This 30A circuit breaker offers a durable, weather-resistant construction suitable for installation on gasoline-powered boats, combining safety and functionality in one compact unit. Its thermally responsive bi-metal blade ensures precise trip operation, providing overcurrent protection for your electrical circuits while maintaining ease of use with a visible reset lever that clearly indicates when the breaker is open.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis breaker is a direct drop-in replacement for the 185-Series circuits, ensuring compatibility and simplified upgrades. The unit features a trip-free design, preventing the breaker from being held closed after it trips, which enhances safety by ensuring the circuit is truly interrupted during faults. It meets SAE J1171 external ignition protection standards, making it safe for installation in environments with ignition sources, and is rated for a maximum voltage of 48V DC, ideal for various marine applications. The breaker is designed for surface mounting, with M6 terminal studs that accept 1\/4 inch ring terminals, and has a terminal stud torque of 50 inch-pounds for secure connections.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBuilt for demanding conditions, the Blue Sea 285-Series breaker can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of environments. With an interrupt capacity of 3,000 amps at 48 volts, it provides robust protection against electrical faults, safeguarding your boat's electrical system from damage. Its weather-resistant design ensures longevity and dependable operation even in harsh marine conditions. Note that this breaker is not intended for use as a switching device where high inrush currents are expected, emphasizing its role in circuit protection rather than load switching.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOverall, the Blue Sea Systems 285-Series Circuit Breaker offers a combination of safety, durability, and ease of installation, making it an ideal choice for marine electrical systems requiring reliable overcurrent protection with a clear visual indicator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDrop-in replacement for 185-Series Circuit Breakers\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVisible reset lever clearly indicates open condition\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIgnition protected: meets SAE J1171 standards for safe installation on gasoline-powered boats\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eWeather-resistant construction for marine environments\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIntegrates switching and circuit breaker functions into one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eTrip-free design prevents manual override after trip\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRated for 30 amps at 48V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSurface mount with M6 terminal studs for secure connections\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eOperates reliably from -40°C to 85°C\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh interrupt capacity of 3,000 amps at 48V\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Blue Sea Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44403500318762,"sku":"BSS7181","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2285\/8794\/files\/4109452.jpg?v=1780422785","url":"https:\/\/atticusgoods.com\/products\/blue-sea-systems-285-series-30-amp-surface-mount-circuit-breaker-part-7181-bss","provider":"Atticus Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
