QUANTUM THRUSTERS-
QUIET, EFFICIENT, POWERFUL!
Our goal is to design, engineer, and produce the finest thrusters in the world. Our approach to materials, construction, fit, and finish is to get the best and make it better- our reputation for only the highest quality yacht equipment, engineered and produced to exacting standards and backed up worldwide, is part of every piece of equipment that we sell.

Up to 250 HP:
- Integrated system hydraulic- open loop.
- Hydraulics- engine or generator driven pumps. Direct or belt drive, Quantum engineered for your application.
Our hydraulic systems run at what is considered today the higher end of the medium pressure range, 3900-4200 psi, with multiple benefits:
- Smaller tubing, as higher pressure equates to lower flow rates. Smaller pumps and motors.
- Smaller pumps and motors.
- Less heat.
- Less noise. Tubing and hose configurations, materials, and practices also are part of engineering a hydraulic system for quiet and efficient operation. Our support system will help the installer achieve the highest possible noise reduction.
- Less fluid in the system. Smaller reservoirs, less weight. More space in the engine room or machinery space.
- Smaller tubing, less flow, and higher pressure also equate to less pressure drop on longer runs. This is especially important for bow thrusters and other bow users, generally the equipment located the farthest from the source of hydraulic power.
- Fully proportional controls in closed loop configuration.
- Bent axial piston motors- variable delivery with proportional pressure control. Small, light, efficient. Often, the space required to mount a large hydraulic motor running on a low pressure/high flow open loop system will create a problem at the bow of the boat. Space is at a premium everywhere on board, but having to raise the decking in the forward compartments to accommodate last century's motor for your thruster is anathema to the Quantum approach.
