Overview

The Blue Sea Systems 1522 is a 12V DC control panel for two bilge pumps, with a compact 4.75 in. by 4.88 in. face size that fits neatly into a helm or electrical panel layout. It brings manual control, circuit protection, and status indication together in one place, which is useful when you want both pump circuits easy to reach and easy to check.

Each pump circuit has its own restricted-off breaker and its own rocker switch. The indicator light shows when power is available at the float switch, and it also lights when the pump is running as a result of float switch operation. On boats with separate forward and aft bilge areas, or a primary pump and a backup pump, that makes it easier to see what each circuit is doing without tracing wiring below deck.

Key features

• Controls two bilge pump circuits from one 12V DC panel
• Uses two restricted-off circuit breakers to keep the float switch circuits protected around the clock
• Includes manual override rocker switches for direct pump control when needed
• LED indication shows power at the float switch and also shows when a pump is running
• Compact panel size suits tighter dash and switch panel spaces

Installation and setup

This panel suits installations that already use automatic float switches and need a clean control point for manual override. The separate controls make sense when the boat has two independent bilge areas or two pumps with different jobs in the same bilge space. Because the panel is small, it is easier to place in a console, cabin switch area, or another protected location where pump status should stay visible.

For a proper fit, check that your boat is wired as a 12V DC system and that each pump circuit is appropriate for the included 10A breaker setup. This panel is a practical match when you want separate control and protection for each pump instead of combining both pumps on a single switch arrangement.
