BPS Marine BPS-1 Ultrasonic Antifouling System – 1 Transducer, 12V DC
The BPS Marine BPS-1 is a single-transducer ultrasonic antifouling system for hulls up to 20 ft in length. It can also be used to provide antifouling protection for drives, rudders, stabilizers and other underwater components, and may be combined with additional systems for larger vessels.
The system operates by transmitting high-frequency ultrasonic waves through the hull and connected structures. A multi-frequency sweep algorithm continuously operates between 20 kHz and 42 kHz to help prevent biofouling from attaching to protected surfaces.

Installation
The ultrasonic transducer is installed directly on top of the hull surface using the supplied epoxy, so no thru-hull fitting is required. The transducer includes 15 ft of connected signal cable for routing to the BPS-1 controller.
The controller operates from the boat's existing house battery and uses a simple two-wire connection to the battery bank or distribution panel.
