Switches, Knobs and Bezels - Push Button Switches - Bluewater

Deutsch Plug ONLY for 19mm and 22mm Switches

These plugs are required if you buy switches without wire harnesses. This will allow you to build your own harnesses with wiring to your spec. These are the plug only. No wiring or connectors are included.

Small and Large Connector Pins for 19mm and 22mm Switches

These pins are required if you want to build your own harnesses. This will allow you to build your own harnesses with wiring to your spec. These are the connectors only. No wiring or plugs are included.

These dummy plugs are used in the switch Deutsch connectors when you are not using one of the wire holes.

Stainless Steel Nut for 19mm and 22mm Switches

Replace the stock plastic nut with these stainless steel nuts for extra durability and longevity.

Replacement Plastic Nut for 19mm and 22mm Switches

Replacement for the stock plastic nut on Bluewater switches.

This tool allows you to easily install the nut on the back of your switch. Can be used with 1/4" drive ratchet.

This tool allows you to crimp Deutsch connector pins to 14-24 AWG Wire

This marine grade electrical choke prevents voltage spikes – caused by noisy loads – from potentially damaging or preventing Bluewater push button switches (and other MOSFET driven push button switches) from entering In Rush protection mode.

It is highly recommended for switches that control constant pressure washdown pumps commonly used in freshwater systems. The electrical choke houses two coils which dampen the alternating transient signals coming from your noisy loads like washdown pumps; providing a clean flow of DC power to your switch.

To install the choke, simply butt connect the ends in series with the output of the switch; Preferably as close to the pump as possible, but can be done anywhere between the switch output and the load device in the positive conductor.

INTENDED SWITCH USAGE:

• Wash down
• Raw Water
• Fresh Water

Relays and Bi-Stable relays such as a Remote Battery Switch or Charge Control Relay exhibit similar behavior as above only have low amperage requirements in some cases less than 250 milliamps not even 1 Ampere required by the device. But the bounce or magnitude of the resulting EFT (electrical fast transient) when being switched can be excessively high.

LED Lights, not all but some have internal power controllers. Others have basic switching drivers and have high noise or EFT (electrical fast transients) present while operating and when being switched on of a high magnitude and are expected; some are harsher than others. Could be very small LED’s or large spreader LED lights; either could have similar negative electronic behavioral effects. Again, even ones that consume less than 1 amp could be a significant contributor to faults.

None of the above has to do with the quality of a particular manufacturer it simply is an inherent characteristic of the referenced devices. However, there is a simple solution. Again, typically there is one switch or device when being turned on or operating that is attributing to In-Rush fault indication and easily identified. Typically, when being turned on or off however in the LED example it may not occur until after a long period of operation when voltage is depleted or temperature increases. In both examples B & C a 16V 1000uF electrolytic capacitor Part ID: 1406-000-001 can be installed across the Line V+ and Ground near the switch to correct the issue creating the fault.
