Constellation™ Wire-in-Conduit Systems
Due to their ease of installation, wire-in-conduit systems have largely replaced open wire for centre cockpit yachts. Advances
in conduit technology have resulted in Constellation™ systems that are simple to install and easy to maintain. Self-contained
sheave assemblies have been developed to fi t into the conduit route, eliminating the requirement for reinforced pads.
Lewmar offer a range of components to complete your wire-in-conduit installation, including conduit end fi ttings, conduit
greasers and terminal units to align the cables with the quadrants. Most common conduit installation for centre cockpit yachts
up to 12m/40ft.
▪ Simple to install
▪ Ultimate reliability
▪ Pedestal or bulkhead mounting for wheels
▪ Heavy duty double armoured conduit with
low-friction liner to ensure efficiency
▪ In-line conduit greasers
To achieve the maximum sensitivity and longevity
from a conduit system please follow the following
guidlines:
▪ Keep the number of bends to a minimum.
▪ Do not exceed 270° of total curves.
▪ Avoid ‘S’ bends.
▪ Orientate the quadrant to achieve the best
conduit lead.
▪ Minimum bend radius 200mm/8".
