E-POD propulsion system 10kW all-in-one plug & play unit. 48V max input 11.3kW

The E-POD is a combination of engine, engine mounts, cooling, reversing clutch, propeller shaft and propeller. In short, a complete all-in-one system.

The E-POD is a space-saving solution and makes an engine room and propeller shaft redundant. The floor space remains completely free. This makes completely new boat designs possible.


Another unique feature of the E-PODs is that there are no rotating or vibrating parts inside the ship. And better yet, there is not even an axle or axle bearing. The propeller hangs under the boat in the water, where the boat is driven directly. The propeller is also the rotor of the efficient permanent magnet induction motor.

To minimize noise, the propeller is specially designed for minimal cavitation, but while maintaining maximum propulsion force. This pod is significantly quieter than other pods.

Maximum engine power and long distances on a single battery charge thanks to efficient engine management and direct 360º water cooling. A full day on the water without any limitations.

VETUS electric boat solutions
Compact, complete, highly efficient, plug & play and suitable for both new and existing vessels, that is how VETUS sees electric sailing.

 

Quietly enjoy electric

Enjoy undisturbed peace, unlimited sailing and a carefree water sports experience at the touch of a button. The smart and modular electric propulsion systems from VETUS are easy to install (also as a refit) and stand for performance, savings and convenience. With an electric propulsion system from VETUS you are always ready for a wonderful time on the water. A whole day of pure enjoyment is now within your reach.

With VETUS E-DRIVES you come closer to yourself, nature, family and friends

Years of development and thousands of hours of testing have been spent developing proprietary technologies that virtually eliminate noise without compromising performance. And because VETUS E-DRIVES comply with all environmental regulations, you can say goodbye to more than just the sound of a diesel engine. Emissions, fumes, exhaust gases and environmental restrictions are also a thing of the past!

 

Experience long, carefree days on the water

VETUS E-DRIVES offer you the optimum sailing comfort. There is no need to wait for the engine to warm up … you step on board and you can go! And thanks to the high starting torque you are quickly underway with an engine that accelerates powerfully and quickly.

You can choose from three propulsion modes: NORMAL, ECO and POWER. In ECO mode, the maximum power of the E-DRIVE is limited, giving you maximum range. POWER mode unleashes peak power for fast manoeuvres. This allows you to achieve up to 13.3 kW at 1,600 rpm.

You never have to worry about your day on the water ending earlier than planned. With VETUS electric propulsion systems you have access to an extensive set of real-time data. You can therefore always keep an eye on your battery and range. And with the right battery bank you can easily sail a whole day.

 

Compact, all-in-one design

Don't judge a VETUS E-DRIVE by its compactness alone. Just because it takes up little space doesn't mean it doesn't have a LOT to offer. VETUS electric propulsion systems offer numerous intelligent boating advantages:

  • Sailing Assist gives you multiple engine mappings with adaptive RPM curve technology for maximum efficiency.
  • The active electric brake technology enables fast and active manoeuvring. Reversing in the blink of an eye or coming to a stop within a boat length is a reality.
  • The advanced engine electronics feature a battery protection function that protects your battery bank from damage and extends its lifespan.
  • The patented engine control unit actively monitors the battery to prevent unwanted damage.
  • The Boosted Battery Charge function allows a 48VDC battery bank to be charged with a 24VDC charger. This innovative solution allows boats to be built with a safer network due to the lower voltage.

Simple refits

VETUS electric propulsion systems are designed for compactness and easy installation. The supplied mounting brackets and engine supports allow for a quick refit. Thanks to the mounting brackets with engine supports that are easily adjustable in height, length and width and of which the angle can be changed (0° or 8°), VETUS E-DRIVES can be installed on almost any existing engine foundation. In addition, VETUS electric propulsion motors are designed to be compatible with your existing propeller and propeller shaft.

 

Costs?

Worried about switching to electric? Don’t be. In the long run, VETUS E-DRIVES will make your boating experience better, cleaner and cheaper. No gaskets, air or fuel filters to replace, no oil to change and no carburetor to clean – that means less downtime and lower maintenance costs. And because you don’t have to pay for fuel either, an electric boat will ultimately be cheaper.
