FISHING_SURFACE LONG LINE SETTER

The surface long Line Setter Model WSLS is designed specifically to assist in setting the depth of the line in a mid-water Tuna & Swordfish long line operation.  Its advanced wedging sheave design facilitates utterly reliable hauling performance without the need for consumable rubber drive elements.

The line setter incorporates the following features:

• Direct drive by marine duty radial piston hydraulic motor. The motor’s drive shaft features a replaceable stainless steel “sleeve type” seal surface.
• The line is gripped by the wedging action of the smooth stainless steel sheaves. This design facilitates excellent grip without any of the slipping commonly associated with rubber sheaved machines. It also means that no consumable rubber drive elements are required and that no black stripes are ever burnt onto the line.
• The setters line speed regulation system is built into a solid manifold block that is directly flanged to the hydraulic motor. This integrated system provides exceptionally stable performance together with automatic coordinated control of the reel when shooting away. The system has several adjustments allowing fine-tuning of the coordinated reel/line setter operation.
• The line setter’s speed of operation can be displayed on an optional digital readout. This display enables the speed of shooting away to be determined to within 0.1 of a knot, allowing the gear to be set to a predetermined depth.
• The line setter itself is constructed from marine grade 5083 aluminium, a Lloyds approved hull material. The wedging sheaves are stainless steel.
