Core Product Advantages

➊

Integrated Pod Layout

The motor is installed inside the underwater pod, eliminating the traditional long shaft system, shortening the power transmission path, greatly reducing mechanical loss and improving power output efficiency.

➋

Optimized Hydrodynamic Shape

Streamlined pod housing matched with stabilizer fins reduces navigation resistance, suppresses water flow turbulence, improves vessel stability and lowers sailing noise.

➌

Fully Sealed Anti-Corrosion Structure

Main body adopts hard anodized aluminum alloy with reliable static sealing, enabling stable long-term operation in fresh water and coastal seawater with strong salt spray resistance.

➍

Brushless Permanent Magnet Drive

Built-in high-performance underwater brushless motor delivers abundant torque and smooth speed regulation with lower energy consumption, achieving outstanding endurance under continuous cruising conditions.

➎

Bi-directional Forward & Reverse Operation

Supports continuous bi-directional speed regulation for flexible forward and reverse navigation, enabling low-speed stable cruising and attitude adjustment with smooth control experience.

➏

Fast Installation & Integration

Standard top mounting flange removes complicated shaft machining, suitable for new ship construction and electric conversion of existing vessels, shortening project development cycle.
