Quick WCS830 Windlass Control Switch
The Quick WCS830 Windlass Control Switch (Part Number: FPWCS8300000) is a specialized panel-mount rocker switch designed to provide convenient remote operation of a boat's windlass. It is specifically marketed for installation in areas like the rudder or helm for "up/down" anchor control.
Key Specifications & Features
- Operation: Standard Up/Down toggle functionality for motor control.
- Protection: Features an IP67 front seal, making it highly resistant to dust and water ingress in marine environments.
- Power: Operates on a 12V DC power source.
- Design: Black thermoplastic panel-mount housing with a user-friendly rocker interface.
- Compatibility: Designed as a "Control Board" for Quick windlass systems, enabling operation from various stations on the vessel.
Installation Note
This switch is often used as a secondary control point (e.g., at the helm) to supplement existing foot switches. For proper installation, you will typically need to wire it to the windlass solenoid/relay system. If you are looking for a wireless alternative, similar "Quick" branded remotes are available, though the WCS830 is a wired, permanent mount solution.
