Description

Lenco Bennett Retrofit Kit – 12V (15064-001)

The Lenco Bennett Retrofit Kit (15064-001) offers a simple, high-performance upgrade for boats equipped with Bennett hydraulic trim tab systems, allowing you to convert them to modern all-electric Lenco actuators without replacing the trim tab planes or drilling new holes. This retrofit kit brings the speed, reliability, and low maintenance of Lenco electric trim tab technology to boats originally outfitted with Bennett hydraulic systems.

Why Switch from Hydraulic to Electric?

Lenco’s all-electric actuators outperform traditional hydraulic systems in every measurable category:

• Instant Response: Electric actuators move the moment you touch the switch. Hydraulic systems suffer from “lag” as the pump builds pressure, making precise leveling difficult in choppy water.

• Maintenance-Free: No more checking fluid levels, bleeding lines, or cleaning up messy hydraulic leaks in your bilge.

• Precision Control: Electric motors stop exactly where you want them. They do not “creep” or lose position over time like hydraulic cylinders can when seals begin to wear.

• Eco-Friendly: By removing the oil-filled pump, you eliminate the risk of hydraulic fluid leaking into the marine environment.

Built for the Harsh Saltwater Environment

• Submersible Reliability: The included 101-BET Actuators are housed in high-impact, UV-resistant glass-filled nylon with double O-ring seals for 100% waterproof performance.

• Simple Wiring: The kit includes specialized wiring adapters that allow you to connect the new actuators to your existing Bennett wiring harness in many configurations.

Technical Specifications

In the Box: 15064-001 Kit

• (2) 101-BET Retrofit Actuators: Specifically designed for Bennett hardware.

• (2) Upper Mounting Brackets: To match existing Bennett patterns.

• (2) Bennett Actuator Adapter Plugs: To simplify the electrical conversion.

• (1) Hardware Pack: All necessary stainless steel screws and gland seals.

• Note: This kit does not include a helm switch. To complete the conversion, you will typically need a Lenco LED or Tactile Switch Kit.

Pro-Tip for the Retrofit:

“The 15064-001 kit allows you to keep your Bennett blades, but it does require a Lenco-compatible switch to operate the new electric motors. If you are doing this upgrade, I highly recommend the Lenco LED Indicator Switch (15170-001). It provides a visual representation of where your tabs are positioned, something most older hydraulic systems lacked.”
