Product catalog summary
Overview: Humphree AB offers advanced trim and stabilization systems for yachts, focusing on electric fin stabilizers that provide all-speed stabilization for yachts ranging from 45ft to 164ft. The system is designed for efficiency, reduced noise, and minimal maintenance.
Specifications: The stabilizers operate on a 24V DC system, eliminating the need for a running genset engine. They feature a soft start and stop function, reducing noise and wear. The fins are available in four sizes: 0.45m², 0.6m², 0.8m², and 1.0m², and can be installed in twin or quad configurations.
Features and Benefits: The system offers zero emission mode, 360° fin rotation, and a unique 'Bow anchor mode' to prevent anchor walking. Installation is simplified with no need for hydraulic systems, and the fins are designed to be replaceable underwater. The system provides instant start and uses conductive cooling.
Installation and Maintenance: The system requires minimal maintenance and features a smart installation process with plug-and-play connectors. The servo actuators are compact and lightweight, reducing space requirements and installation complexity.
Performance: The fins provide active stabilization at zero speed and underway, with integrated interceptors for enhanced performance. The system supports auto trim and list control, coordinated turn control, and active stabilization for roll and pitch.
Technical Data: The servo unit SU553 features a brushless servo motor, with a power supply of 24-32V DC and a maximum peak power consumption of 5kW. The fins are made from carbon and GRP, with specific dimensions and weights for each size.
Consumption: Power consumption varies by fin size, with typical average consumption during moderate waves ranging from 20 A RMS to 42 A RMS at zero speed. During navigation, consumption is less than 10 A RMS for all sizes.
Integration: The system can be fully integrated with Humphree interceptors, providing a complete solution for auto trim, list control, and optimized coordinated turns, enhancing fuel efficiency and performance.

features and benefits Zero emission mode, stabilise without a running engine The unique ability to rotate the fins 360°, have many benefits. Our “Bow anchor mode” means that the fins rotate 180° when anchored at the bow. Instead of “swimming” against the anchor creating so called anchor walk, our fins will swim away from the anchor keeping the anchor line tensioned. This means a much more stable platform when at anchor resulting in minimal sway, greater comfort and safety. A smart, safe and easy installation A smart solution using 24V DC power means that no large and heavy AC power box has to...

solid, cutable upper edge The new Humphree fin design has an optimised hydrodynamic profile for low drag. The upper edge is made solid, another unique Humphree innovation. The common need to cut the fin to avoid touching the hull is now very easy as no lamination is required. Simply cut the thin solid part of the fin to required shape and it is ready to be installed. It is further possible to reach a better tolerance of the modification compared to the traditional cutting/fiberglass work. For large yachts, our QUAD function makes it just as easy to install FOUR fin stabilisers on one yacht. All...
