Owner Services » Upgrade your Furlex
Push-button performance is an easy upgrade for anyone who already has a manual Furlex 200S or 300S series on their yacht.
The furling line, drum and line guard assembly are simply replaced with a Furlex Electric motor unit. No sail conversion is required as the luff length of your existing sail is unaffected.
Furlex Electric is designed around a highly efficient 12V or 24V electric motor. Power is transmitted to a self-locking worm gear to rotate the luff extrusion at a max torque of 60Nm (200E), 90Nm (300E) and 135Nm (400E) respectively. These high torque levels mean that you can always rely on being able to furl your foresail – even when the wind and sea are doing their worst.
The motor uses only 30 amps at normal load and it takes 25-30 seconds to furl a genoa. Once the required sail area is set, the worm drive provides a mechanical lock. In order to prevent accidental overloading, the system comes with a built-in circuit breaker.
This safety feature is automatically re-set a few seconds after the control switch is released. In the event of power failure, the sail is simple to reef manually.
An emergency line-driver system is included as standard and can be used for both on-deck and throughdeck installations.
Furlex Electric is available for either on-deck or throughdeck installations.
