Product description

Cooling system for thrusters according to DIN 15430. Protection against overheating.
Even existing and in use thruster types can be equipped and/or upgraded with the cooling system type RCS.

• Upgrade function for thrusters
• Heating protection
• Extended service life

Functional principle

The max. surface temperature of thrusters should not exceed 70°C. Seals could be damaged at higher temperatures.
The cooling system generates an airflow which produces a forced convection in addition to the normal heat emission. It is wired according to the electrical connection plan parallel to the thruster. The thruster and the cooling system is working synchronized.

The cooling system may also consist of two fans if the ambient temperature is especially high.

Technical benefits

Heating protection because of:

• Especially high ambient temperatures (equator, in casting houses, in steel plants, …)
• Brake system is integrated in a compact housing
