Can ng Keel Manager Dedicated for monohulls equipped with a can ng keel operated by hydraulic/electric power drive • • • • • • • • Security-controlled keel handling Manual, semi-automa c or automa c keel control Full monitoring of the system and opera ons Automa c management of tacking sequence Securing the vessel in case of capsizing or loss of keel (op onal) Integrates op mal target keel angle (op onal), Records the history of manoeuvres and events, provides an opera ng report Integrates energy saving modes User friendly CKM integrates the target keel angle based on the heel angle, wind angle and speed. The automa c tacking sequence is fully user-configurable. This can vary according to wind angle (tack or gybe) and wind strength. Energy saving mode reduces power consump on and favours the use of gravity. CKM can deal with up to 3 pumps allowing smooth keel mo on start and stop, several travel speeds and redundancy. The CKM ControlCenter so)ware offers enhanced func ons : • Full monitoring of the system, • Recording and viewing of historic data concerning the control of the keel, • System opera ons reports, • Managing target keel posi on, From the remote control panels, the user can run the keel movements. • move up to port or starboard, • move down using gravity, • stop the movement, • run the tacking sequence. The keel movement is stopped automa cally or manually by the user. The figures on the main unit and the control panels indicate the ongoing process. The current and target keel angles and heel are shown on the control panel’s display. An op onal wireless remote control is also ava

CKM main unit : • 4 keys for direct manual control of the hydraulic components, • 1 function key • 1 ON/OFF key • 13 LED indicators for hydraulic devices processes and operating status. Improving safety For the boat and the crew: if the boat goes over on its side, the keel automatically goes back into position to increase the righting moment. If the boat is upside down, the keel automatically goes to the opposite side of where the waves are coming from. The keel anomaly sensing function means it is possible to secure the boat (if connected to the UpSideUp system) and to raise an alarm. For...
