Bennett AutoTrim Pro for Hydraulic Trim Tabs - AP000A1HA

Bennett AutoTrim Pro for Hydraulic Trim Tabs (AP000A1HA)

Master your boat’s attitude with the Bennett AutoTrim Pro (AP000A1HA). This sophisticated, all-in-one control system is designed specifically for Hydraulic Trim Tab systems (such as Bennett Classic or Euro-Style systems). It serves as an autopilot for your trim tabs, automatically adjusting them to maintain the perfect running angle regardless of shifting passengers, varying speeds, or changing sea conditions.

Smart Technology for a Smoother Ride

The AutoTrim Pro system utilizes an internal gyro sensor and accelerometer to monitor your vessel's pitch and roll. It eliminates the constant need for manual corrections, allowing the captain to focus on navigation while the system ensures the boat stays level and efficient.

Key Features:

• Auto Trim Control: Automatically corrects for listing (side-to-side) and adjusts pitch (bow up/down) to keep the boat at its most efficient cruising angle.

• Manual Override: You can take manual control at any time by pressing any button on the keypad; the system stays in manual mode until you re-engage "Auto."

• LED Position Indication: Features built-in LED indicators that show exactly where your tabs are deployed, eliminating the need for separate gauges.

• Two "Favorite" Memory Buttons: Save your preferred running angles for different scenarios—one for a fuel-efficient cruise and another for cutting through heavy chop.

• Automatic Tab Retraction: Protects your tabs by automatically retracting them to the full "up" position whenever the ignition is turned off.

• Enhanced Hole Shot: Helps the boat get on plane faster by automatically deploying the tabs during acceleration and retracting them as the boat levels out.

Technical Specifications:

• Model Number: AP000A1HA

• Compatibility: Hydraulic Systems ONLY (Standard Bennett Hydraulic Power Units)

• System Voltage: 12V DC

• Components: Control Helm Display, Control Unit (Processor), and Plug-and-Play Wiring.

• Housing: Marine-grade, UV-stable composite with a waterproof keypad.

Why Choose the Hydraulic Version (A1HA)?

The AP000A1HA includes the necessary interface to communicate with a hydraulic power unit (HPU). It transforms a traditional manual hydraulic system into a smart, automated performance package. This is a highly recommended upgrade for offshore fishing boats and cruisers where weight shifts (like moving ice, fuel, or people) frequently impact the ride.

Installation Note:

The AutoTrim Pro for Hydraulic systems requires a connection to your boat's existing Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU). The kit comes with a comprehensive wiring harness to bridge the helm display and the processor. For the sensors to calibrate correctly, the control unit must be mounted on a vertical bulkhead and oriented according to the manual.
