With the modular PTO- and L- Series gearboxes, Katsa is able to offer optimised solutions for a broad spectrum of different applications.
For marine applications especially versions with wet running multi-plate clutches have been of great interest in the market.
For example our integrated pumpdrive solution has gathered very positive feedback from the fishermen. The plug and play system consists of two pad pump drive with an integrated wet-running clutch on the input shaft. The system is specified for fast running Diesel engines with a slight speed increase for the hydraulic pumps attached. The gearbox is rated for a total power of up to 650kW. The system comes ready assembled and tested with an internal hydraulic system consisting of an integrated oil sump, oil pump, hydraulic valve for regulating the lubrication as well as controlling the wet clutch, oil filter and optional sea water oil cooler.
Combined with Katsa’s micro controller based control system for monitoring and controlling the gearbox functions, Katsa offers a robust, secure and long lifetime solution for all kind of PTO applications. Katsa’s Controller has a local control panel and can be equipped with a remote for the bridge or be integrated in the ships main automation system.
With the modular input configuration, the gearboxes can be mounted whether directly to the fly wheel housing or free standing e.g. on the aft side of a main engine.
Katsa’s modular PTO- and L-Series can also be configured for slow speed engine solutions with a higher ratio for the PTO’s. Also separate clutches for the hydraulic pump actuation can be realised. Also life or clutchable generator solutions or a combination with hydraulic pumps are available.
