BEP Marine 12V Red LED Momentary Push Button Switch

Built for a 12-volt marine circuit, the BEP Marine Red LED Momentary Push Button Switch provides a clean alternative to a projecting toggle lever. Its spring-return, normally off action is useful when the operator needs a short command rather than a maintained on/off setting. The illuminated red ring gives the button a visible position after dark, and this 12V version is marked by part 80-511-0002-00.

The switch uses stainless-steel components with silver-alloy contacts for repeated operation at the helm or on an accessory panel. Its IP67 classification addresses exposure around a marine control surface, while the direct-contact current limit is 5 amps. For a motor or other load above that rating, design the circuit around a correctly sized relay and fuse.

Confirm that the panel's supply is 12V before wiring the illumination ring and switch contacts. The momentary Off/(On) configuration should return immediately when the operator takes a finger off the button, so test that behavior before finishing the installation. Support the conductors behind the panel and check that the button remains accessible without being pressed accidentally by nearby equipment.
