windlasses come with a laps sensor suitable for use with chain counter CHC 1102 M.
Other windlasses
In order for the chain counter to measure the length of the chain lowered, it has to count the number of
revolutions completed by the gear that drives the chain (gypsy).
A laps sensor kit is supplied with the chain counter. This kit includes a cylindrical magnet, a magnetic field
sensor and two plastic adaptors to be used to fix the sensor. The magnet is to be fixed to the gypsy while
the magnetic sensor is to be fixed to the windlass base.
The standard installation procedure is described below. Unfortunately we cannot describe a procedure ap-
plicable to all types of windlass. Adapt this procedure to satisfy your own individual requirements.
