The UltraJet range is capable of absorbing powers up to a maximum of 1,268 kW (1700 bhp)in high-speed craft. In many cases this can be achieved without the need for a gearbox.
UltraJets are supplied as compact propulsion packages, with fully integrated control systems mounted on the jet and all cables supplied with durable waterproof connectors for "plug and play".
The basic components of the waterjet is an axial flow impeller (single or two stage), made of stainless steel to ensure maximum durability in contaminated water conditions. It is matched to the power curve of the selected engine/gearbox. The impeller is supplied in four- or -five blade options to suit the specified power and craft duty.
Constructed from marine grade aluminium alloy, the impeller casing incorporates a stainless steel liner to provide maximum durability and to allow for service replacement, if required.
Control Systems
Steering and reverse control system options are available to best suit the type of craft and the operating environment. Hydro-mechanical reverse deflector controls operated by conventional cable systems can be supplied where electro-hydraulic systems would be considered un desirable for use.
Full electro-hydraulic controls can be supplied for the steering and reverse deflector operation. Exceptional craft manoeuvrability is achieved with UltraJets and our Joystick Control systems. Options are available for either engine-driven or electrically driven pumps providing hydraulic power for the control systems.
