Lewmar comfort kit 12 V / 700 W for windlass

The Lewmar 12 V / 700 W comfort kit is a set of accessories designed to improve the use and control of compatible Lewmar windlasses. It allows for easier management of the windlass, particularly from the helm station.

This comfort kit includes several essential components for the operation and control of your windlass. It contains:

A crank handleA circuit breakerA cockpit control

The crank included in the comfort kit is an essential backup tool. It allows manual retrieval of the anchor chain or rode in the event of an electric windlass failure or onboard power outage.

The circuit breaker supplied in the comfort kit is designed to protect the windlass electrical circuit from overloads and short circuits. It functions as a safety switch, cutting power in the event of an electrical issue to prevent damage to the windlass or the boat's electrical system.

The cockpit control is a remote switch that allows you to operate the windlass’s up and down functions directly from the helm. This increases comfort and safety during anchoring maneuvers, eliminating the need to go forward on the boat.

This comfort kit is specifically designed to operate with a 12 V electrical supply. It must be used with a 12 V boat electrical system to ensure proper operation and prevent any damage.

The Lewmar comfort kit is designed for use with windlasses rated at 700 W. It is optimized for this power rating to ensure adequate performance and protection of the windlass system.

Yes, this is a comfort kit from the Lewmar brand, designed to integrate perfectly with Lewmar windlasses.

Yes, the Lewmar comfort kit is a windlass accessory specifically designed and manufactured for the marine environment. Its components are suited to conditions encountered at sea.

Yes, thanks to the included cockpit control, this kit allows you to operate the windlass’s up/down functions directly from your boat’s helm, providing added convenience and safety.

This comfort kit is compatible with 12 V, 700 W Lewmar windlasses. It is important to verify that your Lewmar windlass matches these voltage and power specifications to ensure optimal compatibility.

No, this comfort kit is specifically designed for Lewmar windlasses. Compatibility is only guaranteed with Lewmar models that meet the specified voltage and power ratings.

No, this kit is specifically designed for Lewmar 12 V, 700 W windlasses. Using it with a windlass of a different power rating, even at 12 V, may cause operational issues or electrical protection faults, including with the provided circuit breaker.

No, this comfort kit is exclusively designed for 12 V electrical systems. It is not compatible with Lewmar windlasses operating at 24 V.

Yes, this kit is designed to be compatible with Lewmar windlasses meeting the 12 V and 700 W specifications. Ensure your windlass precisely matches these technical characteristics.

Installing marine electrical components, such as this comfort kit, requires knowledge of electrical systems and marine mechanics. It is strongly recommended to use a qualified professional to ensure correct and safe installation, compliant with current standards.

The circuit breaker must be installed as close as possible to the windlass power source (battery), on the positive circuit. This strategic position ensures maximum protection against overcurrents and short circuits, thereby protecting the windlass and the boat's electrical system.

The cockpit control is typically wired to the windlass control box or relay. It sends electrical signals to raise or lower the anchor. Wiring must follow the windlass and kit-specific electrical diagrams.

The comfort kit integrates into the existing power circuit of your Lewmar 12 V / 700 W windlass. The provided circuit breaker protects this circuit. It does not require a separate power supply from the windlass itself, but it is crucial that the existing circuit is correctly sized.

The Lewmar comfort kit includes the main components such as the crank, circuit breaker, and cockpit control. The specific cables for electrical connection between the windlass and cockpit control to the boat's system are not listed as included in the kit contents and must be sized and provided separately based on the installation.
