The latest offerings in the BOW PRO 48 VCD series of battery-powered thrusters from VETUS – the BOWB285, BOWB300 and BOWB320 – are designed for tunnels measuring 300 mm (11.8 in) in diameter. The series offers thrust outputs of 285 kgf, 300 kgf, and 320 kgf, respectively, and is designed for vessels ranging from 20 to 30 meters (60 to 100 feet).
Features:
- Proportional control for varied power output and more precise control
- Efficient, sealed, brushless induction motors for maximum runtime on a charged battery bank
- Runtime of 10 minutes or more at full power, ultimately limited by battery capacity and recharge rate
- Battery powered at 48 VDC
- Digital control via a VETUS V-CAN CAN bus motor controller
- Resistant to damage from misuse and overuse with heat-sensing and self-regulating electronics
- Simple and intuitive operation with a small self-learning curve on adjusting the thrust
Control panel with a lock-and-hold function to make single-handed docking much easier
