Based on the available SeaStar Solutions (Dometic) product documentation, the CH5200P (often referred to as the Twin S or Single S series) is a popular, heavy-duty mechanical control, while the CH5420P likely refers to a specific variant within that same single-function top-mount family.
These controls are designed for inboard, stern drive, and outboard engines that require separate levers for throttle and shift.
