Normal Shutdown

The Seakeeper should be shut down when stabilization is no longer required. This maximizes the longevity of the Seakeeper.

  1. Press the Seakeeper On/Off button. The On/Off button will turn grey. The Seakeeper will discontinue stabilization and the flywheel will start coasting.
  1. Once the vessel is secured in the slip, switch the high current and low current DC power to the Seakeeper off. The flywheel will continue to spool down to 0 RPM. This can take16+ hours from full speed. When the flywheel has stopped spinning, 0 RPM will appearon the service screen.

Note: The seawater pump may run for up to 5 minutes after the Seakeeper is switched off and is coasting (with low current DC power applied).

The Seakeeper should be stopped when stabilization is no longer required. Once the vessel is secured in the slip, the high and low current DC power to the Seakeeper should be switched to the Off position. The Seakeeper will continue to spool down to 0 RPM. No cooling is required during this time. Note Seakeeper
will take 16+ hours to coast down to 0 RPMfrom full speed.
