Side-Power AC Thruster Diameter 300mm 230V 400kg Vertical Install

Properties

FLEXIBLE INSTALLATION

Sidepower’s Thrusters are designed to allow installation at any angle on the tunnel and the motor at various rotations on the bracket. The installation flexibility for Sidepower’s thruster systems is created to work with the space you have! not the space you need.

AC ELECTRICAL CURRENT

Powered by alternating current.

FLEXIBLE COUPLING

Flexible coupling between electronic motor and driveshaft protects both the electronic motor and gear systems if the propeller jams or obstructs.

S-LINK

S-Link is a CAN-based control system with full intelligent communication between all units in the system, much like a computer network.

Features:

• Round, compact and waterproof connectors with unique keying and color coding to avoid faulty hookup
• Unlimited number of commands or information transferred on a single cable
• User feedback on the panel
• Intelligent troubleshooting

PRO – VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL

A PRO thruster system with variable speed control allows for more precise handling of the boat in all conditions, applying only the necessary power needed to complete your maneuver confidently.

By limiting the power under normal weather conditions, noise levels are significantly reduced. The system also includes a practical hold-function in a twin thruster system. With a single press of a button, the bow and stern thruster will keep you alongside the docks – making docking truly a one-person job. PRO thrusters are the best choice for joystick interaction.

A PRO system contains three main elements – a control panel, a power control unit, and a DC electric thruster – all tied together with the S-link control system. All mechanical and main electric parts are from the well-proven thruster range produced by Sleipner for many years.

All of Sleipner’s 12 and 24 volt DC electric thrusters can be enabled for variable speed control by authorized Sleipner service personnel, even past models.

GRAVITY FEED LUBRICATION

The thruster gearleg is filled with oil from a remote reservoir located above the waterline. This generates overpressure, making an effective seal against water intrusion in the gear leg.

Features:

• Separate oil reservoir placed above the waterline
• Allows easy access for oil changes
• Having the advantage to be able to change oil in units used commercially, with hundreds of running hours per year

Q-PROP

The new 5 blade special skew propellers are the result of over 2 years of development work and thousands of tests. They have been designed to reduce the noise level, while maintaining the exceptional efficiency of the old 4 blade Sleipner propellers. This goal was achieved, andSidepower even chose to make them a little bit more aggressive on some models, increasing the thrust on some thrusters about 5%. Please see individual information on each new thruster for more details.

Features:

• Noise reductions of up to 75% measured in controlled environments
• The expected and tested normal noise reduction in average installations: 20-40%
• Will be delivered on all Sleipner models except models with 300 mm and 385 mm tunnel diameter
• Upgrade kits are available for most SP series thrusters with special adaptors

TWIN COUNTER-ROTATING PROPELLERS

Two counter-rotating propellers can give the most thrust at a good performance ratio in a minimal tunnel diameter. This system is used in Sidepower’s larger thrusters for maximum power. The TC models are the favourite thrusters among leading boatbuilders for their high-end yachts.
