UNIQUE ROBUSTNESS OF THE MOTOR SYSTEM
Usually housings of electric motors for boats are made from a less sturdy plastic or are simple welded constructions which aren´t often seawater resistant. All housings of the Aquamot Professional line are casted with a permanent seawater resistant aluminium and are coated with 6-layer additionally. Furthermore, an extra anode protects the motor against corrosion. All other components of the motor (suspension, etc.) are also manufactured from the same material. The propeller shaft is designed with a solid stainless-steel material and also the propeller is made from brazen. All other components (lever, controller, etc.) are produced from a high-strength and very light aluminium which is also used in the aircraft industry. All of this is the result that Aquamot Professional motors are one of the most stable and durable motors in market.
WELL THOUGHT OUT
Only AC asynchronous motors (=brushless motors) are used at the Aquamot Professional Line. Conventionally a lot of unnecessary electronics as sensors, PCB board inside the motor housing, etc. is needed for the operation. It is well known that water and electronic components don´t operate together in a harmony and therefore this can often lead to troubles. All Aquamot motors are designed without any electronics components inside the motor housing. This looks simpler but is much more difficult and complex. This system has been well used in industry and commercial shipping for several years.
SUPERIOR SMOOTH OPERATION
For reaching an acceptable rpm for an electric boat motor it is often used a gearbox. The losses of these gearboxes reach up to 30% and they are very loud. Aquamot only use direct drives with a low rpm with a superior smooth operation.
FLOW-OPTIMIZED DRIVES
Customary underwater drives are often simple plastic or welded constructions which are not flow-optimized. The result is a high resistance, a bad steering characteristic of the motor if the propeller is not rotating and a bad upstream flow to the propeller. All these things are considered during the development of Aquamot motors through an exact computation of the streaming. This computation has been also used at the commercial shipping for several years.
INCOMPAREABLE CONTROLLERS
Controllers and electronic components (contactors, fuses, etc.) are often mounted thoughtlessly at a metal board and don´t afford any protection against spray water or wet fender. Aquamot controllers are integrated in compact and high-quality aluminium housing with Plug & Play connections. Furthermore, additional master switches are not necessary due to the intelligent circuit. Therefore, the Aquamot controllers provide the max. safety and ensure an easy installation
SINGULAR FULL-COLOR ON-BOARD COMPUTER
Conventionally it is used monochrome displays for electric motors for boats in sport and leisure boating industry or very expensive colour screens. Aquamot is the first producer of electric motors for boats who offers a full-colour on-board computer. All important information (battery and motor status, etc.) will be displayed. Some adjustments can be changed through an intelligent BUS system.
MASTERFULLY SAFETY FUNCTIONS
Aquamot propulsion system has several safety functions. Mechanical protections like a predetermined breaking point at the fin and electronic protections like over- and under-voltage for avoiding a deep-discharge of the batteries, overcurrent, etc. are standards at Aquamot Professional line.
