Ruggedized for ultimate maritime protection
In order to reduce the potential negative effects of vibration, the drives have been ‘ruggedized’. This means that critical components on the PCB have increased protection that significantly reduces the risk of malfunction while at sea.
The printed circuit boards in the drives are all coated in accordance with IEC60721-3-3 class C3C, providing additional protection against moisture and dust.
