VETUS bow thruster 75 kgf, ignition protected
VETUS ignition protected bow thruster with 75 kgf thrust force, suitable for
boats from 10,5 to 15 metres in length. 12 Volt version.
Installing an electric bow or stern thruster in a petrol (gasoline) engined
boat can be very dangerous, due to the possibility of the electric motor
igniting fuel vapour. In order to eliminate the risk, this special housing will
shield the bow or stern thruster from potentially explosive vapour.
The housing enables the thruster to comply with the ISO 8846 Marine ?ignition
protection? standard. In addition to the standard thruster, the set consists of
a watertight (IP65) housing for the electric motor and relays, together with all
required seals, electrical connectors and fastening components.
An automatic fuse for the control loom is also supplied. This can be reset
externally without opening the housing. For both 12 and 24 volt supply. They can
also be used as stern thrusters, in combination with the appropriate kit.
Because the motor housing is watertight, these sets are also ideal for use where
the bow or stern thruster is installed in a wet or humid space.
