BOW PRO Boosted carbon brushless bow thruster 65 kgf

Description

BOW PRO BOWB065 bow thruster with infinitely variable power control

BOW PRO bow and stern thrusters are the most advanced technology in their field. The Bow Pro bow thruster features a carbon-brushed, maintenance-free induction motor, giving the bow thruster unlimited running time. The motor is CANbus controlled by the Vetus MCV
motor controller. Variable speed control for increased comfort and safety. The bow propeller also has thermal and low voltage protection.
The BOW PRO bow and stern propellers have the same durable bevel gears and quiet propellers as the standard Vetus BOW bow propellers.

Injection power 12/24V: 65 kgf
Power: 3.1 /4.1 kW/hp.
Turning boat length: 8 - 12,5 m
Tunnel inner diameter Ø: 185 mm
Weight without tunnel: 29 kg
Maximum running time min/hour: unlimited running time of which 10 min at full power (12 V voltage)
Voltage: 12/24 V
Model of main power switch: BATSW250/ BPMAIN24

Upgrading an old bow thruster from an old Vetus and often other brands of bow thruster is quite easy due to the same tunnel diameters.

The unique and reliable BOW PRO
- Precise and infinitely variable power control
- Digitally controlled (patented) by MCV motor controller
- MCV motor controller with integrated boost-12/24 VDC
- Maintenance-free carbon brushless motor
- Built-in thermal and low voltage protection
- Unlimited operating time of 10 min at full power (12 V:
- CANbus protocol so they can be integrated with other similar systems on board
- Highly efficient thrust
- Interchangeable with the old BOW series models due to the most common tunnel sizes

- The BOWB models are 24 V but can be installed on a boat with 12 V voltage.The PRO model has a built-in alternator/inverter that doubles the supply voltage. The unit requires its own 24 V battery but also charges the battery from the boat's 12 V system. The built-in alternator has three charge cycles so it helps to keep the batteries at an optimum level.

Two controller models are available for the BOW PRO models. Both are fully infinitely variable. The BPPPA model has only two-way control and an on/off switch. The BPPJE model also has a lock function that allows the bow thruster to be locked at the desired power level, for example when moored against the dock.

In addition to the BOW PRO bow thruster, accessories and parts are available separately: suitable tunnel, wiring harness, controller, fuse and main circuit breaker, fuse box, battery cables and connectors, and batteries.
