THE PROVEN PROPULSION AND


MANOEUVRING SYSTEM EVEN FOR
EXTREME OPERATING CONDITIONS
The SCHOTTEL Pump-Jet is a special-purpose azimuth
thruster that provides full thrust in all directions. It is distinguished by its compact and robust design and covers a power
range from 50 to 3500 kW. A particular characteristic of the
SPJ is its ability to operate in shallow water. Supplying full

thrust at a minimum immersion of 150 to 750 mm, depending


on the model involved, it can also be used on vessels with a
very shallow draught. The SCHOTTEL SPJ has proved its
worth as a reliable manoeuvring system, take-home device
and main propulsion unit on a wide range of watercraft.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
1

An impeller draws water into the Pump-Jet; the slow intake speed and the
protective grid prevent foreign objects from entering.

and charged with energy by increasing static pressure.

The water is then pushed into the diffuser by the impeller

The water is ejected at very high velocity through the outlet nozzles at an
output angle of approx. 15.

ADVANTAGES
Fully-capable azimuth thruster
Compact design, space-saving installation with minimum
displacement loss
Installation flush with the hull, therefore no increase in
resistance and no risk of collision with floating debris
Ideal for operation in extremely shallow waters
Protective grid at the intake prevents damage by floating
debris
Grounding possible. Hardly any risk of damage when the
vessel contacts the ground

Low volume flow on the intake side and also a low intake
velocity. Therefore no risk of vessel becoming stuck due to
suction, and low tendency of drawing in objects from the
ground
Low-noise and low-vibration operation due to encapsulated
design allows supreme comfort on pleasure craft (yachts)
Wide variety of installation options for different vessel
designs
Drive options: diesel engine, electric or hydraulic motor
Can be used as manoeuvring aid, additional booster or takehome device

WHETHER AS MAIN OR AUXILIARY


PROPULSION UNIT THE SPJ KEEPS
YOU ON COURSE CONSTANTLY
THE SPJ AS A MAIN PROPULSION
UNIT FOR EXTREME CONDITIONS
As a main propulsion unit for coasters and inland vessels, the
SCHOTTEL Pump-Jet gives reliable service wherever conventional propeller drives cannot be used due to restricted draught.
With its compact design, low buoyancy loss and low suction,
the SPJ generates high thrust in any direction desired even in
extremely shallow waters. Like all SCHOTTEL products, it
offers very smooth operation and excellent manoeuvring
characteristics.

THE SPJ AS AUXILIARY DRIVE,


MANOEUVRING SYSTEM AND
TAKE-HOME DEVICE
Compact design, low-noise operation and various installation
possibilities make the SPJ an ideal auxiliary propulsion unit for
a wide range of vessels. Its ability to deliver thrust efficiently
for vessel speeds up to 11 knots enables it also to act as a
manoeuvring aid when the vessel is under way. As a redundant
drive, it additionally serves as a take-home device, thereby providing increased safety for hazardous goods carriers and passenger vessels.

APPLICATIONS

STEERING SYSTEMS FOR THE


SCHOTTEL PUMP-JET

Numerous armed forces around the world rely on the SCHOTTEL


Pump-Jet, as excellent manoeuvrability and robust, beachable
propulsion systems are essential for many military applications.
With its 360 steerability and integration into the hull, the SPJ
satisfies the most demanding requirements.

A large number of steering and monitoring systems are available for SCHOTTEL Pump-Jets, in order to meet all necessary
technical requirements. We are able to offer both time-dependent and way-dependent steering systems in a wide spectrum
of different configurations. This is rounded off by an extensive
range of interface modules to other systems, such as VDR, DP
or Autopilot.
