Description

Thrustmaster’s Integrated Diesel – Hydraulic Outboard Propulsion Units are self – contained azimuthing thruster packages available from 100HP (75kW) to 300HP (224kW) for main propulsion and positioning of barges, workboats and river craft. The units feature 360° steering with 90° or 180° hydraulic power kick-up and optional propeller depth adjustment. Available with or without nozzles which increase slow speed forward thrust by an average of 30%. Thrustmaster’s Integrated Outboard Propulsion Units are designed for propulsion of heavy displacement hulls. The units provide unprecedented slow speed maneuverability because of their ability to steer the propeller in any direction and their infinite propeller speed control. They are ideal propulsors for river ferries, inland and coastal construction and maintenance barges, aquaculture, small dredges, bow boats, military landing craft and causeways. They are virtually maintenance free and provide years of operation in the harshest environments. The hydraulic drive is especially suited for shallow, brown water applications where debris in the water and obstructions on the bottom are encountered. The hydraulic transmission provides instant overload relief of propeller drive and tilt mechanism, protecting the drive and outboard leg from mechanical failure. The rugged hydrostatic drive provides fully proportional propeller speed control in forward and reverse while the engine runs at a constant speed reducing fatigue and increasing engine life. Conversion of a dumb barge or unpowered vessel can be done in as little as a few hours and does not require modification of the hull.
