Electric Inboard Boat Motor | Bellmarine Motors

ELECTRIC BOATING STARTS AT BELLMARINE

In the world of electric propulsion systems Bellmarine sets the standard. Bellmarine is founded in The Netherlands and it’s history goes back over 20 years and with more than 4,000 successful installations on the water worldwide it’s the undisputed world leader of electric inboard boat motor systems. Since 2018 Bellmarine is part of the Italian Transfluid Group and drive systems are produced in Italy and The Netherlands. The emphasis is on high-thrust inboard systems for displacement vessels. However, the Bellmarine range also includes saildrives and outboards for commercial use.

GENERAL BELLMARINE SYSTEM INFORMATION

All motors are Permanent Magnet AC, high effficiency, with IP65 rating.
Intermittent kW: S3 10% – 10′ (1 minute at intermittent power, then reduced for 9 minutes power to return to stable temperature.
Battery bank: 48V, 96V and 144V can be of any chemistry and brand; 288V and 384V needs to be Transfluid battery bank.

RATINGS:

Cruising speed: 70% of rated motor rpm
Light duty: air cooled motor, up to 200 hrs/year, intermittent kW allowed
Medium duty: air cooled motor, up to 500 hrs/year, only nominal kW allowed
Medium duty: liquid cooled motor, up to 1000 hrs/year, intermittent kW allowed
Heavy duty: liquid cooled motor, up to 3000 hrs/year, intermittent kW allowed, max 80% of time at rated rpm

Bellmarine motors have an integrated thrust bearing, but separate thrust bearing is recommended above 20kW.

DRIVEMASTER

For displacement boats up to 30 tons

Ranging from 2 to 55kW at 48V to 144V this air & liquid-cooled electric inboard range is very powerful and comes with an integrated thrust bearing and integrated 12V converter. The DriveMaster is suitable for most shaft-driven displacement craft.
