A motor twice as efficient results in half
the energy consumption
(in comparison to conventional 12V motors)
Advanced electronic board
It fully controls the Brushless motor,
regulating the current to the motor based on
the required torque and ensuring current
commutation inside the motor to control its
speed. It also stops the motor when the
tension limit is reached.
1250W Brushless Outrunner Motor
The efficiency of Brushless motors is
significantly higher than that of 12V brushed
motors traditionally used in electric winches.
Furthermore, the absence of brushes
minimizes mechanical wear, significantly
extending the motor's lifespan.
Gearbox and angular reducer
The combination of a gearbox and an angular
reducer exceeds in efficiency conventional
worm gear systems.
Resulting energy efficiency : 65%
This represents an energy efficiency twice as
high as that of traditional 12V motors, which
have an efficiency of only 35%. Consequently,
it is 50% of energy saved and available for
other uses onboard.

Motor powered by a 30V DC lithium
battery
For optimal performance, the 12V DC
supplied by the service batteries is not
sufficient. That's why the SailForce™ electric
winch is powered by its own 30V DC lithium
battery that charges on the 12 or 24V DC,
with a capacity of 144Wh, which is more than
enough to power one or two electric winches.
The SailForce™ battery is included with the motor. It serves as a buffer battery, acting as an energy reservoir.
When the electric winch is in use, it provides the winch with a powerful 30V current, with an intensity of up
to 45A. When the winch is not in use, the lithium battery gradually recharges from the service batteries until
it reaches its full charge, after which it no longer consumes energy from the service batteries.
It can be installed wherever you like in the cabin, up to a distance of 8 meters from the electric winch. All
necessary cables are provided.
Preserves the service battery
The service batteries are typically designed for onboard
equipment such as lighting or refrigeration, which rarely
consume more than 6 amps. Therefore, these batteries
are not suitable for the significant discharges required by
an electric winch. The SailForce battery never consumes
more than 6 amps, a consumption rate that may be
comparable to that of the onboard refrigerator for a few
minutes
No need for additional service
battery
Wear on the service batteries caused by
traditional 12V electric winches with brushed
motors.
These motors are directly connected to the
boat's service batteries, without an
intermediate buffer battery.
They draw very high-intensity currents, reaching up to 200 or even 300 amps in some cases. In
addition to wasting energy onboard, these high currents have a significant impact on the longevity
of the service batteries.
