2.1.4 Reed swITCh seNsORs
Some windlasses are supplied pre-fitted with a reed switch sensor. Reed switch sensors
must have a 10mm x 8mm magnet (#9061) and the gap between the reed switch sensor
and the magnet must be a minimum of 3mm and a maximum of 5mm. This sensor will
require a field connector.
The AutoAnchor will operate with a reed switch sensor for all-chain rode. If using rope/
chain rode the reed switch sensor provides a reasonably accurate count of rode deployed
but on retrieval the display may be incorrect because it cannot allow for the stretch in the
rope.
For an accurate rope and chain count, the reed switch sensor should be replaced with the
AA grey sensor (#9067).

Magnet size: Standard size is 10mm x 8mmm (#9061). This may be replaced with the
smaller 6mm x 4mm (#9009) magnet if required for your windlass.
Magnet Fit: Drill a hole 10.3mm (13/32") diameter and 9.5mm (3/8") deep to fit the magnet
in the underside of a spoke in the bottom of the chainwheel. Cover the magnet with a
minimum of 1 mm epoxy. The magnet must be aligned with the sensor. See Fig 1 & 1a.
sensor Position: The AA black sensor and the reed switch sensor must be fitted direclty
in line with the magnet in the chainwheel. See Fig 1 above. The AA grey sensor may be
fitted up to 20mm out of alignment. See Fig 1a above. The gap between the sensor and
magnet must be as per the table below.
