VETUS Hydraulic Bow Thruster 310kgf With 20kw Hydro Motor

This model of hydraulic bow thruster in the VETUS range, featuring
as standard a hydraulic motor.
This hydraulic motor is driven by a hydraulic pump, if a hydraulic
pump and associated tank are already installed on board, then, in
most cases,this assembly can be used for driving the bow thruster
too.

Some marine engine manufacturers, e.g. VETUS DEUTZ, supply as
standard a special PTO (Power Take Off) connection, which greatly
simplifies the installation of the hydraulic pump.
In addition to the pump and the hydraulic storage tank, VETUS can
also supply the required load sensing and control devices, as well
as the high pressure hydraulic hoses, complete with end
fittings.

This hydraulic bow thruster may be fitted to a GRP, steel or
aluminium tunnel or used as a stern thruster using the appropriate
installation kit.

The three most powerful VETUS hydraulic bow thrusters can also be
powered using a specially prepared diesel power pack, instead of a
pump on the main engine.
In this case, the matching hydraulic pump will be supplied as part
of the power pack. Installing a power pack on board can
considerably reduce the required generator set capacity.

by operating hydraulic functions which are normally electrically
powered.
