VETUS ignition-protected bow thruster with 35kgf thrust force, suitable for boats between 7.5 and 11.5m in length. 12V version.
In compartments with a gasoline/petrol engine, tank or fuel line, or which is used for propane gas storage, a thruster must be ignition protected to avoid the possibility of fumes or gas reaching the internal mechanism of the thruster and causing an explosion. All models come with the required seals, electrical connectors, fastening components and an automatic fuse which can be reset externally without having to open the housing. Furthermore the housing is an excellent protection against corrosion.
