Gauges
Gauges for many different locations on the boat.
In the Gauges section you will find the analogue and digital gauges needed to monitor the boat's systems. Boat gauges show speed, engine revolutions, the levels in the fuel and water tanks and the state of the electrical system and engine. The range includes gauges from Wema, Veratron and Gobius, for example.
Choose the gauge by what you want to measure
- Tachometers: engine speed and running hours
- Speed gauges: for example GPS speedometers
- Fuel gauges and water tank gauges
- Voltmeters and ammeters: battery and charging monitoring
- Water temperature gauges and oil temperature gauges
- Holding tank gauges: waste water level
- Water and fuel tank senders: senders to pair with tank gauges
Analogue or digital instruments?
Analogue gauges are simple to install and easy to read. For example, the Wema tachometer is available in 4000 rpm and 8000 rpm ranges, and the 4000 rpm model has an LCD hour meter; it connects to the alternator's W terminal and works on 12 or 24 V. The Wema GPS speedometer shows speed on an analogue dial and heading digitally, and comes in 15, 30 and 60 knot ranges. The Veratron VL Flex 52 is a multifunction gauge that supports analogue senders as well as NMEA 2000 and LIN buses and can show engine speed, temperature and pressure, for example. NMEA 2000 gauges and senders can also be shown on a chartplotter: read Creating an NMEA 2000 network.
Gauge and sender must be compatible
Tank gauges need a sender whose resistance range matches the gauge. Wema products are available for 0–190 ? and 240–30 ? senders, for example, and S3 and S5 senders come in many lengths. Check the compatibility of gauge and sender on the product page before ordering.
