The company’s latest range of plug-and-play systems offers full integration with VETUS’ electric propulsion systems.
Vetus has underlined its commitment in the field of electric boating to provide compact, complete, highly efficient, plug-and-play systems that offer full integration with its range of E-DRIVE electric propulsion systems for smooth and silent boating with no emissions.
Vetus’s E-DRIVE electric propulsion systems, E-POD and E-LINE are suitable for both newbuild and refit electric boats. Both packages integrate with NMEA2000 solutions via the Vetus CANV2N CANverter and modular digital CAN bus communication system Vetus V-CAN. Unique to Vetus, this connectivity means the user has crucial visibility of remaining battery charge and runtime when installing the CANNS500 battery monitoring shunt and the CANNME7 multifunction display.
Developed as a standard in-board diesel engine replacement option, the VETUS E-LINE motor suits a range of boats, depending on the required speed and range, covering sail, power, and narrow boats of about 11 m and above, and is designed to fit the existing propulsion foundation and propeller shaft installation.
Compatible with the CANNS500 Digital Battery Monitoring Shunt and CANV2N CANverter series, the new Vetus CANNME7 multifunction display provides this rich and long-awaited intel. When combined with the CANNS500, the shunt takes the damping effect of the big battery out of the mix so that the CANNME7 multifunction display can provide a much more accurate idea of the remaining battery percentage charge and therefore usable range. If the boater pushes the throttle too hard, the range will immediately drop accordingly.
