The efficient way to trim and stabilise your boat
While spending precious time at sea we believe you above all want an enjoyable experience – our interceptor trim tabs can create just that. Humphree systems provide unmatched onboard comfort for the world of leisure yachting. Altogether, the system provides features no other system can match in terms of stabilization, performance and reliability over time by comparison. Moreover, the system lowers roll and slamming by up to 50%, and it will feel like even more. Finally, your family boat ride will be a whole new experience for everyone on board.
Above all, our interceptors will significantly make the difference between enjoyment and seasickness; between low and high fuel consumption and between bad and excellent visibility at the helm.
The X-Series is avaliable in five standard sizes and is intended mainly for boats 25-60 feet. Not to mention, they deliver the same reliability and superior performance as all larger Humphree interceptor trim tabs. However, the X-Series features the same control system, ultra-fast servo actuators and control panel. For superior control of dynamic hull motions, in particular they all have an interceptor blade with a powerful 50mm (2”) stroke.
The X300 and X450 are also an excellent choice for high performance RIBs.
For boats with stern drive, a special “13 degree” mounting plate is available for a perfect fit.
Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.
Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness
H-Series characterizes a customizable interceptor and are available from 350 – 1500 mm in width. No matter how the hull of your boat has been designed altogether, there is always a solution for our interceptor trim tabs to fit the hull. And also be fit under your water jet, another perfect fit at the shine or make it follow the radius of the propeller tunnels,
Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.
Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness
This interceptor trim tabs line with an asymmetric placed servo unit, and can be used when it has to fit under a water jet or if preferred area of the transom is limited. It can also be used when the inner structure on the inside of the transom does not allow for a centre placed servo. Lastly, the HA-interceptor can be custom shaped for a perfect fit and further comes in sizes 500 – 1100mm.
Available sizes: HA500 – HA1100 (50mm stroke, asymmetric).
Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.
Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness
The HE-Series interceptors are designed for heavy duty use. With their powerful 75mm stroke length they will add 50% more lift force than the standard 50mm interceptors trim tabs as a result. The HE-interceptor comes in sizes 750 – 1500mm and in addition, can be custom shaped for a perfect fit.
Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.
Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness
Our HL-Series are designed and built for the large and heavy planing vessels. And are therefore equipped with a mechanical high performing structure the HLS-interceptors blade. It has a powerful stroke length of 110mm. The HLS interceptor is available from 800mm to 1500mm width.
Interceptor placement on the boat transom
The HCS-5 system combines exceptional mechanical quality with electronic control including motion sensors and world class brushless servo motors to provide instant and exact response to the hull dynamics.
Adding the fine-tuned boat control options Automatic Trim, Automatic List, Coordinated Turn or Stabilization Control will result in optimum comfort and performance regardless if the captain is a seasoned expert or a less experienced operator.
All the units are connected with watertight cables with the servo motors positioned protected inside the hull. HCS-5 can easily be upgraded with more functions, interceptors trim tabs and fins.
The RCU560 series control units consists of advanced sensors, calculating algorithms and works on 11 – 32 VDC. The control unit handles the system functions and controls the servo motors and powers the system. For instance, in a network with electrical fins – these are separately powered by 24VDC electricity.
Lastly, CP512 is our new and advanced control panel. The panel is very easy to use. It comes with a large colour display which is also sunlight readable and therefore also suitable for outdoor installation, such as the flybridge. The control panel can change between day and night mode, and it has user selectable colour themes. Furthermore, the CP512 has a NMEA2000 connection which makes many installations easier. For service and support the control panel has an integrated Wi-Fi access point that enables remote access via your Internet connected device such as a mobile phone or computer.
