Tablou de siguranțe Contura Blue Sea etanș 12 V CC - Alb 8 poziții

The BLUE SEA Contura 8-position circuit breaker panel (reference 8271-BSS) has overall dimensions of 238.00 mm in width by 108.00 mm in height (9-3/8 x 4-1/4 inches). Its depth is 69.90 mm (2-3/4 inches).

Yes, this display is designed to be water-resistant. Its front panel has an IP66 rating, ensuring protection against powerful water jets, salt spray, rain, hose-downs, and brief immersions. It is suitable for deck-mounted applications.

The panel integrates eight 15-amp push-button circuit breakers by default. Each circuit breaker is protected by a waterproof cap, and each Contura ON-OFF switch is equipped with a power indicator LED.

The panel is constructed from 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) thick 5052-H32 aluminum. It undergoes chemical treatment compliant with MIL-SPEC C-5541, followed by a two-part textured polyurethane finish in Arctic white. This build provides durability and corrosion resistance in marine environments.

Each power indicator LED, built into the switch, draws 18 milliamps. These LEDs have an estimated lifespan of 100,000 hours at half-life.

The five main functions of this marine electrical panel are:

Power distribution. Circuit protection (wiring). ON/OFF switching of circuits. Status indication (live circuit).

The panel is supplied with a mounting gasket, mounting screws, and a selection of 60 basic circuit labels to customize the identification of each switch.

Yes, this distribution panel is designed to work with 12 V DC or 24 V DC electrical systems.

For 12 V DC systems, the maximum capacity per switch and circuit breaker is 20 amperes. For 24 V DC systems, the maximum capacity is 15 amperes per switch and circuit breaker. The total cumulative panel capacity is 45 amperes.

No, this panel must not be installed in explosive environments such as gasoline engine rooms or battery compartments. The panel's switches are not spark-proof.

To ensure the water resistance of the front panel, it must be properly sealed to the dashboard surface. The included gasket must be placed between the panel and the mounting surface, and the panel must be firmly screwed in. Make sure all surfaces are clean and free of debris.

Before starting the installation, it is imperative to disconnect the main positive cable from all batteries to eliminate any risk of short-circuit. You must also unplug the AC shore power cord to avoid any risk of electrocution from nearby AC wiring at the DC distribution panel.

The cutting template for panel 8271/8371 specifies a cutout of approximately 218.95 mm (8.620") in width and 108.46 mm (4.270") in height for the main section. Mounting centers are 216.90 mm x 86.90 mm (8-17/32 x 3-13/32 inches). It is recommended to use the provided template for precise cutting.

The positive power wire (red) must be sized according to the total amperage of the circuits routed through the panel. The panel’s total cumulative capacity is 45 amperes. It is recommended to size the positive power wire for the panel’s full capacity, which in most cases will require at least an 8 AWG wire for a 3% voltage drop over a 10-foot length in a 12-volt system. Refer to the wire sizing chart for other scenarios.

Each negative wire (yellow) of the secondary circuits must be connected to a DC negative bus, such as a Blue Sea Systems PN 2301 busbar or MiniBus PN 2304.

A positive wire (red) from each secondary circuit must be connected to the charge terminal of the corresponding switch on the panel.

A selection of 60 base labels is provided with the panel. Choose the appropriate label for each circuit and apply it to the recessed area provided on the front face of the panel.

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

Yes, this Blue Sea Systems waterproof electrical distribution panel is designed to comply with the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards and recommended practices for small boats (section E-9), as well as with the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations 33, Part 183, Subpart I, regarding electrical systems on boats.
