12 V DC műszerfal-csatlakozó védőfedéllel

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

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

The plug 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 equipped 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 socket from external elements such as water, moisture, dust, and debris, especially when the socket 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 plugged connector in the socket. Simply insert the connector and turn it slightly to lock it in place, preventing accidental disconnections caused by vibrations or movements, which is crucial in marine environments or vehicles.

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

This socket is suitable for powering a wide range of 12V DC onboard accessories drawing no more than 15 Amperes. This includes, for example, USB chargers, portable lamps, fans, small compressors, handheld GPS units, and other compatible electronic devices.

The main difference lies in its robust design and marine-grade materials, specifically adapted to withstand the stresses of damp, vibrating, and corrosive environments, unlike standard automotive plugs. It also features a waterproof cap and a twist-lock system for improved 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 resistance to corrosion, an essential advantage for use in humid environments such as marine conditions.

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

For a correct installation of the Dash Socket socket, the required cut-out diameter is 28.58 mm (1 1/8 inches). It is recommended to use a hole saw of this size for a precise fit.

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

On the front panelBehind a panelOn the surface, with a suitable mounting box (sold separately if required)

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

For installation, you will need basic tools for electrical work and assembly:

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 socket 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 also 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 on the duration and specific conditions of this warranty, please refer to Blue Sea Systems' official documentation or contact our customer service.

The installation of the Blue Sea Systems Dash Socket 12V DC socket is designed to be versatile and adaptable to various marine or recreational vehicle environments.

You have several mounting options:

On the front panel: For direct integration onto the surface of a panel.
Behind a panel: For a flush-mounted installation, where most of the socket is concealed 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 grip to protect the wiring from mechanical stress, ensuring a durable and secure installation.
