SCHIEDAM – The new E-Drives from VETUS let you enjoy nature at its best. They combine the silence of a sailboat with the maneuverability of a motorboat. VETUS’ plug & play E-Drives are compact and and suitable for both new builds and repowering/retrofitting.
The zero-emission E-Drives use the V-CAN bus control system and meet all emission requirements. VETUS calculates the complete package, from shore power to prop, resulting in a highly efficient installation.
The patented VETUS E-Drive motor controllers (MCVs), specially developed for electric boating, feature an integrated step-up battery charger capable of charging a 48V lead-acid battery bank using a 24V power supply.
Another unique feature: active braking gives users natural and full control over the boat.
VETUS offers E-LINE in-line propeller shaft solutions and the innovative compact E-POD solution. The motor selection will depend upon multiple parameters like hull shape, so contact your dealer for detailed advice.
The E-LINE motor range fits existing propulsion foundations and propeller shaft installations. The supplied Swap & Go mounting brackets can easily be adjusted in height and set to angle the shaft to 0° or 8°making repowering and connecting to an existing propeller shaft a simple task.
The E-POD combines the motor, suspension, cooling, gearbox, clutch, propeller shaft and propeller into one complete system. This space-saving solution makes the engine box and through-boat propeller shaft redundant, opening up the floor space. This makes a completely new boat design possible.
As every boat is different, so calculate the system you need with the VETUS E-DRIVE configurator.
