Vetus BOW160HMD Hydraulic Bow Thruster 160 kgf with 12.3 kW Hydro Motor, Ø250 mm Tunnel
The Vetus BOW160HMD provides 160 kgf hydraulic thrust for reliable manoeuvring on larger vessels. Its continuous operating capability makes it ideal for demanding marine applications where consistent thrust is required. Designed for Ø250 mm tunnels constructed from GRP, steel, or aluminum, the thruster also allows installation as a stern unit for enhanced handling performance.
The hydraulic drive eliminates the need for an onboard high-capacity electrical system. This ensures simplified installation and maintenance, while protecting against electrical overloads. Proportional control compatibility enables precise manoeuvring where required. The thruster can integrate with existing hydraulic systems or operate independently using a dedicated diesel-driven power pack.
A vessel with a dedicated hydraulic power pack benefits from reduced generator capacity requirements, as hydraulic loads are handled mechanically rather than electrically. This system flexibility makes upgrading to hydraulic thrusters straightforward and beneficial for vessel performance and reliability.
