BLUE SEA Contura vízálló 12 V DC megszakítós panel – 6 pozíció, fehér

This circuit breaker panel is designed for power distribution, circuit protection (wires), ON/OFF switching of circuits, indication of circuit status (when live), and, in panels equipped with meters, voltage and amperage measurement. It is ideal for exposed marine environments where watertightness is critical.

The overall dimensions of the panel are 114.30 x 190.50 mm (4-1/2 x 7-1/2 inches) with a depth of 69.90 mm (2-3/4 inches).

The panel is constructed from 5052-H32 aluminum alloy, 0.100" thick (approximately 2.54 mm). It features a two-part textured polyurethane finish, UV-stabilized and corrosion-resistant, available in white.

Yes, this panel is designed to withstand water exposure typically encountered in deck applications, such as salt spray, rain, hose washing, and brief immersions. Its front face is rated IP66, ensuring protection against powerful water jets.

The maximum cumulative current capacity for the entire panel is 45 amperes.

This panel is a 6-position model, integrating six individual circuit breakers.

The panel is supplied with six 15-amp push-button circuit breakers, protected by waterproof caps. This value was chosen to cover the vast majority of marine circuit protection situations.

Yes, the Contura ON-OFF rocker switches integrate indicator LEDs that show the circuit state (activated).

This circuit breaker panel is white.

The LEDs integrated into the switches have a rated lifespan of 100,000 hours at half-life.

Yes, the panel is designed for 12 V or 24 V DC systems. The individual switches are rated for 20 A at 12 V DC or 15 A at 24 V DC. However, the panel is supplied with 15 A circuit breakers, which are suitable for 24 V DC systems (maximum 15 A per switch) and for 12 V DC systems (where they protect up to 15 A).

Yes, you can replace the 15 amp circuit breakers supplied with circuit breakers of a different amperage if necessary, provided you do not exceed 20 amps for 12V DC systems or 15 amps for 24V DC systems per switch. It is important to select the correct amperage for the protection of each circuit.

No, this panel must not be installed in explosive environments such as gasoline engine rooms or battery compartments, as the switches are not protected against ignition of flammable vapors.

Each switch is rated for a maximum of 20 amperes at 12V DC or 15 amperes at 24V DC.

Yes, a sealing gasket is included to ensure perfect sealing and watertightness of the panel against the mounting surface. It must be correctly installed and the panel firmly screwed in place.

Yes, the panel is supplied pre-wired with quick-connect connectors to simplify the installation process.

Before starting the installation, it is imperative to disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries to eliminate any risk of short-circuit. Additionally, unplug the AC power cord from the boat's dock to prevent any risk of electrocution due to AC wiring near the DC distribution panel.

You must calculate the total amperage of the circuits that will be routed through the panel. The panel's total capacity is 45 amperes. The positive supply wire must be sized for a 3% voltage drop at the panel's nominal capacity of 45 amperes, or at the maximum amperage that will be routed in your installation, whichever is lower. It is recommended to size the wire for the panel's full capacity, which will typically require a wire of at least 8 AWG for a length of 3 meters (10 feet) in 12V systems. Refer to the wire sizing chart provided in the documentation for other scenarios.

It is recommended to connect each negative branch circuit wire (yellow) to a DC negative bus, such as the Blue Sea Systems PN 2301 BusBar or PN 2304 MiniBus.

Any Blue Sea Systems product that a customer is not satisfied with can be returned at any time for a refund or replacement.
