Solenoid Switch
The engine of the anchor windlass should be set in operation
by means of a solenoid switch, the contact ratings of which are
suited for the engine supply.
If only 1 rotating direction of the electric motor is desired
(only for the 'hauling in' of the chain by means of the electric
motor), it is sufficient to use a solenoid switch with 1 normally
open contact.
If 2 rotating directions of the electric motor are desired (both
for the hauling in of the chain and the letting go of the chain
by means of the electric motor), one must apply two solenoid
switches with each 1 normally open contact.
Connect the engine and the relay as indicated in one of the
schemes on page 26.
Position the solenoid switch preferably as close as possible to
the anchor windlass.
Never mount the solenoid switch in the chain locker.
The two motor relays must never be switched on at the same
time. There is a danger of this occurring when two sepa-
rate switches are used for hauling in and letting go. If that
is the case, 2 extra relays should be installed. See drawing.
