Under-water mounting
Whole thruster (Propulsor + Steering Module) assembled
as a single unit in factory
Traditional solution uses large domes

Under-water mounting
Six small flanges instead of
large domesSteering Module pre-installed
and permanently connected to vessel systemsFast connections between
Propulsor and Steering ModuleOnly Propulsor changed UW –
less lifting capacity needed!Faster change-out and less
space needed onboard
Domeless UW mounting solution

Under-water mounting
Save space onboard
(no storing of large domes)Light flanges are faster
& safer to handleLow weight for
outboard propulsor part – less lifting/crane capacity needed

New patented bearing condition algorithm:Increase uptime

Azipod® – gearless thrusterESPD bearing condition monitoring
ABB have extensive knowledge of
large thruster bearingsPatented bearing health monitoring
algorithm: Early Shock Pulse Detection (ESPD)Indicates start of raceway surface
crack earlier than any other system currently available in the market for large bearingsOriginally developed for 14…22 MW
Azipod units, but benefits also Azipod D power range (up to 7.5 MW)Reduces risk of unplanned
maintenance!

More time to react and plan for the
best mitigating action for defectsBalancing operation power for the
defected thruster reduces the further development of a bearing defectImproves likelihood to continue
the operation till scheduled maintenance to the thruster can be performedBetter knowledge to make
decision of bearing maintenance interval
