General Installation Considerations and Precautions for SX Thrusters
• The external thruster assembly and controller unit are ignition protected and can be installed in areas with the chance of explosive gases in
accordance to ISO 8846 and ABYC c1500. (Certifi cation pending)
• Ensure that the external thruster assembly does not disturb the water flow under the hull. At higher speeds, if the thruster is installed to
low it can cause damage to the thruster and/ or add additional drag and unwanted water splashing.
• The recommended minimum tunnel depth from the water surface is 140mm (5,51‘) to the centre of tunnel diameter. Place the Thruster as deep as
possible for better performance and reduced noise.
• When installing the thruster ensure it does not foul existing equipment inside the boat like motor bedding etc.
• If able ensure that stern-drives/ trim-tabs do not interfere with the water flow from the thruster as this can reduce the thrust effectiveness
considerably. We recommend the use of our Sleipner cowls to enhance the performance and allow installation in shallow draft boats. Sleipner
cowls will also minimise the effect if stern-drives/ trim-tabs obstruct the thruster.
• Ensure there is enough space both inside and outside the transom of the boat and the thruster does not get in conflict with existing equipment
inside the boat like steerage links etc.
(NB: It is possible to mount the tunnel offset from the boat’s centre line if necessary.)
• Heat protection cut off is calculated from the thruster motor. To avoid cable overheating do not install place the volt cables from the thruster to the
control box near any heat sources.

General User Considerations and Precautions for IP Systems
NEVER Disassemble any part of the Ignition Protected assembly. Tampering with the Ignition Protected assembly will cause it to lose this
safety feature. If there is a problem with your Ignition Protected motor, please contact your dealer.
