Ignition Protected Thrusters

The CT45-IP is ideal for motor boats and deep footed sailing yachts ranging from 19’-36'. Manufactured using composite materials, the CT45-IP has a 125mm diameter tunnel.

As small and compact as the CT35-IP, the CT45-IP benefits from an increased thrust rating up to 40/88 (kg/lbs) thanks to its twin propellers. Easy to install and maintenance free, this model integrates all the unique features common to Max Power’s Ignition Protected tunnel thrusters.

 Ignition protected thrusters  are ideal for motor boats. Their unique feature is the totally sealed housing around every electric part. This feature provides optimal ignition protection because it doesn't allow any fuel fumes enter the electric parts and cause spark ignition. In addition, the sealed housing prevents water and humidity from entering the electric parts area and keeps it dry.

* Thrusters are designed to run at 10.75V on 12V units and 22V on 24V units. Higher voltages will result in higher thrust ratings, higher power consumption, and a reduced duty cycle.
* Performance data is given for a thruster installed at an immersion depth of one tunnel’s diameter, in a tunnel no longer than twice the tunnel’s diameter, and this within a variation of + / - 6%. Longer tunnels will result in lower thrust ratings and higher power consumption.
