Wireless remote control
In control of your electrically driven equipment on board
The WRC remote control system is designed to work with electrically controlled “on-off” devices and not proportionally controlled
devices, so is ideal for use with solenoid actuated thusters and windlasses, including the BOW range of DC thrusters, Extended
Runtime thrusters, Ignition Protected thrusters, DC electric windlasses and non-proportional hydraulic thrusters. As with all VETUS
Maxwell products, engineering development of this remote control system is ongoing, so please check with your VETUS Maxwell
dealer or query our website if you need remote control for a proportionally controlled device such as a BOWPRO or RimDrive.
