Vodna stikala serije 285 - površinska montaža 80 A

The BLUE SEA 285 series circuit breaker is an electrical protection device designed for marine environments. It protects circuits from overcurrents and short circuits, preventing equipment damage and fire hazards. This specific model is an 80-amp circuit breaker.

An 80-amp circuit breaker protects electrical circuits supplying high-current equipment such as inverters, bow thrusters, windlasses, or large-capacity battery charging systems aboard a boat. It provides automatic shutdown in case of overload.

This circuit breaker is designed for surface mounting. This means it is fixed directly to a wall or panel using screws, without requiring any cut-out in the mounting surface for installation. The connection terminals are then accessible for wiring.

Yes, the BLUE SEA 285 series circuit breaker is specifically designed for marine applications. It is manufactured with corrosion-resistant materials and is built to operate reliably under the demanding conditions encountered on board boats, such as humidity and vibrations.

The BLUE SEA 285 series circuit breaker is designed for direct current (DC) systems and can handle voltages up to 48V DC. It is commonly used in 12V, 24V, and 48V systems on boats.

Yes, the BLUE SEA 285 series circuit breaker is "ignition protected" (Ignition Protected) in accordance with SAE J1171. This means it can be safely installed in a boat engine compartment where gasoline vapors may be present, without risk of causing an explosion.

This circuit breaker is a manually resettable model. After a trip caused by an overload or short circuit, simply press the reset button to restore power to the circuit once the cause of the trip has been identified and corrected.

It is essential to use cables with the appropriate cross-section for the 80-ampere load and circuit length, in accordance with marine standards (e.g., ABYC). The circuit breaker terminals are typically stud terminals designed for heavy-duty cable lugs, ensuring a secure and low-resistance connection.

The interrupting rating (AIC - Ampere Interrupting Capacity) of the Blue Sea Systems 285 series is 3000 amperes at 48V DC. This value indicates the maximum current it can safely interrupt during a short circuit without being damaged.

Yes, a circuit breaker like this one can replace a fuse of the same rating (80 A) for circuit protection. The main advantage is that it can be manually reset after tripping, unlike a fuse which must be replaced.

Yes, this circuit breaker is fully compatible with 12V DC and 24V DC marine electrical systems. Its maximum 48V DC rating makes it versatile for various onboard voltage configurations.

Installation of this circuit breaker typically requires standard marine electrical tools, such as screwdrivers, wire strippers, crimping pliers for cable terminals, and possibly a drill for mounting holes. No specialized tools are needed.

Blue Sea Systems 285 series circuit breakers are designed to operate across a wide temperature range typical of marine environments, generally from -40°C to +85°C. This ensures reliability in various climatic conditions.

The circuit breaker's amperage rating must match the maximum consumption of the equipment or circuit it protects, while remaining below the wiring's current capacity. For this model, it is 80 amperes, making it suitable for high loads. It is critical to consult your equipment specifications and wire gauge charts.

The connection terminals on this circuit breaker are robust threaded studs. While they are exposed for cable connections, the circuit breaker itself is designed to be weather-resistant. It is recommended to use insulated terminals and ensure that connections are tight and protected from excessive moisture.

Yes, the reset button on the BLUE SEA 285 series circuit breaker also serves as a visual indicator. When in the "ON" position, the button is recessed. If it has tripped, the button pops out, clearly indicating that the circuit is open and the breaker has operated to protect the system.
