Bow Thruster BTQ 140-40 40KGF - 12V - D140 - 2.2kW

Better Performances, Lower Absorption

The 4-blade Propellers guarantee maximum thrust performance and reduction in current absorption. They are made of composite materials, resistant in every condition. The counter-rotating system offers better thrust performances. The two props have been designed to suit left side and right side, to guarantee the same upper performances in both directions.

Features:

• The Gearbox is created so that the behavior of the propeller is unaffected in either direction.
• The bronze propeller gearleg is provided with a hydrodynamic profile that minimizes turbulence.
• Maintenance is not required since the special highly resistant components guarantee a perfect lubrication seal for life.
• The anodic aluminum protection is easily replaceable. In case of total corrosion of the anode, the prop doesn’t get lost because it’s fixed directly to the pod, independently from the anode.
• The elastic joint that optimizes the alignment between motor and gearbox is an exclusive Quick design. This acts as an even tension device, preserving the operating system from impulses from the bow thruster, with above-average results.

The Motors

New-generation materials have been chosen to constantly guarantee required output and maximum performance, given the severe conditions required by the application.

Top Safety

In case of relays’ melting, the TMS remote circuit breaker system switch-off the power to the motor from any place where a TDC panels or a TSC emergency mushroom panels are installed. Motor temperature sensor BTQ motors don’t need the thermic sensor to be able to always provide the maximum power when needed. The overheating protection is controlled by the software inside the touch panel or the joystick panel.

Vetus Bow Thruster Ignition Protected - 95 kgf, 12v, D185mm Tunnel [BOW9512DI]

The Ignition-protected Bow Thruster 95 kgf 12 V 185 mm Tunnel offers unparalleled safety for compartments where gasoline/petrol engines, fuel tanks, or propane gas systems are present. This thruster is suitable for boats between 12 and 17 m in length.

The Ignition-protected Bow Thruster 95 kgf 12 V 185 mm Tunnel electric thruster comes with all the necessary seals, electrical connectors, and fastening components for easy and secure installation. A unique feature is the built-in automatic fuse for the control loom, which can be reset externally—this not only reduces the need for maintenance but also ensures that users can quickly restore function without opening the housing, maintaining the integrity of the ignition-protected system.

Designed to comply with the stringent ISO 8846 Marine 'Ignition Protection' standard, this thruster is built with a fully enclosed, watertight housing that prevents explosive fumes from coming into contact with the internal components of the thruster. This robust design ensures that any risk of fire due to fuel or gas vapors is significantly minimized, making these thrusters ideal for use in confined spaces or areas containing flammable materials.

The versatility of the thruster extends beyond bow applications, as it can be used as a stern thruster when paired with the appropriate kit, providing comprehensive propulsion solutions. With its high level of safety, ease of installation, and operational reliability, this thruster series is an essential addition to boats that require safe, powerful, and adaptable maneuvering capabilities in challenging environments.
