The Philippi Switch Panel STV 236 is a DC circuit distributor with an integrated battery/tank monitor BTM2, combining 14 fused circuits, a navigation light monitoring system, and a USB-C/A charging socket for larger motor and sailing yachts with GRP hulls in 12/24V onboard electrical systems.
- Keeps track of battery status, charging current, and tank levels at all times, without needing to install an additional device in the switch panel
- Warns visually and audibly if a navigation light fails – important for safety during night cruising
- Saves space and wiring effort, as the monitor, circuit breakers, and charging socket are combined in one switch panel
- Can be integrated directly into the existing onboard network and chart plotter system via NMEA 2000
The STV 236 protects 14 circuits via thermal rocker circuit breakers with a 10 A rated current (optional 2/6/16/20 A) and is suitable for use in GRP hulls. The integrated battery/tank monitor BTM2 displays battery voltage, charge status, charge/discharge current, and up to four tank levels in real-time on a 3.5" color touchscreen. Two switches (0-1, 1-0-2) allow specific consumer circuits to be switched, while the integrated dual USB-C/A charging socket powers mobile devices directly at the switch panel.
If you operate a metal vessel, you will need the two-pole version STV 234-2p for corrosion protection reasons. Those who desire full P-Bus monitoring with access to additional sensor data will find the suitable alternative in the STV 256 (PSM3) or the STV 274 (larger PSL display). The shunt SHE 348 for current measurement is not included and must be ordered separately.
