Utikač za upravljačku ploču 12 V DC s vodonepropusnim poklopcem

The Blue Sea Dash Socket 1011-BSS is designed to operate with a nominal voltage of 12V DC. It can support a maximum voltage of 15 volts.

This Dash Socket has a maximum current capacity of 15 Amperes (15A). It is important not to exceed this current to ensure safety and the longevity of the installation.

The socket body is made from marine-grade materials known for their resilience and durability in demanding environments. The contacts are made from nickel-plated copper alloy for optimal conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Yes, the socket is fitted with an integrated watertight cap that effectively protects the socket from dust and moisture when not in use. Its overall design is intended for marine environments and recreational vehicles.

The waterproof cap is designed to protect the inside of the connector from external elements such as water, moisture, dust, and debris, especially when the connector is not in use. This is an essential feature for maintaining connection reliability in outdoor or marine environments.

The twist-lock system is a mechanism that ensures a firm hold of the plug in the socket. Simply insert the plug and turn it slightly to lock it in place, preventing accidental disconnections due to vibrations or movements, which is crucial in marine environments or vehicles.

Yes, the Blue Sea Systems Dash Socket 12V DC is specifically designed for marine environments and recreational vehicles. Its design emphasizes robustness, resistance to moisture and vibrations, and secure electrical connections, meeting the standards expected from Blue Sea Systems equipment.

This socket is suitable for powering a wide range of onboard accessories operating on 12V DC and not exceeding 15 Amperes. This includes, for example, USB chargers, portable lamps, fans, small compressors, portable GPS units, and other compatible electronic devices.

The main difference lies in its robust design and high-quality marine-grade materials, specifically engineered to withstand the stresses of damp, vibrating, and corrosive environments—unlike standard automotive sockets. It also features a watertight cap and a twist-lock mechanism for enhanced security and durability in outdoor conditions.

Yes, the contacts of the connector are made of nickel-plated copper alloy. This material choice ensures excellent conductivity and increased corrosion resistance, a key advantage for use in humid environments such as the marine environment.

No, the Dash Socket 1011-BSS power outlet is a basic power outlet and does not include built-in overload protection. It is mandatory to install an external fuse (15A maximum) on the power circuit to protect the outlet and connected devices from overcurrent.

For correct installation of the Dash Socket outlet, the required cutout diameter is 28.58 mm (1 1/8 inches). It is recommended to use a hole saw of this size for precise fitting.

Installing the Dash Socket 12V DC is made easy with versatile mounting options. It can be integrated:

In the front of a panelAt the rear of a panelOn the surface, with a suitable mounting box (sold separately if required)

Yes, it is absolutely necessary to add a 15A fuse on the power circuit of this socket. A 15A fuse is recommended to protect the wiring and the socket from overcurrent and short circuits, ensuring the safety of your electrical installation.

Basic electrical and mounting tools are required for installation:

A 28.58 mm (1 1/8 inch) hole saw for cutting the panel.A screwdriver (flathead or Phillips, depending on the terminal type).Wire strippers and side cutters.A multimeter to check polarity and voltage.

Yes, the Blue Sea Systems Dash Socket 12V DC is designed to be compatible with standard cigarette lighter plugs (type A) found on most 12V DC accessories.

No, this socket is specifically designed for use with 12V DC electrical systems only. Using devices or a 24V DC power source could damage the socket and/or the connected device, and would void any warranty.

Yes, in addition to marine applications, this socket is perfectly suited for use in recreational vehicles such as motorhomes, caravans, as well as trucks and other utility vehicles, provided the electrical system is 12V DC.

The Blue Sea Dash Socket 1011-BSS is covered by Blue Sea Systems' standard manufacturer warranty. For detailed information regarding the duration and specific conditions of this warranty, please refer to Blue Sea Systems' official documentation or contact our customer service.

Installation of the Blue Sea Systems Dash Socket 12V DC is designed to be versatile and adapt to various marine or recreational vehicle environments.

You have several mounting options:

On the front panel: For direct integration on a panel surface.Behind a panel: For a flush mount where most of the socket is hidden behind the panel.On a surface: For direct attachment to a flat surface.

For integration, the required cutout diameter is 28.58 mm (1 1/8 inches). The design also includes an internal cable gland and a cord seal to protect wiring from mechanical stress, ensuring a durable and secure installation.
