Cyclops Marine smartlink² EE 5t – Wireless Load Sensor

The Cyclops Marine smartlink² EE 5t is a cutting-edge wireless load sensor, purpose-built for sportsboats, keelboats, and mid-sized race yachts. Designed to handle working loads up to 5 tonnes, it combines ±1% load accuracy with an ultra-lightweight titanium construction to deliver unmatched performance and reliability. Developed in collaboration with top race teams, the smartlink² EE 5t enables sailors to optimise rigging tension, improve sail trim, and ensure structural safety.

Key Features & Benefits

✅ High-Load Precision – Measures loads with ±1% accuracy of the working load limit (WLL), providing precise data for performance tuning and safety management.

✅ Durable & Lightweight – Constructed from Ti6Al4V titanium, the sensor weighs just 390g, ensuring minimal impact on overall rigging weight while delivering exceptional strength.

✅ Seamless Wireless Integration – Easily connects via Bluetooth to the Cyclops Marine app or integrates with marine electronics using the smartfittings gateway for live data streaming and logging.

✅ Pin-to-Pin Rigging Compatibility – Designed for pin-to-pin or eye-to-eye setups, working seamlessly with standard shackles to maintain accurate and safe load distribution.

✅ Marine-Grade Durability – Built to withstand the harshest conditions with an IP68-rated waterproof housing, ensuring long-lasting performance in saltwater environments.

✅ Extended Battery Life – Operates for up to 8,000 hours in extended use mode and 2 years in powered-off mode, offering reliability for long-term sailing campaigns.

✅ Wireless Charging – Simplifies power management with a wireless charging system and clear LED indicators for charge status.

How the smartlink² EE 5t Fits into Your Sailing Setup

The smartlink² EE 5t is ideal for performance keelboats and race yachts, making it perfect for applications such as:

✔ Backstays and forestays – Monitor and maintain precise rigging tension for optimal sail performance.

✔ Halyards and control lines – Prevent overloading while improving trimming efficiency.

✔ Vangs and runners – Enhance sail shape control with live load monitoring.

Safety and Reliability

• Overload Protection: Always ensure loads remain within the 150% WLL limit, as exceeding this may cause permanent sensor damage and void the warranty.
• Calibration: Reset as needed after extended use or impact to maintain peak accuracy.
