SR100/185T Retracting Thruster Kit, 12V, 185mm

Side-Power's SR100/185T can be installed as a bow or stern thruster, allowing improved control of the vessel. The DC powered thruster is designed to maximize thrust while minimizing amp draw. Featuring 5-bladed skew back twin rotating propellers, it is purpose designed for the 185mm tunnel. The SR100/185T is one part of a complete Side-Power thruster system, including tunnel, controls, cables, fuses and battery switches.

Features & Benefits

• Plug and Play S-Link two-way communication control system
• Compact dimensions
• Fast deployment time
• Easy to use control panel (SM8700) with status feedback from thruster (sold separately)
• Hatch deploys straight out of hull for minimal cutout gaps, creating minimal drag when thruster is retracted
• Pressure sensor on door automatically retracts thruster when boat speed is too high
• Thruster lock out: thruster is disabled when fully or partially retracted

Performance

• Propulsion technology know-how maximizing amount of thrust from the system
• Lightweight composite propellers reduce work needed to get up to speed and stop rotation
• Streamlined gear housing reducing turbulence in the tunnel and maximizing flow

Installation

• Compact sized units to reduce the amount of interior volume needed
• Simple Plug and Play wiring
• Easily accessible battery terminals
• Fast and safe propeller mounting with lock nut
• GRP and composite bolt-on stern thruster tunnel kits pre-drilled for ease of installation
• Easy access zinc anodes allowing quick and simple changing
• Sealed gearleg so no messy oil fill-ups needed during installation

Safety and Reliability

• Overheat thermal switch on electric motor stops operation, preventing damage to the electric motor
• Mechanical protection of drive gear through flexible coupling between gearleg and motor
• Self-locking high pressure contacts extend solenoid life and improve current conduction
• Extra insulation to help prevent wear and heat damage of internal wiring
• Non-conductive and self-extinguishing solenoid covers
