Blue Sea 8236 DC Digital Ammeter [8236]

DC Digital Ammeter

This amazing DC digital ammeter shows amperage from -500 to +500 Amps. It has 3 levels of display brightness, so you can see it clearly in different lighting conditions. The front is splashproof, which is great for tough environments. There's a manual sleep mode to save power by blanking the display. The standard meter works on the negative side of the circuit, but you'll need a Shunt Shifter for positive side installation like in alternators. It comes with a 500 Amp shunt and is suitable for 12, 24, 32, 36, and 42 Volt DC systems.

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including di(2 - ethylhexyl)phthalate (dehp) which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Using this DC digital ammeter is easy. First, make sure to install it correctly. If you're installing it on the negative side of the circuit, you can use the standard meter. But if you need to install it on the positive side, like in alternators, you'll need a Shunt Shifter. Once installed, you can adjust the display brightness to one of the 3 levels according to your needs. The ammeter will show you the amperage from -500 to +500 Amps clearly. When you don't need to use it for a while, you can activate the manual sleep mode to save power. As for maintenance, keep the front clean and dry since it's splashproof but not fully waterproof. Remember, this product can expose you to harmful chemicals, so handle it with care. Check P65Warnings.ca.gov for more information about the chemicals.
