DESCRIPTION
Precision Double Pole Switching for Blue Sea Systems 360 Panel Modules
The Blue Sea DPDT On-Off-(On) Rocker Switch (SKU: BS-7494B) is a specialized electrical component engineered specifically for integration into Blue Sea Systems 360 Panel architectures. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of marine, caravan, and off-grid electrical setups, this switch provides reliable multi-circuit control within a compact, modular footprint. Whether you are building a custom power distribution board from the ground up or replacing an existing switch within your setup, this component delivers consistent tactile feedback and dependable circuit management.
Versatile On-Off-(On) Momentary Action and DPDT Configuration
Featuring a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) configuration, this rocker switch allows you to control two independent circuits simultaneously or manage complex polarity-reversing applications using a single actuator. The three-position On-Off-(On) switching action provides exceptional versatility for complex DC systems. Note that the parentheses in the configuration indicate a momentary position: the switch features one maintained "On" position, a central "Off" position, and a spring-loaded momentary "(On)" position that returns to the centre "Off" state when released.
This specific switching logic is highly beneficial for applications requiring both continuous operation and temporary actuation. Common use cases include bilge pump control (auto vs. manual momentary override), windscreen wipers with a momentary wash function, or dual-battery monitoring where you want to momentarily check the voltage of a secondary auxiliary battery without leaving the gauge permanently powered on.
Key Features and System Benefits
- Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) Design: Controls two separate circuits at once, reducing the number of individual switches required on your dashboard or control panel.
- Maintained and Momentary Action: The On-Off-(On) configuration supports continuous circuit engagement in one direction and temporary, spring-return actuation in the other.
- Clear Visual Indicators: Marked with high-contrast white "I", "O", and "II" symbols against a matte black body for straightforward, at-a-glance status identification in low-light cabins or helm stations.
- Seamless 360 Panel Integration: Purpose-built for snap-in installation into designated Blue Sea 360 Panel modules, ensuring a flush, factory-grade finish.
- Reduced Installation Risk: Eliminates the loose fitment, irregular cutouts, and premature mechanical failure often experienced when attempting to retrofit standard aftermarket switches into specialized modular panels.
Specific Module Compatibility
To ensure optimal fitment and electrical compatibility, the BS-7494B rocker switch is engineered exclusively for use within the Blue Sea 360 Panel System. It is specified for direct integration into the following 360 Panel modules:
- Gauge Modules: Ideal for toggling between multiple tank senders or battery banks on a single display gauge.
- DC Push Button + Switch Modules: Expands the functional capabilities of your primary DC switching array.
- DC Battery Management Modules: Provides reliable manual control over auxiliary battery functions and monitoring circuits.
