Vetus Ignition-Protected Bow Thruster – 125 kgf, 12V, 250mm Tunnel, ISO 8846 (BOW1252DI)
Description
The Vetus BOW1252DI is a 125 kgf bow thruster with an ignition-protected, watertight motor housing compliant with ISO 8846 Marine ‘Ignition Protection’ standard. It is designed for installation in compartments containing petrol engines, fuel tanks, fuel lines, or propane gas storage, where standard thrusters cannot be used safely. The sealed housing prevents fumes or gas from reaching the internal motor mechanism.
All required seals, electrical connectors, and fastening components are included. An automatic fuse for the control loom can be reset externally without opening the housing. The housing also provides excellent corrosion protection. Can be used as a stern thruster with the appropriate kit.
