General Installation Considerations and Precautions for Electric Thrusters
• The thruster must NOT be installed in compartments that require ignition proof electric equipment. If necessary, make a separate compartment.
(NB: Ignition Protected systems are tested to be installed in areas with possible explosive gases in accordance with ISO 8846)
• When installing the thruster electro motor in small compartments, ensure the compartment is well ventilated to allow for cooling of the electro
motor.
• If the height of the room you are installing the thruster is limited, the thruster can be installed horizontally or at any angle in-between.
- If the electro motor is positioned more than 30 degrees off vertical, it must be supported separately.
- Beware of keeping installation within advised measurements. No part of the propeller or gear house must be outside the tunnel.
• Do not install the thruster in a position where you need to cut a stiffener/ stringer/ support that may jeopardise the hull integrity without checking
with the boat builder this can be done safely.
• The electro motor, components and cables must be mounted so they remain dry at all times.
• We advise painting the gear house and propellers with anti-fouling.
(NB: Do not paint the anodes, sealing, rubber fi ttings or propeller shafts)
• Do not fi nish the inside of the tunnel with a layer of gel-coat/ topcoat or similar. There is only room for a thin coat of primer and two layers of anti-
fouling between the tunnel and the props.
• Don’t install the electro motor close to easily flammable objects or equipment as it will reach over 100°C before the temperature switch is activated.
• Do not store items close to the thruster motor. Any loose items near the thruster motor is a potential fi re hazard and can cause undesired short-
circuiting.
• Do not lift it by internal cable connections, main terminals.
• The thruster power supply circuit must include the recommended sized fuse and a battery isolation switch.

• Never run the thruster out of water.
• The electro/ hydrulic motor must be handled with care. Do not place down the motor on the drive shaft.
