Safety features on thruster (see seperate sheet for control panels): - Forced shut-down by overheat sensor in motor - All internal leads with extra insulation of webbed silicon increase resistance to heat and mechanical wear and connectors have positive lockign so that you have to pull by the insulation to release, can not be pulled off by the wires or loosen by themselves. - IPC Standard electronic control box for protection against: - direct drive direction change - unique, patented protection of solenoid from extra wear and damages in low voltage situations for example caused by drained or damaged batteries as well as “auto-stop” without the need for the skipper to shut down the main switch immidiately to stop the thruster in case of a solenoid lock-in ** - auto-stop if control signal is continous for more than 3 minutes to protect against potential short circuit in control cables.
