The Quillshaft version RSVL (PTO/PTH/PTI) with tubular shaft coupling

The Quillshaft version of the gearbox can also supply energy from the propulsion shaft
generators and pumps on the SPTO as PPTO. PTI and PTH modes can also be integrated
into this version of the gearbox. PTH enables the use of the electric generators as
auxil­iary propulsion to be able to guarantee the emergency propulsion of the ship in case
of unforeseen failure of the main diesel engine. The reduced speed in PTH mode can be
alternatively used to navigate critical passages at sea or in ports. PTI works as a booster
to generate additional power for the propulsion from an optional electric generator.
