Side-Power 150kg Thruster, 24V, Twin 5-blade Props, Sealed Gearleg, 215mmThe SE 150/215T meets the requirements of the modern yachts – high power in a compact tunnel diameter. The SE150/215T is our most powerful alternative for the compact 215mm tunnel diameter. The SE150/215T includes all the important and unique Side-Power features and qualities.Specifications:Thrust @21VDC330 lbs (150 kg)Thrust @24VDC400 lbs (182 kg)Typical Boat Size44-64′ (14-20m)Tunnel Diameter (I.D.)8.46″ (215 mm)Power @ 21V11.8 hp (8.8 kw)Recommended Fuse Size400 Amps (SMANL400)Minimum Battery Capacity1064 CCA SAEFuse Size400 AmpApproximate Ship Weight (lbs)87Features:The gearhouse / drive legs of most Sleipner DC Electric thrusters are now fully galvanically isolated / separated from the electric motor and motor bracket. This ensures that even if there is an accidental short circuit or a current leak for other reasons, the immersed parts are not effected as they could be with direct electric contact.Achieved by composite bushings around the bolts and beneath the washers and a bushing in the motor bracket electrically isolating the drive housing from the motor bracket.Available on DC electric models with flexible couplers only, where the flexible coupler provides galvanic separation of the motor and gearleg shaft.Sealed drive lubricationSealed gearleg with long-life “mechanical” seal where highly polished ceramic and carbon surfaces form the only moving sealing surfaces, ensuring protection against damaging water intrusion into the gear leg. Pre-filled with special gear oil for lifetime lubrication.”Mechanical” seals with surfaces of ceramic and carbon for ultimate security against water intrusionTwin PropellersThe twin propeller system can give more thrust than a single propeller system in the same tunnel diameter. This is our choice for our mid-range models where high thrust is required in a small tunnel diameter. Due to the compact design and high performance, the twin models have become the thrusters of choice among boat builders around the world.Q-propellerThe new 5 blade special skew propellers are the result of over 2 years of development work and thousands of tests. They have been designed to reduce the noise level, while maintaining the exceptional efficiency of the old 4 blade Sleipner propellers. This goal was achieved, and we even chose to make them a little bit more aggressive on some models, increasing the thrust on some thrusters about 5%. Please see individual information on each new thruster for more details.Noise reductions of up to 75% measured in controlled environmentsThe expected and tested normal noise reduction in average installations: 20-40%Will be delivered on all Sleipner models except models with 300mm and 385mm tunnel diameterUpgrade kits are available for most SP series thrusters with special adaptorsIntelligent power controlThe Sleipner unique thruster controller that intelligently protects the thruster from potential inherent problems in all high current applications as well as user faults. It includes several important safety features imperative in a product with such high power, run by DC electrics, as a thruster.Provides delay between drive directionsMonitors solenoid functions to reduce the chance of solenoid lock-inWill stop the thruster in case of a lockedin solenoid, without extra user action and even without controlling a main switch.Mesurements:MeasurementsValue(H) Height412mm / 16.22in(L) Length245mm / 9.65in(W) Width292mm / 11.50in(ID) Internal Diameter215mm / 8.46in(WD) Water Depth215mm / 8.46in(TL) Recommended Tunnel Length276mm / 10.87in(TL min.)
