Description

Elevate your on-water experience with the VETUS HY230 Flexible Motor Support, the premium solution for isolating marine engine vibrations and noise. Engineered by VETUS, a world leader in marine systems, this motor mounting is designed to deliver unparalleled comfort and performance, transforming your vessel’s propulsion system into a quiet and smooth powerhouse. Say goodbye to distracting rattles and resonant hums, and enjoy the peace and tranquility of your time on the water.
The exceptional performance of the VETUS engine mounting type HY230 stems from its advanced design, which is extremely suitable for application with marine diesel engines. It operates by virtue of a low vertical stiffness, combined with high stiffness in the longitudinal direction. This sophisticated engineering means the mount effectively absorbs and dampens engine vibrations in the vertical plane, which are the primary cause of noise and discomfort, while remaining incredibly firm against fore-and-aft forces. This high longitudinal stiffness is crucial for expertly absorbing the considerable thrust generated by the propeller, ensuring optimal power transfer and protecting the entire drivetrain from undue stress.
This sturdy vibration damper is built to handle demanding applications. It has a maximum load of 230 kg per support and is suitable for engines in the power range between 30 and 125 kW (equivalent to 40 – 170 HP). This makes the HY230 a versatile and robust choice for a wide spectrum of mid-range to larger pleasure craft and commercial vessels. Its superior design makes it a perfect fit for a variety of installations, and it is suitable for engines whether or not provided with a thrust bearing, offering boat builders and owners exceptional flexibility.
Beyond its core damping capabilities, the VETUS HY230 is crafted for durability and ease of use. The robust construction ensures long-lasting reliability in the harsh marine environment, resisting degradation from fuel, oil, and saltwater. A key feature is the integrated height adjustment, which greatly simplifies the critical process of engine alignment, saving time during installation and ensuring a perfect setup for optimal performance. For complete peace of mind, the mount also incorporates an internal fail-safe design, providing an essential layer of security that prevents excessive engine movement in extreme conditions. By investing in the VETUS HY230 Flexible Motor Support, you are choosing an elite component that enhances onboard comfort, increases the longevity of your propulsion equipment, and ensures a smoother, quieter, and more enjoyable boating experience
