Lofrans Falkon Horizontal Electric Windlass - With Drum

The Lofrans Falkon is a heavy-duty horizontal electric anchor windlass for larger marine anchoring systems. This range includes 1700W and 2000W models for 12V or 24V DC installations, with gypsy options for 10mm, 12mm, 13mm, 3/8in, 7/16in and 1/2in chain, depending on the selected MPN.

The Falkon is installed on deck and uses horizontal rotation in relation to the deck surface. It is recommended for boats with chain lockers where vertical space or locker volume is limited. The electric motor and gearbox sit above deck under a protective cover, keeping the main drive components accessible for inspection and maintenance.

The body is manufactured from anodised marine aluminium. Current Lofrans data lists independent gypsy and drum operation, manual chain release, manual override, heavy-duty electric motor and an IP67 motor cover.

A minimum clearance of 300mm is recommended between the top of the stacked chain and the underside of the deck. This allows the chain to fall cleanly into the locker and helps maintain correct windlass performance.
