QS Seamaster Tunnel Thruster QS 80KGF 12V/185T - Powerful and Efficient Thruster for Medium-sized Vessels

The QS Seamaster Tunnel Thruster QS 80KGF 12V/185T is a reliable and robust thruster designedfor medium-sized vessels, such as yachts, pleasure craft and commercial vessels. With a traction force of 80 KGF and a 12V electric drive system, this thruster offers excellent manoeuvrability and precision in both confined spaces and narrow waterways. The tunnel design protects the thruster from damage by underwater obstructions and extends the life of the system, while the low-maintenance electrical system ensures lower operating costs.

This bow thruster is ideal for vessels that frequently manoeuvre, such as mooring, docking and navigating through busy harbours or narrow channels. The 24V version offers powerful and reliable operation with efficient energy intake.

Key Features:

• 80 KGF tractive force: The 80 KGF tractive force provides sufficient power for precise manoeuvres, ideal for medium-sized vessels that need to manoeuvre in confined spaces, such as while mooring, docking and navigating through busy or narrow waterways.
• 12V Electric Drive System: The 12V electric drive system ensures reliable performance, is low-maintenance and offers energy-efficient operation, making it ideal for vessels with 12V on-board systems. It reduces operating costs and fuel consumption, compared to traditional hydraulic systems.
• Tunnel design: The tunnel design provides additional protection for the propeller from underwater obstacles such as rocks, wreckage or other underwater objects. This increases system reliability and protects the thruster from damage.
• Corrosion-resistant Materials: The thruster is made of corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel, which makes the thruster resistant to the damaging effects of saltwater and other marine environments, thus extending the life of the system.
• Quiet Operation: The electric propulsion system ensures quiet operation, which increases comfort on board, especially during longer manoeuvres or when the vessel is in quiet waters.

Advantages:

• Enhanced Manoeuvrability: The 80 KGF tractive force provides precision and power needed for manoeuvring the vessel in confined spaces. This makes the bow thruster ideal for mooring, docking and navigating through narrow waterways and busy harbours.
• Energy efficiency: The 12V electric system makes the bow thruster energy-efficient and low-maintenance, reducing operating costs. This makes it suitable for vessels that rely on a 12V electrical system.
• Reliability and Durability: The tunnel design provides protection against underwater obstructions, which increases the thruster's reliability. This is especially useful for vessels that frequently operate in shallow or rocky waters.
• Corrosion resistance: The corrosion-resistant materials make the thruster ideal for vessels that frequently operate in saltwater environments, extending the life of the thruster and ensuring reliability.
• Silent Operation: The electric drive system ensures silent operation, increasing comfort and quietness on board, especially during prolonged manoeuvres or in calm waters.

Application:

The QS Seamaster Tunnel Thruster QS 80KGF 12V/185T is designed for medium-sized vessels that frequently manoeuvre in confined spaces. It is suitable for yachts, pleasure craft, commercial vessels and offshore vessels that need a reliable bow thruster for narrow waterways, busy ports or mooring.

The 12V electric drive system makes the thruster particularly suitable for vessels already operating with a 12V on-board system, while the tunnel design provides additional protection against damage from underwater obstructions. The silent operation of the system ensures comfort during long manoeuvres or in quiet environments, such as on open water or when mooring.

Choose the QS Seamaster QS 80KGF 12V/185T for reliable performance, energy efficiency and long service life. This thruster offers precision and power for vessels manoeuvring in demanding marine environments, while the low-maintenance system and corrosion-resistant materials ensure low operating costs and long-term reliability.
