Lofrans X2 Vertical Windlass - Dark Version

The Lofrans X2 windlass has a vertical drive shaft for the gypsy, which results in a compact deck unit with the motor and gearbox housed under the deck in the chain locker.

Lofrans X2 Main Features and Plus Factors:

• Stunning dark finish
• Special watertight stainless steel ball bearings in the base
• Low profile or with drum options
• Independently operated rope drum for pulling and tensioning warps
• Manual chain release
• Manual override on chromed bronze models only, not on aluminium models
• Rope and chain combination gypsy on 8mm DIN766/14mm 3strand rope only - spring-loaded finger applies pressure to the rope and chain, which keeps the warp firmly connected to the gypsy
• Factory pre-installed chain counter sensor/magnet
• Lofrans-engineered heavy duty IP67 rated electric motor, 12V / 1000W
• Corrosion-resistant anodised aluminium alloy gearbox casing
• Motor and gearbox connected by a special socket-type coupling for easier access and maintenance
• 3-year Manufacturer Warranty
• Built-in Control Box (Dual Direction Solenoid)
• Design requirement - minimum 300mm depth between the underside of the deck and the top of any stowed chain

The Lofrans X2 dark version is available in several, but not all variations, listed below.

Gypsy Capacity:
8mm chain = 14mm 3-strand rope
10mm gypsy = chain only

The X Range = X1, X2, X3, X3.5, X4 and X5 all feature as standard:

• Watertight stainless steel ball bearings in the base for maintenance-free reliable performance
• Clever Clutch Design manufactured from two conical discs fitted onto the main shaft by two flat parallel planes - avoids the use of keys and spreads the load more evenly
• Factory-fitted sensor in the base together with a magnet in the Gypsy enables an external chain counter option.
• Independently operated drum for warping (with drum only)
• Manual override - the spring-loaded ratchet fitted in the gearbox has two main functions
  1. enables the windlass to recover the chain and anchor in the event of electrical failure
  2. provides a safety mechanism so that chain jams do not damage the deck

E* also = Low profile height dimension
