Sailboat hydraulic power unit PP III

platformfor doorswindlass

Power pack size 3, in contrast to size 2 unit is equipped with a twin pump system and can supply twice the volume flow within the 100 bar pressure range. Hence this power pack is a very powerful yet compact unit. By using anodised aluminium throughout we have achieved maximum corrosion resistance and a weight of only 55 kg (121 lbs.) with up to ten functions. The unit is suitable for controlling up ten applications e.g. roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls, hydraulic winches by LEWMAR up to 88 HST, hydraulic winches by ANDERSEN up to 68 STH, windlasses and a wide variety of ramps, doors and platforms. If you don't find your desired application in this list, please ask us. The unit is supplied fully wired to an electrical control box (circuit board), which facilitates quick and convenient connection to a push button cable via the terminal block. Pressure stage control is purely mechanical and overload protection does not employ any electronic components, thus guaranteeing fault free operation. The special design of this unit provides for convenient and time saving maintenance because all parts are accessible without having to open the fluid reservoir. All functions are indicated by LED's, thus simplifying fault finding. An integral fan and thermal switch prevent overheating of the 3 kW electric motor during overload conditions. An oil sight glass for visual inspection of the fluid level is provided and an additional electrical oil level check will report any loss of fluid. The suction line of the pump incorporates a filtering system, which protects valves and motors from contamination.
