[Furler and Winches]

PPI - 1,5kW and 2kW

Power pack size 1 is a small, extremely compact hydraulic unit with an impact resistant plastic reservoir. It weighs only 14 kg (30 lbs), requires very little space and can be mounted upright or on its side. It is thus ideal for installation inside the engine compartment and for use on smaller boats. The unit is suitable for controlling roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls and a wide variety of ramps, doors and platforms. Note however that this unit is not suitable for powering winches. In this case please select a more powerful unit from the Reckmann range (e.g. Power pack size 2). A maximum of 2 applications can be powered and with the exception of the combined function for furling mast and foot outhaul only one application can be controlled at any given time. Options available include an electrical control box and a push button switch. The transparent oil reservoir makes it easy to check the oil level visually. The unit comes supplied with 3 litres or 5 litres of hydraulic fluid respectively. The suction line of the pump incorporates a filtering system, which protects valves and motors from contamination.

PP II

Power pack size 1 is a small, extremely compact hydraulic unit with an anodised aluminium reservoir. By using anodised aluminium throughout we have achieved maximum corrosion resistance and a weight of only 37 kg (82 lbs) with two functions. The unit is suitable for controlling roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls and many different kinds of ramps, doors and platforms. Note however that this unit is not suitable for powering winches. In this case please select a more powerful unit from the Reckmann range (e.g. Power pack size 2). A maximum of 2 applications can be powered and with the exception of the combined function for furling mast and foot outhaul only one application can be controlled at any given time. Push button switches are optionally available. The oil level in the reservoir can be checked easily and at any time using a dipstick. The unit is supplied with 6 litres of hydraulic fluid. The suction line of the pump incorporates a filtering system, which protects valves and motors from contamination.

PP IV

Power pack size 4 is equipped with 2 DC twin pump units and is therefore the most powerful unit within the Reckmann range. This unit’s large reserve power capacity makes it possible to maintain sufficient system pressure with reduced oil flow should one of the pumps fail completely. By using anodised aluminium throughout we have achieved maximum corrosion resistance and a weight of only 79 kg (174 lbs.) with up to ten functions. The unit is suitable for controlling applications from any manufacturer, e.g. roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls, hydraulic winches, windlasses and the widest variety of ramps, doors and platforms. If your desired application isn't listed, please ask us. We will be happy to advise you. 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 use 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 potential overheating of the 3 kW electric motor during overload conditions. The unit is equipped with an oil sight glass for visual inspection of the fluid level, 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. Vibration dampers on all four support points guarantee smooth and quiet operation.
