Transcript EXTURN - Frioextrem

The external BOW and STERN THRUSTER
Docking without compromise !
EXTURN – Basics
The idea for tunnel thrusters came up in the 70´s and wasn’t
worked over since…concept is outdated !
EXTURN has been invented by an experienced group of sailors and designed by highly
qualified engineers in 2003/2004. After extensive tests of the entire system and all components
in a sophisticated test channel and on test boats, EXTURN has been released for sale in 2007.
Marinno is the only thruster company with inhouse testing environment.
Constructional Benefits:
+ sealed unit, fully protected drive components
+ no explosion risk
+ great installation/operation convenience
+ maintenance-free
EXTURN – Benchmarking Results
 Best performance - ideal leverage, no cavitation
 Lowest electricity consumption – approx.50%
 Shortest and easiest installation – no hull destruction
EXTURN
tunnel
 No waiting and drying time – mountable during season
 Least interior space requirements
pivot point
 Longest run-time - motor cooled by seawater
 Min. 80 % less noise emmission
 Competitive system costs – lowest installation/running costs
 Completely maintenance-free – no anode and spare part changes
EXTURN‘s Performance Benefits
 Most forward to the bow, better leverage
 Short transverse channel
EXTURN
tunnel
 Deeper under the water line
 No ventilation of the propeller
Minimum 40 % more efficiency as comparable tunnel-systems
Considerable shorter reaction time
pivot point
EXTURN‘s Hydrodynamic Shape
The hydrodynamic shape of EXTURN results in minimal drag, it is comparable
with a folding propeller! Experienced regatta sailors couldn’t measure
speed loss using GPS. Mathematically EXTURN results in a maximum speed
loss of 0.2 knots at 10 knots cruising speed.
EXTURN creates less drag then tunnel thrusters – Why?
The flow speed at the tunnel´s position is minimum twice as fast as
at the bottom of the hull with EXTURN (see cross section of hull).
This results in at least the fourfold retention force for a tunnel thruster
which slows down the boat significantly.

Marinno-designed and special
built motors guarantee outstanding performance.
Up to 5 minutes
nonstop operating time.
Endurance approved for
more then 200 hours….
…20 years – lifetime.
Maintenance-free !
Exturn housing
Extreme robust, special coated
Aluminium housing.
Seawater-resistant and redox-free.
3-Blade-Vector-Propeller
purpose-designed by Marinno
to ensure highest efficiency.
E-BOX – Unique Offering
EXTURN is only system which comes with an E-BOX at no extra charge :
 Operation of up to 3 controls
 Easy Plug & Play connections
 Automatic command among different controls
 Automatic shut down of the controls in case of inactivity (10 min.)
 Temperature monitoring of motor (flashing LED on control panel)
 Gear protection – delay of redirecting (left / right)
 Compatible to non-EXTURN control panels
Relays – Designed to Last
Even with the relays EXTURN relies on quality :
 Waterproof capsuled special relays (IP 65)
 Maximum function warranty (200 A continuous current)
 No malfunctioning – installation in any position possible
 Design prevents sticking of contacts even at continous use
