This 6-bladed propeller is suitable as replacement for the BOW125/130/160 bow thrusters separately.
Working in close collaboration with the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN), the world-famous hydrodynamic laboratory, VETUS has optimized the performance of its thrusters. This has been achieved by utilizing a unique propeller blade profile, which creates little or no cavitation. As cavitation produces unwanted noise, this new blade design offers a major reduction in the operating sound levels. Moreover, the application of this new propeller reduces the current consumption by up to 10%.
