Blūzī Kontūra ūdensnecaurstošais 12 V līdzstrāvas panelis - 4 pozīcijas

The panel is made of 5052-H32 aluminum alloy with a thickness of 2.54 mm (0.100”).

The overall dimensions of the panel are 133.40 mm x 95.30 mm (5-1/4” x 3-3/4”). Its depth is 69.90 mm (2-3/4”).

Yes, this panel is specifically designed to withstand common water exposures above deck, including salt spray, rain, jet washes, and brief immersions.

The fuse holders accept AGC (fast-acting) and MDL (slow-acting) glass fuses measuring 3.175 cm x 0.635 cm (1-1/4” x 1/4”). 15-amp AGC fuses are supplied and installed.

Each switch and fuse holder has a maximum rating of 20 amps for a 12-volt system and 15 amps for a 24-volt system.

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

Yes, the panel is designed to work with 12 or 24 V DC systems.

Yes, each switch is fitted with an integrated LED indicator. These LEDs are rated for a lifespan of 100,000 hours (at half-life) and allow the circuit status to be monitored.

Yes, 60 base labels are provided to help you identify and customize the various circuits of the panel.

The panel has a chemical treatment compliant with military specification C-5541C and a two-component textured graphite polyurethane finish, ensuring durability against marine conditions.

Before any installation, it is imperative to disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries and unplug the AC power cord from the boat. This eliminates the risk of short-circuit during installation and the risk of electrocution from AC wiring.

Yes, the panel must not be installed in explosive environments, such as gasoline engine compartments or battery compartments, as the switches are not protected against ignition of vapors.

A sealing gasket is included and must be positioned between the panel and the mounting surface. It is essential to firmly screw the panel to ensure adequate watertightness if the front face is exposed to water.

The positive power feed wire should be sized for the panel’s full current rating, which is 45 amps. In most cases, this will require at least an 8 AWG wire for a 3-meter (10-foot) circuit length between the panel and batteries in 12-volt systems, targeting a 3% voltage drop.

Use a 16 AWG wire to connect the LED negative power wire (usually yellow) to the DC negative bus of your system.

The correct wire gauge for each branch circuit must be determined by calculating the circuit’s maximum sustained amperage and its length. Aim for a 3% voltage drop for safety-critical loads (such as navigation lights, bilge blowers, electronics) and 10% for non-critical loads (such as cabin lights or bait pumps).

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

The mounting centers for the 8262 panel are 112.30 mm x 74.20 mm (4-13/32" x 2-29/32").
