Sized against ABYC E-11. The design current is the part's continuous draw. The length is one way; voltage drop includes an equal-length return.
Run-length and manufacturer assumptions
The editable example uses 3.048 m (10 ft) runs unless a shorter run is stated. Metric overviews round these to 3 m. Adapt the parts and lengths to your installation before choosing cable and protection.
Supporting parts
- 6.1 m total of 1.5 mm² (16 AWG) marine cable
- Terminations for 1.5 mm² cable, matched to the equipment's screw terminals, leads or studs
- 1 A fuse and holder on the positive run
- Heat-shrink, strain relief and terminal boots sized to the cable
Check stud sizes, fuse type, run length and how warm the space gets against the gear you actually have before you order.

Which Sirocco II and what current?
The 7010 Sirocco II is a cabin circulation fan with automatic 12/24 V sensing. The official online operating manual covers white 7010CAWBX and black 7010CABBX. At 12 V, low/medium/high speed draws 0.12/0.22/0.35 A; at 24 V those values are 0.06/0.11/0.21 A. The catalog uses the 12 V high-speed value. This is not an ignition-protected engine-space or bilge blower.
How should it be mounted and wired?
Use the backing plate and the manual's six #6 fasteners on a suitable structure. Adhesive positioning alone does not retain the fan in a moving vehicle. Leave enough clearance for the gimbal to move without striking furniture or trapping its wiring. Wire the marked positive and negative connections at the base, retaining the supplied nuts and lock washers and tightening them securely as instructed.
The manual describes reverse-polarity and overcurrent protection but does not prescribe an external branch-fuse value. A protected supply is still needed for the cable from the DC distribution point. The 0.35 A terminal envelope in this catalog is the documented 12 V load, not a hardware connector ampacity or permission to leave the feed unprotected.
How do the controls work?
Set the desired direction and lock the gimbal before operation. The power/speed button steps through the three speeds; the timer offers 3, 6, 9 or 12 hours. Check the illuminated timer indicators so an intentional timed shutdown is not mistaken for a power fault. Use lower speed or shorter run time when quiet operation or energy saving matters.
What are the limits and routine checks?
Install in a dry cabin location; this fan is not intended for outdoor exposure, spray or immersion. Keep fingers and loose objects clear of the blades. Isolate power before cleaning, and remove dust gently without forcing the blades or controls. If it fails to start, check the polarity at the fan, the upstream protective device, the base-terminal connections and supply voltage. Use the manual's fault guidance before dismantling the fan.
