Perko Medium Prefocus Socket, For 0800 and 1900 Series Solar-Ray Searchlights, Socket Code E

Overview

The Perko 0895 is a medium prefocus replacement socket for Perko 0800 Series and 1900 Series Solar-Ray searchlights. It is made for restoring the lamp socket connection inside a compatible searchlight assembly when the original socket is worn, damaged, or no longer holding the bulb correctly.

This socket uses Socket Code E, which is the key detail to match before ordering. It is not a universal light fixture or a complete searchlight assembly, so the existing Perko searchlight series and socket code should be checked against the unit on board before installation.

Key features

• Medium prefocus socket for compatible Perko marine searchlights.
• Replacement part for 0800 Series and 1900 Series Solar-Ray searchlights.
• Socket Code E for matching the correct replacement socket to the existing assembly.
• Useful for service work on deck-mounted or pilothouse-controlled searchlights where the lamp socket has become the failure point.
• Helps keep an existing Perko searchlight in service without replacing the full light assembly when the socket is the part that needs attention.

Compatibility and fit

This socket should be matched to Perko 0800 Series or 1900 Series Solar-Ray searchlights that call for a medium prefocus socket with Socket Code E. Before installation, compare the existing socket style and code, and check the searchlight model so the replacement matches the housing and lamp arrangement already on the vessel.

Installation and service notes

Installation should be handled with the searchlight circuit switched off and isolated from power. On boats that see salt spray, vibration, and heat from long searchlight use, the socket area is worth inspecting for corrosion, loose terminals, heat damage, and wiring condition before fitting the replacement part.

This part is a practical match for boat owners, yards, and technicians servicing older Perko searchlights on cruising boats, workboats, fishing boats, and other vessels where keeping the existing searchlight assembly operational is preferred over replacing the whole unit.
