ECO 2000 Winch

The ECO 2000 Winch is designed to support a wide range of instrumentation and sampling applications in estuaries, coastal oceans, and large lakes and reservoirs including CTD and water sample profiling, bottom grab sampling, plankton net towing, etc. The ECO 2000 is compatible with small diameter wire rope or electro-mechanical cables, up to 2,000lbs safe working load.

Its compact and efficient design enables more sophisticated research operations to be performed from small vessels. The ECO winch series provides excellent speed control and real time cable awareness, allowing precise control of underwater sampling equipment and safe deck operations.

The ECO 2000 comes standard with infinitely variable speed control and 100% dynamic braking circuit, allowing precision control under all operational circumstances with zero down time. Optional features further expand the capability of the ECO winch family.  A diamond screw levelwind with hand operated clutch allow precision cable winding while giving the operator the ability to adjust levelwind carriage position. A line speed, payout, and tension display gives the operator complete understanding of cable parameters during operations.  The slipring option allows for real time data observation and logging.  The ECO 2000 provides a flexible platform that allows multiple motor options, depending on line pull and speed requirements.
