SP-Sport 175kW

Steerprop SP-Sport 175kW is a shipboard unit in the Bow group, classified in the source as Stern Thrusters / Bow/Stern Thruster. It is normally installed in a bow or stern thruster tunnel/compartment, with the drive motor and hydraulic/electric equipment arranged in an adjacent machinery space. Its primary duty is to generate transverse thrust for low-speed maneuvering, berthing and station keeping. In service it interfaces with electric/hydraulic drive, propeller or pod, seals, gearbox/bearings, control system, switchgear and bridge commands. The source record states a power rating of 175.0 kW for this exact variant; this information is retained unchanged and distinguishes it from neighboring entries in the same product family. For exact limits, settings, test values and approved maintenance criteria, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
