Andersen E1 electric winches allow you to hoist and trim sails at the push of a button regardless of physical strength, so any crew member can easily and safely trim sails and control lines. Perfect for enjoying sailing short-handed or with friends and family. In addition to the host of standard features that make Andersen self-tailing winches the benchmark for quality and performance, Andersen E1 electric winches are engineered with unsurpassed levels of functionality, monitoring and protection.
Ease of installation
Contactors and controller are contained within the motor unit, so no separate control box is necessary. Simplified electrical installation requires just the connection of positive and negative power cables to the motor terminals and the connection of the push button using the included output cable. Marine grade circuit breakers are also available for protection and isolation.
Manual operation
Two speed manual operation is always available as a backup.
Efficient, high quality motor
At the heart of the E1 electric winch is a high quality European engineered and manufactured series wound motor. Carefully matched with the optimum gearbox these winches deliver high speed at low load for fast sheeting in, and low speed at high load for safe, fine tuning when trimming. They are available in 12 volt and 24 volt models providing smooth and quiet operation across a wide working load range.
Illuminated “intelligent” push button
E1 winches are supplied with a push button with an integrated LED which illuminates when power to the winch system is on. The push button incorporates a hinged safety cover to prevent inadvertent winch operation and is water resistant rated to IP67. The push button also acts with the controller to flash status codes that assist with troubleshooting in the event of overload or where other system protection intervention occurs. A cable for connection of the push button is included for convenient installation.
