Controllable-Pitch Propeller (CPP) · Shaft Line & Propulsion
Maintenance and reliability are at the heart of the STT 170 SCHOTTEL TransverseThruster, ensuring that vessel operators experience minimal downtime and optimal performance. This robust thruster is designed to deliver maximum thrust with a compact design, making it suitable for a wide range of applications from short docking maneuvers to continuous offshore operations under dynamic positioning. The STT 170 features an advanced propeller design that minimizes the clearance between the tunnel and propeller, enhancing efficiency and generating greater thrust. Optional SCHOTTEL-exclusive features such as LeaCon or HTG can be integrated for additional benefits. LeaCon is a reliable seal monitoring system certified by DNV, which prevents contamination of seawater by operating materials and ensures safe and continuous operation. The High Torque Gear (HTG) extends the service life of the gearbox, offering up to 15 percent more drive torque with the same bevel gear dimensions while meeting safety requirements set by classification societies. The thruster can be equipped with an elastically mounted installation for lower noise levels, making it ideal for vessels where passenger comfort is a priority. With power ranging from 245 to 350 kW and a nominal input speed of 1500 or 1800 rpm, the STT 170 offers versatile performance across various vessel types, including naval vessels, chemical tankers, wind turbine installation vessels, and RoPax ferries.
