DC analog ammeter for monitoring 0–25 amperes in marine and other 12–16V DC electrical systems, with an internal shunt and backlit face for clear current readings.

The Blue Sea Systems 8005 measures DC current on an analog scale from 0 to 25A. Its internal shunt simplifies installation, while the backlit face improves visibility in low-light conditions. The meter uses a 2-3/4-inch face and draws 1mA at full scale. It’s suited to monitoring circuits such as solar, wind-generator, and other onboard DC power applications.

  • 0–25A DC measurement range: Shows current draw or output on an easy-to-read analog scale.
  • Internal shunt: Senses current without requiring a separate external shunt.
  • 2-3/4-inch face: Provides a readable display for marine panels and electrical monitoring layouts.
  • Backlit meter face: Supports viewing in low-light conditions; backlight connections require a DC power source.
  • 8–16V DC input range: Fits common low-voltage marine electrical systems.
  • 1mA full-scale meter draw: Helps keep the instrument’s operating consumption low.
Use the 8005 to observe current flow in a boat’s DC electrical system, including charging, auxiliary, solar, or wind-generator circuits. The analog pointer provides an immediate visual indication of amperage without requiring a digital display or network connection. Its internal shunt keeps the current-sensing hardware integrated into the meter, helping simplify panel planning and installation. The backlit face makes readings easier to see when operating equipment after dark or inside a dim cabin. The meter is factory calibrated and has a stated accuracy of 3% of the scale range. Installation can use surface mounting or panel mounting, with a 1-7/8-inch mounting hole for the 8005.
