BEP Marine 35A SPST Momentary Push Button Switch

The BEP Marine heavy-duty push button switch provides a spring-return control for equipment that should operate only while the button is held. That action makes it well suited to intermittent horn, windshield-wiper, and similar momentary circuits. The single-pole design switches one circuit directly and returns to off when pressure is released. Its robust construction is aimed at workboat, marine, and vehicle panels where a small light-duty button would be inadequate.

The switch uses screw terminals for a secure wired connection and can be installed through relatively thick panel material. Its broad DC operating range gives builders flexibility across common low-voltage electrical systems. A replaceable cap allows the visible control surface to be serviced without replacing the entire switch. The unit is also cross-referenced to the Cole Hersee M-490 for installations that need an equivalent replacement. The switch is specified for 6-36V DC systems and is rated for 35A at 12V DC. Rear connections use #8-32 screw terminals, and the threaded body fits panel material up to 1 in thick.

• Spring-return action for horn, wiper, and similar momentary circuits
• Heavy-duty screw-terminal construction
• Replaceable push-button cap
• Cross-references to Cole Hersee M-490

Use the switch only on a circuit whose current and conductor size fit the switch rating, or use it to control a relay for larger loads. Leave enough clearance behind the panel for terminal hardware and strain-relieved wiring. For compatible replacement parts and related equipment, browse more Marine Electrical Switches.
