Traditionell málmarspjald fyrir DC – 8 raðir

The Blue Sea 8023-BSS DC electrical panel is made from 5052-H32 aluminum alloy, 3.175 mm (1/8 inch) thick. Its finish is a textured polyurethane in graphite color, applied after a chemical treatment compliant with military specification C-5541C, providing excellent corrosion resistance.

This panel is designed to handle a total capacity of 100 amperes in continuous direct current (DC).

The 8023-BSS panel integrates 8 circuit positions for electrical distribution.

The panel comes with five pre-installed 15 A AC/DC magnetic circuit breakers (toggle type) from the A series. There is space for three additional circuit breakers if needed.

Yes, the busbars in this panel are made of tinned copper, which optimizes their electrical conductivity and improves their resistance to corrosion, ensuring better durability in a marine environment.

Yes, each circuit label position is backlit for improved visibility. Additionally, 'ON' status LEDs are installed on all circuit positions for quick visual diagnostics of circuit states.

The overall dimensions of the 8023-BSS panel are 133.4 mm in height by 190.5 mm in width (5-1/4 inches x 7-1/2 inches).

Yes, the panel is supplied with a set of large-format DC labels (reference 8030) to clearly identify each circuit.

A marine electrical panel serves several main purposes:

Distributing electrical power.Protecting circuits (and wires) from overloads.Turning circuits ON/OFF.Indicating circuit status (whether they are live).

Yes, the panel is designed for DC electrical distribution and is compatible with 12 V or 24 V DC systems. Voltage identification labels are provided to clearly configure the panel according to your system's voltage.

Yes, the included 15-amp magnetic circuit breakers are AC/DC-rated, meaning they can protect both alternating current and direct current circuits.

This panel complies with the safety standards and recommended practices set by the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) for small craft (sections E-1, E-3, E-9), as well as Subpart 1 of the U.S. Coast Guard electrical systems (33 CFR).

The panel is supplied with 15 amp circuit breakers. You may remove and replace these breakers with higher-rated ones if the branch circuits you wish to protect require it, provided you ensure the wire gauge is appropriate for the chosen amperage.

Installing this product requires in-depth knowledge of marine electrical systems. If you are not familiar with these systems, it is strongly recommended to hire a professional electrician for installation to ensure safety and proper operation.

Before starting the installation, it is imperative to disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries to eliminate any risk of short-circuit. If your boat is connected to shore power, also unplug the AC power cord to prevent any risk of electrocution.

The panel must not be installed in explosive environments, such as gasoline engine rooms or battery compartments, as the circuit breakers are not spark-proof. It is also recommended to choose a location protected from water, both at the front and rear of the panel.

Specific labels are provided with the panel to permanently identify your system's voltage (12 V or 24 V DC) and type, as required by ABYC. You must apply the appropriate voltage label on the recessed area at the front of the panel.

For branch circuits, connect the positive wires (red) to the load terminals of each circuit breaker. Then connect each negative wire (black or yellow) to the DC negative bus of the panel. It is important not to confuse the DC negative bus with the DC ground bus.

To simplify installation and reduce assembly time, all positive, negative, and ground buses are pre-wired inside the panel. This also helps minimize potential errors during connection.

Blue Sea Systems is committed to customer satisfaction. If a customer is not satisfied with this product, they may return it for a replacement at any time, in accordance with the brand's policy.
