  • Very simple and robust design
  • Higher efficiency by placing the propeller at an angle of 17 degrees
  • Maximum thrust with minimum immersion
  • 360 degree steering
  • Very favourable price and technology ratio
  • Can be used as an emergency propulsion
  • Compact and easy to install
  • Electric and hydraulic drive options available
Operation

Discover unparalleled thrust with minimal immersion using the Compact Grid – the ultimate marine propulsion solution designed for maximum performance and reliability. Equipped for both standard operation and emergency propulsion, this compact marvel is driven by an electric motor, ensuring seamless power delivery in any situation.

Available in various configurations, including the VCG-400, VCG-600, and VCG-750, the Compact Grid offers versatility tailored to your vessel’s needs. While the VCG-400 and VCG-600 models feature direct propeller placement, the VCG-750 utilizes a reduction gear unit for enhanced efficiency.

Water intake occurs seamlessly through the propeller, angled beneath the vessel, and is expertly guided outward through a hydrodynamic streamlined housing, passing through a steerable grill mechanism. This grill, capable of rotating a full 360 degrees, ensures optimal control and maneuverability in any direction.

Crafted with precision, the Compact Grid boasts a compact gearbox design with minimal exterior pipework, coupled with oil-bath lubrication for the transmission and injection lubrication for critical drive shaft bearings. Standard-equipped with a 4-blade NiAl bronze propeller, this thruster promises durability and efficiency in every voyage.

Ballast Pump

Are you looking for a pump that pumps large amounts of (ballast) water with minimal power? Then the Veth Ballast Pump is a good solution for you.

This pump, developed by Veth Propulsion, can be used in two directions of rotation. Unique in this application is that the piping is reduced to an absolute minimum.

With any bow thruster you have the option to order a ballast pump to go with it.

 

Advantages of the Ballast Pump

  • With little power, large amounts of water displacement
  • Robust yet compact
  • Oil-lubricated propeller shaft
  • High quality seals
  • Easy to assemble and disassemble
  • Great ease of use
  • In-house engineering
