Bow Installation Considerations and Precautions

EN

•  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)

•  The electro motor will generate some carbon dust so any storage compartments must be separated from the thruster to prevent nearby items  

  becoming dusty/ dirty. 

(NB: IP version motors generate dust but are enclosed.)

•  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.
