Propellers are crucial for a ship’s propulsion. Fouling on the propeller disrupts the water flow and directly affects efficiency.
Even a thin biofilm can cause a noticeable drop in performance.
SmartFlow prevents fouling on the propeller. The system transmits ultrasonic sound waves through the surface, creating vibrations that disrupt the adhesion of microorganisms. This prevents fouling from taking hold and keeps the propeller clean, ensuring that flow and efficiency are not compromised.
A clean propeller ensures maximum propulsion efficiency. Performance and fuel consumption remain consistent, and mechanical stress is reduced. As a result, components last longer and the entire powertrain remains in optimal condition.
This ensures that the powertrain continues to operate reliably and prevents unnecessary costs.
A sustainable choice: SmartFlow operates entirely without chemicals. No toxic substances and no environmental impact from cleaning. You’ll comply with the strictest environmental regulations and reduce your ship’s ecological footprint.
