PN 7727 includes a Remote Control Contura Switch,

two connector plugs and an Engine Circuit Link Bus

The SafetyHub 250 combines an ignition protected fuse block with a
remote battery switch and integrated connecting plugs. It is safe
for use on gasoline powered boats, reduces connecting wires, and
consolidates up to seven fused circuits. The SafetyHub 250
provides battery control from a remote location and a local switch for
emergency shutdown or servicing.

The SafetyHub 250 uses a SPDT ON-ON Remote Control Switch for control

from a remote location. The Remote Control Switch should be mounted

in a convenient location for quick access. It incorporates a lockout slide to

reduce the risk of accidental switching.

CAUTION Do not switch the Remote Control Switch to OFF while the

engine is running!

Switch actuator.

LEDs on switch and block

illuminate, indicating that

switched circuits are

ON.

To switch the battery

Unswitched Fused Circuits

Fused circuits A, B, C, and D are always on 24-hour, (non-switched), regardless

of the Remote Control Switch and manual override switch states

(see Illustration 1.2 - System Diagram on reverse side).

Fuses

Unlatch the two yellow tabs on the fuse cover to access fuses.
The

(non-switched) circuits. The total continuous amperage of this block must not

exceed 50A.
The AMI

starting circuit. (See illustration 1.2 on reverse side.)

Indicator LED

The SafetyHub LED will illuminate when the battery switch and high-amp

switched circuits are

ON.

The manual control override knob overrides the Remote Control Switch

and provides:

• An added level of safety that allows manual ON-OFF control with or

without power

• LOCK OFF position for servicing the electrical system or to disconnect the

battery bank and high-amperage circuits in an emergency
