PS-06 plastic sheave
The PS-06 plastic sheave is a small affordable magnetically encoded sheave option for use with A.G.O.’s EWC-6 wire counter unit. It is based on a commercial Loomis Marine trolling block with magnets and sensors added for wire counting.
It is not a snatch block. It must be almost completely disassembled to install and remove cables that cannot be fed through its throat opening.
Not recommend for use in high-line-speed applications like Sound Velocity Profiling.
