NOTE
a) Conductor length means the actual length of the conductor between the battery and
Windlass.
b) Recommendations allow for a maximum 10% voltage drop approximately over the
conductor length.
c) Where portion of cable runs through the engine room a size increase should be made
as indicated.
d) Recommendations assume cable insulation has a minimum thermal rating of 90ºC.
e)
The above recommendations are in accordance with the requirements of
USCG, ABYC AND NMMA.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
Pressure/flow
quoted in specification on page 4 assumes operation at rated capacity
with standard motor fitted. Levels below that specified can be accommodated, by a
motor change, with a corresponding change to stall torque and/or speed. (Refer chart
page 5).
Several levels of supply and control are possible.
BASIC SYSTEM
(Refer drawing B203101 and B203103).
This covers applications where the Windlass is supplied from an engine driven pump or
single function power pack. Control of the Windlass is via a hydraulic bi-directional
solenoid valve which is operated by a self centering UP/DOWN toggle switch type
remote control or the footswitches.
Use of MAXWELL’S Hydraulic Single Function Controller
will enhance the system
and allow the interfacing of self centering UP/DOWN toggle switch control and
footswitches, with the hydraulic bi-directional solenoid valve controlling the oil flow to the
Windlass. This unit also provides for remote controlling the oil flow to the Windlass.
This unit also provides for remote controlling the electric clutch of a main engine pump
or the hydraulic power pack motor starter.
The controller must be located in a dry area.
IT MUST NOT BE LOCATED IN THE WET ENVIRONMENT OF THE CHAIN
LOCKER.
