Voltmetras CC (nuolatinė srovė) – 8–16 V DC

The Blue Sea 8003 analog voltmeter is designed to monitor onboard electrical systems by providing an accurate voltage measurement. It is an essential tool for proactive battery management.

This voltmeter operates on an input voltage range from 8 V DC to 16 V DC.

The Blue Sea 8003 analog voltmeter provides an accuracy of 3% of full scale.

Yes, the voltmeter is equipped with LED backlighting. For a 12V DC system, the backlight is red, and for a 24V DC system, it is orange.

The voltmeter's electrical consumption is only 1 milliampere. The backlight consumes about 16 mA for a 12V DC system (red) and 20 mA for a 24V DC system (orange).

Yes, the needle of all analog voltmeters can be recalibrated if necessary. Use a small screwdriver to turn the pitch adjustment screw more than 90° to the left or right.

No, the Blue Sea 8003 voltmeter is not ignition-protected. It must be installed in a location shielded from flammable vapors.

This voltmeter can be mounted in two ways: surface mount or panel mount.

The required mounting hole for model 8003 is 53.95 mm (1-7/8 inches) in diameter.

Use a minimum 16 AWG wire. Red is for positive and black or yellow for negative (ABYC recommends yellow for negative).

Yes, it is mandatory to install a 1 amp fuse on the positive wire, near the power source.

For backlighting:

Connect the negative yellow wire to a DC ground. Connect the positive red wire to a positive 12V DC power supply, or the positive orange wire to a positive 24V DC power supply. The positive power supply is typically connected to a switch that controls the vessel's night lighting. The unused positive wire must be insulated.

Yes, select a mounting location protected from water at the front and rear of the meter. Also avoid areas where flammable vapors (propane, gasoline, lead-acid batteries) could accumulate, as the voltmeter is not protected against ignition.

No, the voltmeter must not be connected in series (inline) on a circuit. It must be wired in parallel.

Yes, the voltmeter is compatible with 12V DC and 24V DC systems for its backlighting, although its measurement range is 8 to 16V DC. It is designed for systems with a nominal voltage within this range.

Model PN 8003 is the standard voltmeter, whereas PN 8028 is a micro-voltmeter. They differ in their physical dimensions: the 8003 has a front width of 66.68 mm and a mounting hole of 53.95 mm, while the 8028 is smaller.

Yes, the voltmeter can be used to measure the open-circuit voltage of different types of batteries. However, note that different battery types require different voltage stabilization times for reliable readings.

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

Yes, the nuts and washers required to secure the four mounting studs are provided in the accessory package.
