Description
The BOW55HMD Hydraulic Bow Thruster 55 kgf 150 mm Tunnel offers versatility of applications for both bow and stern. The thruster integrates seamlessly into tunnels made of GRP, steel or aluminum. Its advanced engineering provides virtually unlimited running time, delivering consistent and reliable performance for various maritime operations. Perfect for diverse vessel sizes, the BOW55HMD is the ideal choice for superior thrusting power and durability.
The hydraulic thrusters provide reliable, continuous operation, delivering solid power and dependability without needing electrical connections at the thruster or pumps. Designed for minimal maintenance, these thrusters feature advanced proportional control options, ensuring precise and effortless maneuvering.
For those with existing hydraulic systems capable of providing the necessary flow and working pressure, integrating hydraulic thrusters is often a straightforward process. Comprehensive hydraulic systems are also available, providing a complete solution tailored to your vessel’s specific needs.
For even greater flexibility, our powerful hydraulic bow thrusters can also be powered by a specially prepared diesel power pack instead of a pump on the main engine. This configuration includes the matching hydraulic pump as part of the power pack. Installing a power pack onboard can significantly reduce the required generator set capacity by operating hydraulic functions typically powered electrically.
Upgrading to hydraulic thrusters is effortless, thanks to their compatibility with a wide range of existing systems and tunnel sizes. This ensures a smooth transition, enhancing your vessel’s performance and reliability with ease.
