Furthermore, the high efficiency of a Azipod® system will support reduced fuel cost and thereby reduce emissions.ģ. The simplicity of the Azipod® propulsion supports limited down time and need for maintenance.
Safe and flexible operations are enabled by the maneuverability of Azipod® units. Improved safety and redundancy, reduced lifecycle costĪzipod® propulsion is built to achieve optimal reliability (0.996 availability) and can be delivered with various levels of redundancy, for example double winding, redundant drives and redundant steering system. To read more about the proved fuel savings that can be enabled by the Azipod® propulsion, read more here.Ģ. Flexibility to optimize hull structure and (5) reduced weight of the vessel.No shaftline system with losses and added resistance.Permanent magnet motor technology for maximum output.Pulling propeller in an undisturbed wake field.No mechanical losses from a gearless system.Some of the key reasons why the Azipod® propulsion can save up to 20% of the fuel compared to a shaft line system are: Proven ability to reduce fuel consumption by up to 20% compared to traditional shaftline systems
