MAXWELL AA560 AutoAnchor Control Unit – Black – P102944

The MAXWELL AA560 AutoAnchor is an advanced automatic anchor control system designed to deliver accurate anchor rode measurement, controlled deployment, and simplified retrieval. Engineered for use with Maxwell electric windlasses, the AA560 enhances anchoring safety and precision by continuously monitoring rode movement and providing real-time depth information.

• Automatic anchor rode measurement with high accuracy
• One-touch anchor deployment and retrieval functionality
• Integrated alarms for anchor drag, docking distance, and chain limits
• High-visibility backlit display for clear viewing in all conditions
• Designed for seamless integration with Maxwell windlass systems

The AA560 allows operators to deploy or retrieve the anchor to a pre-set depth with confidence, reducing guesswork and improving consistency. Audible and visual alarms provide alerts for anchor drag, excessive chain payout, or preset limits, helping protect both vessel and ground tackle.

Housed in a durable black enclosure, the AA560 is suitable for marine environments and can be installed at the helm or other convenient control locations. When paired with compatible sensors and windlass controls, it delivers precise anchor management for cruising and commercial applications.
