8005 model includes an internal shunt for direct current measurement, which simplifies installation.

No, this ammeter is not protected against ignition. It must be installed in a location free from flammable vapors, such as those from propane, gasoline, or lead-acid batteries.

This ammeter can be mounted in two main ways:

Surface-mount: Requires drilling five clearance holes and using the supplied nuts and washers to secure the four mounting studs. This method is suitable for mounting surfaces up to 5/8 inch thick.
Flush-mount: For thicker mounting surfaces, the ammeter can be mounted in a 0.125 inch thick panel.

Yes, Blue Sea Systems offers dedicated mounting panels for its standard-size meters. For the 8005 model, you can use:

Reference 8013 to mount a single ammeter. Reference 8014 to mount two ammeters.

Yes, it is imperative to disconnect all AC and DC power supplies before beginning installation. Unplug the main positive cable from all batteries and the AC power cord from the dock to eliminate any risk of short-circuit or electrocution.

Select a mounting location protected from water at the front and rear of the meter. It is crucial not to install it in an area where flammable vapors (from propane, gasoline, or lead-acid batteries) could accumulate, as the device is not ignition-protected and could ignite them.

Since the ammeter uses an internal shunt, the total current to be measured must pass through it. Therefore, it is necessary to use wiring of sufficient gauge to carry this current. The wire size will depend on the total circuit length (sum of positive and negative wire lengths). A fuse or circuit breaker must be installed on the positive wire leading to the meter. Wire and fuse selection should be based on the tables provided by the manufacturer in the technical documentation.

Ammeters with internal shunts, such as model 8005, must be installed in series configuration in the circuit whose current is to be measured.

When installing the ammeter in the circuit:

Connect the wire end closest to the positive side of the circuit to the ammeter terminal marked + (positive). Connect the wire end closest to the negative side of the circuit to the ammeter terminal marked - (negative).

Blue Sea 8005 ammeters are factory-calibrated and recalibration should normally never be required. However, if an adjustment becomes necessary to reset the needle to the zero mark, a screwdriver can be used on the adjustment screw located at the center of the black area on the meter face. Turn the screw by no more than 90 degrees to the right or left. Do not rotate the adjustment screw 360 degrees.

This ammeter complies with the following European Union harmonisation legislation:

EMC Directive (2014/30/EU)RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU and amendment (EU) 2015/863)It also meets the harmonised standards EN/IEC 61000-6-3:2020 (emission standard for residential environments) and EN/IEC 61000-6-2:2016 (immunity standard for industrial environments).

No, this ammeter is an analog DC (direct current) model and is specifically designed to measure direct current only.

The main function of this ammeter is to accurately monitor the direct current flowing through a circuit. The internal shunt allows the device to measure the total current by being inserted in series in the circuit.

This ammeter is primarily designed for marine and electrical applications on board, allowing monitoring of direct current in dashboards or electrical panels of boats.
