Water Lubrication System
The Vetus WCAPS kit provides a dedicated water intake for the lubrication of marine stern gear assemblies. Water is supplied through the scoop and connected hose to the propeller shaft installation.
An alternative method of supplying water to a stern gear assembly is to use a connection from the main engine's raw water cooling circuit.
Selection and Installation
Select the correct WCAPS kit according to the propeller shaft diameter:
- WCAPSET: For 25, 30 and 35 mm shafts, G3/8 connection.
- WCAPS1/2: For 40, 45 and 50 mm shafts, G1/2 connection.
Verify the water connection size and compatibility with the existing stern gear assembly before installation.
