Channel Thruster
The V-JET is suitable as a bow thruster, primary, and emergency propulsion and can be powered electrically, hydraulically, or by diesel.
The distinctive feature of the V-JET is that the thrust is uniform in all 360 degrees around the unit. Additionally, the design includes a slanted propeller, allowing the water to flow through the unit in a wave-like motion. These two aspects ensure that the V-JET is highly efficient for propulsion at higher speeds.
The V-JET is a compact unit that can be easily installed, making it an ideal choice for retrofitting into an existing ship.
The system can be powered electrically, hydraulically, or by a diesel engine. Verhaar Omega offers not only a horizontal configuration for the drive motor but also a vertical configuration for both the electric and hydraulic versions.
