Technical Specifi cations
Side-Power Windlass Control Unit is designed to control the Side-Power Mini, Midi and Maxi windlasses. These windlasses are equipped with a “Free
fall” system allowing the anchor rope to wind out freely for a quick anchor drop and easy mooring bow/stern against peer or land. The free fall is
initiated by pushing the “Down” bottom on your panel or remote control. The anchor weight and fi tting of the anchor bracket must be selected so the
anchor will drop/fall out when released.
The Side-Power Windlass Control Unit is compatible with SidePower panels and remote control systems. Special care have been taken to simplify
intstallation, improve usability and the inherent features of this control unit. Additionally this controller has a range of new security features. Still, be
aware that anchor loads may be very high, this equipment must be operated wisely, and only by responsible crew knowing how the system works.
• Automatic detection of 12V or 24V system.
• Programmable windlass type (Mini/Midi/Maxi/Maxi Chain)
• LEDs Power for program/failure/end stop indication.
• PWM speed control.
• Over-current limiting and motor overheat protecting algorithm protects motor from damage. Note that there is no physical temperature sensor in the
motor.
• Motor Soft Start.
• Reduced speed and force limit after fi rst end stop detection.
• Two end stop points can be detected (detected by metal wire spun around the rope at user selected positions). Maxi Chain windlass does not include
the end stop function.
• Power relays disconnect motor power when the windlass is not in use or if a fault has been detected.
• Delayed start on operation “OUT” to safeguard against unwanted operation.
• Physically separated terminals reduce risk of short circuits
IMPORTANT
This manual contains information you need to know before installing the windlass. Please read it carefully.
• Keep your distance to the windlass, the rope, anchor and anchor brackets during operation.
• Keep the rope/chain under observation during anchor handling.
• Make sure anyone using the windlass knows how to operate it.
• Be aware when the anchor are raised as it can bring unwanted debris up from the bottom, potentially damaging your boat.
• If the windlass is straining as the anchor are raised, stop for a few seconds and let the boat pic up momentum before continuing
the raise.
• If the anchor is stuck, release some rope/chain and attach it to a cleat before using the boat to pull the anchor free. The windlass
is not designed for loads beyond the specifi ed pull capabilities.
• The anchor must always be secured to the boat while sailing. Use the security line or other means to prevent unintentional
anchor drop.
• Turn off the power to the windlass when not in use.
• Children must not operate the windlass.
• Careless use can cause damage or injury!
• Make sure to have good battery capacity, and keep the engine running windlass operation.
• Sleipner Motor AS is not responsible for injury caused by the use of our windlass systems.
